Publication number: 20190243743Abstract: The subject technology extracts features from each log line of a log file. The subject technology determines, based on the features, a sequence of log lines. The subject technology determines probabilities of log lines occurring within a window of time from a respective log line from the sequence of log lines, and determines probabilities of periods of time within the window of time that a next log line will occur after the respective log line. The subject technology segments log lines from the log file into sequences of log lines based on the probabilities of the set of log lines occurring within the window of time and the probabilities of periods of time that the next log line occurs after the respective log line. The subject technology determines a predicted subsequent log line, and detects an anomaly when an actual subsequent log line differs from the predicted subsequent log line.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2018Publication date: August 8, 2019Inventors: Sumit Saxena, Kushal M.

Patent number: 10187315Abstract: Apparatus and methods for optimizing communications at a communication processor that exchanges communications across a communication link on behalf of an application processor or other local endstation of the communications, wherein the communication link is intermittently inoperative. The application processor is a source or destination of communication packets that traverse the link, while the communication processor transmits and receives the packets for the application processor. Packets are queued at the communication processor for transmit while the link is temporarily inoperative. A filter operates to select obsolete packets for discard. Obsolete packets may include packets for which a subsequent FIN packet (or other termination notice) is received, and may also include packets that have associated deadlines that expire or that will expire before they can be delivered. Obsolete packets may further include packets that have been retransmitted while the link is inoperative.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2012Date of Patent: January 22, 2019Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Li Li, Ben-Heng Juang, Arun G.

Patent number: 9699642Abstract: Embodiments are described for identifying and accessing an electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) and associated content of the eSIM in a multiple eSIM configuration. An embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) can include multiple eSIMs, where each eSIM can include its own file structures and applications. Some embodiments include a processor of a mobile device transmitting a special command to the eUICC, including an identification that uniquely identifies an eSIM in the eUICC. After selecting the eSIM, the processor can access file structures and applications of the selected eSIM. The processor can then use existing commands to access content in the selected eSIM. The special command can direct the eUICC to activate or deactivate content associated with the selected eSIM. Other embodiments include an eUICC platform operating system interacting with eSIMs associated with logical channels to facilitate identification and access to file structures and applications of the eSIMs.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2016Date of Patent: July 4, 2017Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Li Li, Ben-Heng Juang, Arun G.

Patent number: 9626114Abstract: The invention provides a technique for managing write operations issued to a non-volatile memory included in a wireless device. A monitor software application executes on the wireless device and is configured to determine that a number of write operations issued to the non-volatile memory is greater than or equal to a write operation threshold associated with the non-volatile memory. In response, at least one application is isolated as the application responsible for issuing excessive write operations. The isolation can be carried out locally on the wireless device, or the isolation can be carried out remotely at a server by sending information about the write operations to the server. The monitor then limits additional write operations from being issued to the non-volatile memory so as to protect the non-volatile memory from becoming corrupted or inoperable.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2015Date of Patent: April 18, 2017Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Li Li, Ben-Heng Juang, Arun G.
