Abstract: Technologies for remote firmware updates include a telematics cloud server in communication with multiple telematics devices. The server stores a compressed firmware package and a firmware manifest and firmware components from the firmware package. A telematics device sends a status update to the server and receives an acknowledgment that identifies an available firmware release. The telematics device downloads the firmware manifest, and for each firmware component, determines whether to update the firmware component. The firmware component may be a base install or a differential install. The server may flag the firmware component for a forced install. The telematics device may evaluate a device policy or an advanced rule to determine whether to update the firmware. The telematics device may evaluate a machine learning risk model to determine whether to update the firmware. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In a data processing method, an electronic device detects that a first file and a second file are duplicate files, with a first index node of the first file pointing to file data of the first file, and a second index node of the second file pointing to file data of the second file. The electronic device generates a target index node and configures the target index node to point to the file data of the first file. The electronic device associates the first index node with the target index node, and separately associates the second index node with the target index node. The electronic device then deletes the file data of the second file.

Abstract: This application discloses a data compression method and apparatus. The method includes: obtaining m data blocks in a data area of a readable and writable file system; compressing the m data blocks by using a preset compression algorithm, to sequentially obtain n compressed data blocks, where first capacities of the compressed data blocks are the same, and the first capacity represents a quantity of bytes of compressed data that can be included in the compressed data block; and establishing a first index of each of j data blocks corresponding to an ith compressed data block in the n compressed data blocks, and recording a mapping relationship between first indexes and the j data blocks. The first index is used to identify a storage location, in a storage medium, of each data block included in the j data blocks, and attribute information included in each of the j data blocks.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for sharing user markings between digital documents and corresponding physically printed documents. The sharing is facilitated using an Augmented Reality (AR) device, such as a smartphone or a tablet. The device streams images of a page of a book on a display. The device accesses a corresponding digital document that is a digital version of content printed on the book. In an example, the digital document has a digital user marking, e.g., a comment associated with a paragraph of the digital document, wherein a corresponding paragraph of the physical book lacks any such comment. When the device streams the images of the page of the book on the display, the device appends the digital comment on the paragraph of the page of the book within the image stream. Thus, the user can view the digital comment in the AR environment, while reading the physical book.

Abstract: A terminal device and a positioning information processing method applied to a terminal device, where the terminal device includes a processor and a positioning chip. The processor receives a positioning request from a first application program or receives current positioning data of the terminal device from the positioning chip. The first application program is included in the terminal device. The processor obtains a running state of the first application program. The processor avoids sending the positioning request to the positioning chip or avoids sending the current positioning data to the first application program when the first application program is in a positioning service restricted state and the first application program is currently running in the background.

In some implementations, data indicating a user request to a digital assistant is received. An action corresponding to the user request is determined. It is determined that the action is classified as an action to be performed asynchronously to the user request. A confirmation message is sent, for output, and the action is performed asynchronously to the user request.

A specific solution is as follows: A first terminal establishes a first wireless connection to a second terminal. When the first terminal needs to establish a second wireless connection to the second terminal, the first terminal negotiates, with the second terminal by using the first wireless connection, information required for establishing the second wireless connection. Subsequently, the first terminal can establish the second wireless connection to the second terminal based on the negotiated information required for establishing the second wireless connection.
