  • Patent number: 11778058
    Abstract: An online software platform (OSP) produces, by applying resource digital rules to previous relationship instance data of a primary entity data associated with one or more secondary entities of the domain, a domain resource regarding the domain. The OSP may then determine, by applying an alignment digital rule of the domain to the relationship instance data and the domain resource, whether or not an alignment condition of the domain is met, which indicates whether resources for relationship instances of the primary entity should have been remitted to the domain. If the alignment condition is not met, then the OSP may assemble proposal components, and communicate some of them to the domain on behalf of the primary entity to remit the resources, without initially communicating those proposal components that would reveal the identity of the primary entity.

  • Patent number: 11750704
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for pushing session information to a newly joined node in a cluster of nodes. In the cluster, each node may maintain a session table of existing sessions. One or more nodes may detect a new node has joined the cluster. Each node, responsive to the detection, may apply a hash function on a tuple of each session of the existing sessions in the session table of the node to determine whether one or more existing sessions are identified to be owned by the new node as a result of the hash function. Each node, responsive to identifying that one or more sessions are to be owned by the new node, may push corresponding session information to the new node. The new node may become configured to receive a packet corresponding to the one or more sessions and to process the packet.

  • Patent number: 11722391
    Abstract: In general, the disclosure describes techniques for adaptively determining one or more parameters of a service level agreement of an application. For instance, a network device may monitor round-trip times of a plurality of packets of a data flow of an application being transmitted over a link between an application server and a client device. The network device may determine an amount of retransmission of packets occurring during transmission of the plurality of packets of the data flow. The network device may predict, based at least in part on the round-trip times of the plurality of packets of the data flow and the amount of retransmission of packets occurring during transmission of the plurality of packets of the data flow, a round-trip time parameter for a service level agreement associated with the application.

  • Patent number: 11641390
    Abstract: When download operations get started in unison in conformity to RSS metafile delivery time-and-date information, the traffic is temporarily concentrated to a server, resulting in the risk of a system failure or else. In addition, it is inevitable to periodically check whether an RSS file on Web server is updated or not; so, users must delete update-unnecessary RSS files from those objects to be monitored. In view of this, the periodical update check timing of download control information is dispersed, thereby scattering download requests to the server. The download control information is provided with the information indicating whether such download control information is put under update management and/or expire time-and-date information in case the update management is to be done, whereby an information processing apparatus performs, based on the information, erase processing of the download control information when the download processing is completed.

  • Patent number: 11632314
    Abstract: An information management method collects log information of one or more home electrical apparatuses corresponding to service providers. Display screen data is generated which indicates a status of the log information. The display screen data includes groups of information which each contain information on an apparatus, a service provider corresponding to the apparatus, and log information output from the apparatus. Provision of the log information of each group is individually selectable. The display screen data is provided via a network to a display terminal that performs access to a server device. Information is received from the display terminal, which indicates that selection on whether or not provision of the log information is performed. Provision of the log information is not performed on the selected group when a determination is made that refusal of provision of the log information on the selected group is performed.

  • Patent number: 11632286
    Abstract: A system is provided herein that can correlate service issues with system telemetry associated with the software session associated with those service issues. Using a statistical approach, the system can evaluate data across numerous software sessions to rank the importance of the reported service issues. To accomplish the ranking, the system can parse the reports of service issues on a periodic basis, can extract telemetry identifiers (IDs) from the logs, can query the telemetry, may compute the relative importance of detected issues (in the context of calls going on for that day), and then can report this impact hack to the service issue database.
