Abstract: A multi-path input-output (MPIO) driver in a host server reduces host-copy migration data transmission rate based on decrease in foreground IO response time. A baseline foreground IO response time measured before commencement of the host-copy migration is compared with a reference foreground IO response time measured after commencement of the host-copy migration. Increase in the foreground IO response time, expressed as a percentage or time value, that satisfies a predetermined limit will trigger reduction of the host-copy migration data transmission rate. The reference foreground IO response time is repeatedly measured and updated each time the host-copy migration data transmission rate is decreased.

Abstract: According to an aspect, a computer-implemented method for performing distributed communication operations includes receiving a request, by a first computing system, to perform a distributed communication operation and obtaining, by the first computing system, a tree structure for performing the distributed communication operation, wherein the first computing system is a root node of the tree structure. The method also includes creating, by the first computing system, a message having header information and a payload for the distributed communication operation and transmitting, by the first computing system, a portion of the message to each child node of the first computing system, wherein the portion transmitted to each child node is unique.

Abstract: A novel design of a gateway that handles traffic in and out of a network by using a datapath pipeline is provided. The datapath pipeline includes multiple stages for performing various data-plane packet-processing operations at the edge of the network. The processing stages include centralized routing stages and distributed routing stages. The processing stages can include service-providing stages such as NAT and firewall. The gateway caches the result previous packet operations and reapplies the result to subsequent packets that meet certain criteria. For packets that do not have applicable or valid result from previous packet processing operations, the gateway datapath daemon executes the pipelined packet processing stages and records a set of data from each stage of the pipeline and synthesizes those data into a cache entry for subsequent packets.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods that aid users with hearing and/or speech impediments to have a conversation with a remote phone number without human assistance. In one aspect, an application residing on a user's device, such as a smartphone, tablet computer, laptop, etc., may be used to initiate a phone call to a recipient. Upon initiating the phone call locally, a service residing on the server may receive a request to initiate a connection to the recipient. Once the recipient answers, the user may converse with the recipient by providing text input to their local app. The text input may be transmitted to the service. The service may use a text to speech converter to translate the received text to speech that can be delivered to the recipient.

Abstract: Providing a distributed processing framework. Initially, the process begins by building a server process plug-in by invoking a code generation module to generate required boilerplate and cross-platform code. Then commencing a server process by loading plug-in code and giving it a thread of control. In addition, client machines discovering the existence of a plug-in code being executed. Further, one or more client applications running on a client server at least issuing commands to the plug-in code, monitoring the events of the plug-in code, update the properties of the plug-in code without information regarding the plug-in interface.

Abstract: The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method, an apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium for predicting user attribute. The method comprises acquiring an input of demographic-related information; determining features corresponding to the input of the demographic-related information and a weight corresponding to each feature, where the features comprise a single feature corresponding to each input of the demographic-related information, and/or a cross feature between the at least two single features; predicting user attribute according to each feature and its corresponding weight. Based on the solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the accuracy on the prediction of the user attribute can be effectively improved.

Abstract: The LOCATION-CONSCIOUS SOCIAL NETWORKING APPARATUSES, METHODS, AND SYSTEMS (“LCSN”) transforms user personality and location inputs via LCSN components into match and transaction outputs. LSCN may be a processor-implemented method for location-conscious social networking, involving collecting personality details pertaining to a user, analyzing the personality details and constructing a personality profile for the user. The LCSN may also collect geolocation information from the user and compare it to geolocation data from other users, may use user personality profiles to calculate a compatibility rating between the user and other users, and may send an alert to users if the geolocation data indicates that the user is within a specified distance of another user, and/or if the users are matches for each other. Users may further be able to express anonymous interest in other users by anonymously rating potential matches.

Abstract: A backend computing system may receive first data from a first computing system, where the first data may be an encrypted version of second data that has been generated at the first computing system based on a command at the first computing system. The backend computing system may identify a second computing system different than the first computing system based on a status of the second computing system, and may send the first data to the second computing system to enable the second computing system to decrypt the first data and perform a function with respect to the second data. In some embodiments, the first computing system may generate padded data by adding data to the second data, and send the padded data to the backend computing system. In some embodiments, the first computing system may send random data to the backend computing system.

Abstract: When a user exploits virtualization software and navigates through or to a redirected client drive in a remote session then the file management application may refresh the directory/folder content very slowly, spending significantly more time than expected according to the amount of data, network speed and latency. Whilst this refreshing is being performed no actions with the file management application can be performed by the user. Accordingly to address this a system or method are provided that cache metainformation for files, folders, and subfolders, e.g. upon a network resource, in a driver which responds to a query directory and other related requests by filling a provided buffer with the cached data. Further, this driver may filter out some particular files from the results if a filtering option is selected to further reduce latency.
