Abstract: Applications under test (AUT) may be tested by automated testing systems utilizing machine vision to recognize visual elements presented by the AUT and apply inputs to graphical elements, just as a human would. By utilizing the smallest image patch available, processing demands of the testing system are minimized. However, the image patch used to identify a portion of an AUT must be identifiable to the automated system. By selecting image patches that comprise the smallest size, but can be identified in an AUT by an automated system using machine vision, even as the AUT display is resized, reproportioned, noisy, or otherwise altered from the testing platform that was utilized for training.

Abstract: In a network, communications between nodes in the network can be routed along different communication pathways. The network can include subnetworks provided and administered by third parties, and can include virtual private networks (VPNs), so that the different pathways can be or include VPN tunnels that pass through different subnetworks of the communications network. A central controller can monitor performance of the pathways, including those not in primary use, and dynamically adjust routing of communications traffic between the nodes by directing communication traffic to specific pathways or tunnels. The controller can direct different types of traffic (for example, data, voice) to particular pathways, and can direct traffic to different pathways based on direction of traffic flow (for example, uplink along one pathway and downlink along another pathway).
