Abstract: Core network slices that belong to a given operator community are efficiently tracked at the network control/user plane functions level, with rich data analytics in real-time based on their geographic instantiations. In one aspect, an enhanced vendor agnostic orchestration mechanism is utilized to connect a unified management layer with an integrated slice-components data analytics engine (SDAE), a slice performance engine (SPE), and a network slice selection function (NSSF) in a closed-loop feedback system with the serving network functions of one or more core network slices. The tight-knit orchestration mechanism provides economies of scale to mobile carriers in optimal deployment and utilization of their critical core network resources while serving their customers with superior quality.

The system includes sensors configured to generate output signals conveying information related to the vehicles. The system may detect vehicle events based on the information conveyed by the output signals. The system includes a remote computing server configured to present a user interface to a user. Through the user interface, the user may query information from one or more vehicles in the fleet. The distributed query is transmitted to individual vehicles, and results are locally processed in accordance with response constraints and subsequently transmitted back to the remote computing server for presentation to the user.

Abstract: A management controller may monitor an information handling system to detect an event associated with a change to a configuration setting by subscribing with an internal event bus to receive the event associated with the change in the configuration setting, and evaluate whether there is a discrepancy between a current configuration setting of the information handling system and a baseline configuration setting. If a configuration drift exists based on the discrepancy, then the configuration drift may be sent to a management console.

Abstract: A media device and methods that identify playback states reachable from a current content playback state and identify a reachable state that is likely to occur, are disclosed. A memory associated with the media device may receive frames that enable a smooth transition between the playback state and the reachable state. The media device may receive frames that correspond to points in the content that are separated by an amount of time that is proportional to the playback rate of the likely state.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments are directed at systems, methods, and architecture for operating a control plane of a microservice architecture application. The control plane may links a plurality of APIs for the microservice architecture application. The communication between the APIs and the control plane enables the control plane to assess the settings of the APIs compared to stored versions of the settings. The settings and stored versions may each be hashed with a hashing algorithm. The control plane may instruct APIS to update their settings responsive to determining that the settings do not match the stored versions.

Abstract: A system includes at least one non-transitory storage medium storing a set of instructions and at least one processor in communication with the at least one non-transitory storage medium. When executing the set of instructions, the at least one processor may be directed to cause the system to obtain a service request signal sent from a user terminal via wireless communication, wherein the service request signal encodes identifier data, a first departure location, and a first departure time; retrieve one or more historical records related to the identifier data, wherein a historical record includes a historical departure location, historical departure time and a historical destination location; determine, using a pre-stored destination matching algorithm, a selection probability of the one or more historical destination location; determine, based on the selection probability, a suggested destination location, which is the same as the one or more historical destination locations.

Abstract: One aspect of the instant application facilitates detection of configuration anomaly. During operation, a system can convert a set of rules associated with configuration syntax information for a feature in a respective feature document to at least a structured regular expression. Then the system generates a set of configuration templates with a respective configuration template including the structured regular expression corresponding to the feature document. The system can select, based on a target configuration associated with the network device, a subset of the configuration templates and can extract, based on a match between the selected configuration templates and the target configuration, a set of features. The system can determine one or more rules associated with the extracted features. Based on the one or more rules the system can determine an anomaly in the target configuration and generate at least one recommended configuration to alleviate the anomaly.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a detection method for a multi-access edge computing architecture. The multi-access edge computing architecture uses the technology of bump-in-the-wire (BITW) to be deployed between the user device and the core network. The multi-access edge computing architecture includes a baseboard management controller, an edge computing service module, a central processing unit module, and a switching module. When any function in the multi-access edge computing architecture fails, the detection method of the present invention is used to actively detect and directly connect the base station to the core network. When the function is restored, the detection method of the present invention can actively restore the original path of the base station and the core network connected to the multi-access edge computing architecture to achieve seamless debugging and other purposes.

Abstract: Disclosed is a server capable of improving convenience for a user at the time of service registration. The server includes a service providing unit which provides a service to an unregistered user who is not registered in the service when the unregistered user accesses the service, and a storage device which stores a service history provided to the unregistered user by the service providing unit. When the unregistered user is registered in the service, the service providing unit allows the unregistered user to use the service while taking over a service history used when the unregistered user is not registered in the service.

Abstract: A system can receive, over one or more networks, location data from a computing device of a requesting user, where the location data indicates a current position of the requesting user. The system can repeatedly determine, based at least in part on location data corresponding to a directional heading of a proximate transport provider in relation to the current position of the requesting user, an optimal rendezvous location for the requesting user prior to the requesting user transmitting a service request to the network computer system. The system may then transmit, over the one or more networks, data corresponding to the optimal rendezvous location to the computing device of the requesting user.

Abstract: A data stream accessor seeks to simulate an uninterrupted bitstream for a decoder during network interruptions. The accessor performs a set of operations including receiving an available amount of image data and storing a current execution context of the call site, passing execution flow to the decoder, and performing a subset of operations. The subset includes receiving an indication of a desired amount of image data from the decoder. If a total amount of image data at the accessor is greater than or equal to the desired amount, the desired amount is transmitted to the decoder for decoding. Otherwise, and unless an error issues, a current execution context of the decoder is stored, execution flow is passed from the decoder to the call site, and the restorable execution context is loaded as the current execution context of the call site. The subset is repeated unless the image is completely decoded.
