  • Patent number: 12143265
    Abstract: Methods and systems for managing entitlements for data processing systems are disclosed. A management controller for the data processing system may utilize an out of band communication channel to obtain a list of the entitlements for the data processing system from a management server. The management controller may compare the features included in the list of the entitlements to features included in a list of existing enabled features for the data processing system to obtain a difference. The management controller may modify operation of hardware components of the data processing system to resolve the difference. By doing so, the management controller may monitor entitlements for the data processing system, the entitlements being based on user subscriptions for features of the data processing system.

  • Patent number: 12137145
    Abstract: A system is disclosed that includes capabilities by which a nested sub-resource residing in a service tenancy can access a customer-owned resource residing in a customer tenancy without the use of a cross-tenant policy. The disclosed system provides the ability for a nested sub-resource residing in a service tenancy to obtain the resource principal identity of a higher-level resource residing in the customer tenancy and use the identity of the higher-level resource to access a customer-owned resource residing in the customer tenancy. Using the resource principal identity of its higher-level resource, the sub-resource can access a customer-owned resource that resides in a customer tenancy in a seamless way without having to write a cross-tenancy policy statement that provides permission to the sub-resource to access the customer-owned resource.

  • Patent number: 12132644
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes establishing, for each hop in pathways of a network, a relation between a desired reliability and channel error. Based on the established relations, a maximum number of copies of packets to send from a source in the network to a target in the network is determined. An overhead associated with sending packets from the source to the target in the network is determined for each of the hops, and a first sum of such overheads is also determined. An overhead associated with sending an acknowledgement packet to the source is determined for each of the hops. A second sum is a sum of the overheads associated with sending the acknowledgement packet to the source. In response to a determination that a sum of the first sum and the second sum is less than a predetermined threshold value, the pathways are used.

  • Patent number: 12063142
    Abstract: A computing system identifies mitigation actions in response to failures within a computer network. A service level objective is obtained by the computing system for client-resource data flows traversing the computer network between client-side and resource-side nodes. Indication of a failure event at a network location of the computer network is obtained. For each mitigation action of a set of candidate mitigation actions, an estimated impact to a distribution of the service level objective is determined for the mitigation action by applying simulated client-resource data flows to a network topology model of the computer network in combination with the mitigation action and the failure event. One or more target mitigation actions are identified by the computing system from the set of candidate mitigation actions based on a comparison of the estimated impacts of the set of candidate mitigation actions.

  • Patent number: 12028391
    Abstract: A system and method for controlling multi-party communication during video conferences communicatively connects with at least two participating terminals, each manned by one participant in the conference. A voice acquisition module acquires speech and video at each participating terminal. A recognition module acquires information as to an action state of a participant in the video and audio of what participant is saying, and determines whether the action of participant includes speaking movements and whether the audio includes what is being said by the participant. A control module can control the volume of other participating terminals and adjust the volumes of microphones of simultaneous speakers, to be louder, fainter, or muted, depending on assigned priority of each participant, for orderly control of conferences and as an overall recording.
