Abstract: The present disclosure is related to automatic content generation. In one example, user interactions, associated with a target business process software application, are captured and stored. Further in this example, one or more scenarios of using the target business process software application are determined from the captured and stored user interactions. A set of rules are then formed and stored in a rules repository to generate the content. The content is then automatically generated using the captured and stored user interactions, the determined one or more scenarios of using the target business process software application and/or the stored set of rules.

Abstract: A virtual computer system management service receives input from a user specifying operations to be performed by a web-based service. The input includes an indication of a set of resources to be used to perform the operations and control information to control the set of resources to perform the operations. The virtual computer system management service configures the resources to perform the operations according to the control information. This causes the set of resources to perform the operations and provide a result. The virtual computer system management service provides this result to the user.

Abstract: In various implementations, a signage manager may manage digital sign content. The signage manager may transmit playlists and/or media to signage devices to be presented on a display and/or on a set of displays. The signage manger may allow independent customization of playlists. The media items associated with the playlists and presented on display(s) may be stored on a memory of the signal device and/or streamed media from another source.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a system, method, or computer program product for generating and using a block chain distributed network for tracking and validating protocols and other operations associated with the transition of one or more resources from being arranged in a consolidated, privately-held structure to being arrange and/or distributed in a publicly available structure. In example implementations, the block chain database is used and updated to reflect the status degree of completion of protocols associated with the identification, characterization, and dissemination of resource characteristics and resource shares, including the fractional distribution of resource portions to effectuate the efficient transition of a resource.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for assigning an action to execute on content based upon, at least in part, an occurrence of a statistical event. Statistics associated with a corresponding portion of the content published on one or more websites is received. The occurrence of the statistical event with respect to the corresponding portion of the content is determined based upon, at least in part, receiving the statistics. The action on the content is executed based upon, at least in part, determining the occurrence of the statistical event with respect to the corresponding portion of the content.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a quality of service (QoS) monitoring framework for dynamically binding one or more customer applications to one or more microservices in a dynamic service environment, collecting compliance data and contextual data from the dynamic service environment and one or more hosting environments, and modifying a monitoring infrastructure for the one or more customer applications based on the compliance data and the contextual data.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for crisis communications. One of the methods includes establishing a secure connection between a crisis communications management system and a device.

Abstract: A virtual desktop can be remoted to a client device by transmitting a video stream using a video coding format, such as H.264, where higher resolution video can be streamed than natively supported by the encoder or decoder. The encoder framebuffer is divided into a plurality of equal size child buffers, each child buffer is assigned an identifier for identifying the child buffer. Padding pixels can be added to the child buffers to make the child buffer size acceptable for the video coding format. The child buffers are encoded using the video coding format and the encoded frames are transmitted to a client. On the decoder side, the encoded child frames are decoded, padding pixels are removed, and the data is used to update corresponding child buffers in a framebuffer on the client display system.

Abstract: A computing system for load processing obtains a current time and a reported load amount from an access machine at the current time and determines a delayed cognitive load amount allocated to the access machine at a first time period by subtracting a first time difference from the current time. Next the computing system determines an actual load amount of the access machine at the current time by adding the reported load amount and the delayed cognitive load amount and determines whether the access machine is running at an overload condition by comparing the actual load amount of the access machine at the current time and a maximum load amount threshold for the access machine. The present application can accurately determine the load amount that the access machine has received and schedule user terminals received by the access machine to prevent overloaded operation of the access machine.

Abstract: A configurable data collection, processing and delivery system implements a unified data-flow execution pipeline in collection, processing and delivery of data to a target within or external to a computing device. Multiple data collection sets are defined from data available to the system and organized into at least one tensor based telemetry data stream associated with a service flow. At least one dynamically modifiable execution unit is provided to process the telemetry stream and the service flow. The telemetry stream is also processed into one or more target destination delivery streams that adheres to protocol, network characteristics, and transmission process required by the set of targets.

Abstract: Systems and methods for building service templates that allow for an agentless, data-driven and stateful automation of a provisioning of services to mobile network customers. Data associated with a request to create a target schema object class for a device and protocol are received. Based on the device and protocol information, a set of data fields associated with CRUD semantics is retrieved from either a database or from user provided data. A decorated target object class is created based on the requested target schema object class. A subrecipe is created including the decorated target object class, and one or more other decorated target object classes. A recipe is processed for transmission to an execution engine to form a service instance, the service instance being customizable by an operator for a specific network device such that the service instance data fields that are not pre-filled can be customized by the operator.

Abstract: A content management system streams variable length segments of content items to client devices. The content management system stores a content item and makes the item available for access by one or more client devices. When a client device requests the content item from the content management system, the content management system sends the content item to the device by streaming the content item in segments. Specifically, the content management system partitions the content item into a sequence of variable length segments. An initial portion of the sequence includes rapid start segments that are configured as being the smallest segments in length from the sequence. A subsequent portion of the sequence includes the remaining segments having longer length(s). The content management system streams the segments to the client device in sequential order and in a streaming format.
