Abstract: Methods and apparatus for scheduling time sensitive operations among independent processors. In one embodiment, an application processor (AP) determines transmission timing parameters for a baseband processor (BB). Thereafter, the AP can generate and transact generic time-sensitive real-time transport protocol (RTP) data with the BB in time for transmission via a Long Term Evolution (LTE) communication stack. In this manner, the AP's scheduler can coordinate/accommodate digital audio tasks within the context of its other tasks (e.g., to enable intelligent sleep and wake-up operation, load balancing, memory usage, and/or any number of other processor management functions).

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods of data ingress and egress using callback notifications. In an example, a callback notification may be received. The notification may comprise one or more resources, which may be extracted. The extracted resources may be associated with resource identifiers. One or more inference rules from an inference ruleset may be applied to the extracted resources to generate any related inferred relationships. The resource identifiers and inferred relationships may be stored in an isolated collection. The content or structure of the isolated collection may satisfy a notification rule within a notification ruleset. The notification rule may be associated with a recipient. As a result of the determination, the recipient may receive a callback notification. In some examples, the callback notification may comprise a change notification or one or more resource identifiers, associated resources, or relationships from the isolated collection.

Abstract: When an application is booted, a font that will be used with the application is identified and it is determined whether the identified font it locally available to the device. If not, a request to a remote font service is automatically generated, and the identified font is downloaded based upon the detected application boot. The device then finishes booting the application.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to firmware-related event notification. A device may comprise an operating system (OS) configured to operate on a platform. During initialization of the device a firmware module in the platform may load at least one globally unique identifier (GUID) into a firmware configuration table. When the platform notifies the OS, the firmware module may load at least one GUID into a platform notification table and may set a platform notification bit in a platform notification table status field. Upon detecting the notification, an OS management module may establish a source of the notification by querying the platform notification table. The platform notification bit may cause the OS management module to compare GUIDs in the platform notification table and the firmware configuration table. Services may be called based on any matching GUIDs. If no GUIDs match, the services may be called based on firmware variables in the device.

Abstract: Techniques are described for generically providing a solution to developers in supporting web service input calls to systems with dynamic definitions. An example method includes obtaining, from a repository, a list of code value and code description pairs associated with the particular data type. The obtained list is searched for a particular code description matching the string value of the identified input. In response to identifying a particular code description exactly matching the string value of the identified input, the string value of the identified input is associated to the particular code value corresponding to the particular code description. The particular backend application is then executed based on the particular code value associated with the string value of the identified input.

Abstract: A method of hosting a first application (e.g., a virtual application) inside a second application (e.g., a control displayed by a web browser). The method includes executing the first application inside a runtime environment generated at least in part by a runtime engine. The executing first application calls user interface functions that when executed inside the runtime environment generate a first user interface. The runtime engine captures these calls, generates messages comprising information associated with the captured calls, and forwards the messages to a user interface manager that is a separate application from the runtime engine. The user interface manager receives the messages, translates the information associated with the captured calls into instructions for the second application, and sends the instructions to the second application. The control receives the instructions sent by the user interface manager, and displays a second user interface for the first application based on the instructions.

Abstract: A system for managing data content and data content relationships through resource efficient process structures for cloud and network environments includes a Clode core. The Clode core creates an object/display/process based on a defined order of processes determined by the object's tags and/or relationships to a function map and/or other objects in the system. This is used in Clode tag modules such as ‘clode:autopublish’ to create a data publication on the server, by ‘clode:autosubscribe’ to make client's automatically subscribe to data related to the tagged object, and by ‘clode:surface’ to manage an object on a display; just to name a few use cases. Tags can then be used to manage third party environments such as a docker container that would be classified as having the tag ‘on’, but when removed could cause the container to shut off. Tag management functions could also change the classifications as to say in the previous example to cause a tag to be added called ‘off’.
