Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an image generation unit configured to generate an image that is changed according to operation commands received from a terminal and to be displayed at the terminal; a video-coding area determining unit configured to identify, in the image, a video-coding area that is changed within a predetermined period of time for a number of times greater than a first threshold and to be encoded according to a video compression format; an estimation unit configured to estimate a maximum data rate based on a round trip time of the network; a filtering unit configured to thin out the operation commands according to a thin-out rate when the operation commands are of a predetermined type and the estimated maximum data rate is less than a second threshold; and a threshold changing unit configured to change the first threshold based on the thin-out rate.

Abstract: A method for improved end-user experience in an enterprise network is disclosed. In one embodiment, key performance indicators (KPIs) of network devices, applications and input services are determined. Further, KPIs of base services are determined using the KPIs of network devices, applications and input services. Furthermore, the KPIs are compared with KPI threshold levels and KPI level alerts are generated. Moreover, key quality indicators (KQIs) of base services are determined using the KPIs. Also, the KQIs are compared with KQI threshold levels and KQI level alerts are generated. Further, a composite service quality (CSQ) index of a composite service is computed using the KQIs. Furthermore, the CSQ index is compared with CSQ index threshold levels and a CSQ level alert is generated. In addition, possible problem conditions are detected and then possible problem scenarios are determined and analyzed. Also, actionable items are identified based on the possible problem scenarios.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides example methods operable by computing device. An example method may include querying a location of a computing device with a first frequency. The method may also include accumulating data on the computing device over a time period. The data may include respective locations of the computing device during the time period with respect to the time of day and at increments based on the first frequency. The method may also include determining a model of the location of the computing device with respect to the time of day based on the accumulated data. The method may also include comparing the current location of the computing device to the model. If the current location of the computing device is consistent with the model, the method may also include querying the location of the computing device with a second frequency.

Abstract: A computer device (200) includes a deployment unit (220) which deploys an application program (100) into a runtime execution environment (203) based on configuration information from a plurality of configuration files (120), including at least one base configuration file (122) and one or more supplementary configuration files (123), wherein a merge unit (220) uses the one or more supplementary configuration files (123) to act upon and modify the configuration information provided in the base configuration file (122). A method of providing configuration files in a computer device (200) includes modifying configuration information provided in the base configuration file (122) using the one or more supplementary configuration files (123) to provide a merged configuration file (124), and deploying the application program (100) into the runtime execution environment (203) based on configuration information from the merged configuration file (124).

Abstract: Interdomain federation, generation or management of a virtual network (slice) that extends among domains can be performed without changing a function of a server or a node of a network domain without a function to manage the other domain. Pseudo node receiving a management message with the same protocol as a general node is added, in interdomain management information from an own domain, the other domain part in management information is received as the management information by the pseudo node (the other domain part is concealed) and when interdomain management information is transmitted to the other domain through the pseudo node by a federation protocol and the pseudo node and the interdomain management information is received from the other domain, the other domain part in the management information is bound as the management information of the pseudo node and transmitted to a management server of own domain.
