Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for optimized fingerprinting and tokenization in server drift analysis. The present disclosure is configured to detect configuration drift across entire computer servers by utilizing distributed agents that collect and analyze metadata such as file modification dates, sizes, and cryptographic hashes. These agents sanitize sensitive information and conditionally tokenize environment-specific values, such as server names, IP addresses, and timestamps, to ensure accurate comparison across different servers and time periods. By automating the detection process, the system reduces manual intervention and minimizes resource usage, making it highly scalable for large, multi-server environments. Additionally, the system can group servers based on predefined parameters, compare their configurations, and identify discrepancies that may impact performance or security.

Abstract: A battery charger is provided that includes a switching power converter that regulates an output voltage on an output voltage rail. A transistor couples between the output voltage rail and a rechargeable battery for a system. An error amplifier controls the conductance of the transistor based upon a difference between a battery current conducted by the transistor to the battery and a battery current threshold. A pulse width modulator controls a duty cycle of the switching power converter responsive to a selected error signal from a group of error signals. Based upon which error signal is selected for the duty cycle control, the battery charger either increases or decreases the battery current threshold to assist in keeping the output voltage above a minimum system voltage for the system.

Abstract: Methods and techniques are described for supporting location services for a user equipment (UE) in which the UE evaluate available positioning methods based on one or more criteria to determine a prioritized positioning method and provides an indication of the prioritized positioning method to a location server. The UE may additionally provide an indication of the criteria upon which the prioritized positioning method was determined. The UE may send the indication of the prioritized positioning method before the UE performs the positioning measurements and the location server may accept or reject the prioritized positioning method. The UE may alternatively send the indication of the prioritized positioning method and the criteria used in the priority determination after the UE performs the positioning measurements. The location server may use the prioritized positioning method and the criteria used in the priority determination, e.g., in subsequent positioning requests for the UE.
