Abstract: An encryption and decryption method in a virtualization system is disclosed. The virtualization system includes a VMM and an encryption and decryption virtual machine. The VMM includes a control module, the encryption and decryption virtual machine records a first association relationship between a hard disk image identifier and a key, the key includes an encryption key, and the virtualization system records a second association relationship between the hard disk image identifier and a hard disk image attribute. The control module in the VMM is configured to determine whether to-be-written data needs to be encrypted and forward the to-be-written data, which makes it easy to implement a function and reduces system complexity of the VMM. In addition, encryption or decryption is processed without occupying a resource in the VMM.

Abstract: Some embodiments of a method for withdrawal a message include receiving, by a mobile device, an input to send a first message to a first recipient, the first message containing at least one image or video. The mobile device processes the first message for transmittal to the first recipient. In response to detecting a request to withdraw the first message within a timeout period, the mobile device determines that the first message has not been sent from the mobile device and terminates the processing of the first message for sending.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, computer program products, and systems for fulfilling a service chain request. Embodiments of the present invention can be used to collect network data of a plurality of instances of services and connections between the plurality of instances of services and redefine service chains to direct flow to an alternative instance of a service responsive to determining that an instance of a service in a service chain has become inaccessible. Embodiments of the present invention can be used to fulfill a service chain request and avoid one or more instances of services (and/or connections there between) that could cause a delay between transmitting data packets through the service chain.

Abstract: A network forwarder can use a Manifest to allocate resources in a content centric network (CCN). Specifically, the forwarder can include a Manifest table which stores a Manifest state for a set of pending Manifests. Each Manifest can include a name associated with a data collection, and includes a list of references to Content Objects that make up the data collection. When the forwarder receives a Manifest for a data collection, the forwarder creates an entry for the Manifest in the Manifest table, and allocates one or more resources for processing the Manifest. When the forwarder receives an Interest, the forwarder performs a lookup in the Manifest table based on the Interest's name to determine whether the Interest is associated with a pending Manifest. If the Interest matches a Manifest state stored in the Manifest table, the forwarder processes the Interest and the Manifest based on the Manifest state.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer readable medium is disclosed for receiving in a client node a timing command indicating a time at which to display a presentation portion comprising a first stream content and a second stream content and synchronizing display of the first stream content with the second stream content to the client node using a stream delay parameter, wherein the delay parameter accounts for the propagation time difference between the first stream content and the second stream content, wherein the first stream content and the second stream content are synchronously rendered at the client node at a time derived from the time indicated by the timing command and the stream delay parameter.

Abstract: A method and associated computer system. A composed message portion, of an electronic message, that includes a hyperlink is sent to a set of content rendering emulators. Each emulator is configured to emulate a rendering of content accessible through the hyperlink on a respective particular platform. An emulation result is received from the set of content rendering emulators. The emulation result is indicative of the emulated rendering of the content accessible through the hyperlink on the respective particular platforms emulated by the content rendering emulators. It is determined whether the emulation result indicates that the content accessible through the hyperlink can be rendered in accordance with defined rendering criteria on at least one of the respective platforms prior to transmission of a message including the message portion, and if so then a validation message is generated, and if not then a warning message is generated.

Abstract: A system including a metrics server and a messaging server is provided. The metrics server receives traffic data describing instant messages sent via the messaging server, and from the traffic data generates and updates suspicion indices corresponding to the computing devices that sent the messages. The suspicion indices are passed to the messaging server, which can modify its handling of subsequent messages based on the suspicion indices of the senders.

Abstract: Described are various embodiments of a user content sharing system and method with automated external content integration. In one embodiment, a system and method are provided in which a graphical user interface (GUI) is rendered on each system users' personal communication device. The GUI produces a content selection function selecting, under user operation, user content for sharing, and a sharing platform selection function selecting, under user operation, one or more sharing platforms. The system further comprise a digital content integrator communicatively linked to the user interface to gain access to the selected user content in response to the content selection function, the integrator having access to stored external content distinct from user content. The integrator integrates the external content with the selected user content to output integrated content.
