Abstract: Computer-implemented systems, methods, and products for enabling one or more nodes of a first electronic ledger platform to carry out operations with respect to one or more records of the first electronic ledger platform. The operations may include receiving an indication from a smart contract to manage a transaction associated with purchase of a token and processing financial information associated with the purchase of the token to initiate the transaction. The financial information may include a value associated with the token, a source of funds for the purchase, and a destination account for transfer of currency from the source of funds. One or more events or information associated with the transaction are verified to confirm transfer of the token from a selling entity to a purchasing entity.

Abstract: Among other things, we describe implementations of systems and methods for enabling one or more nodes of an electronic ledger platform to carry out operations with respect to one or more records in the electronic ledger platform. The operations include receiving an indication authorized by an entity to transfer a token to another entity, the indication comprising a first quantity of cryptocurrency to be provided by the entity, the token comprising a record of a record of a second quantity of cryptocurrency provided to one or more other entities by the entity and a reference to an executable program. In response to execution of the executable program, one or more records of an electronic ledger in the electronic ledger platform are committed in accordance with a first protocol.

Abstract: Methods, systems and products for enabling one or more nodes of an electronic ledger platform to carry out operations with respect to one or more records in the electronic ledger platform. The operations include receiving an indication to exchange a first token of a first type with a second token of a second type, the indication being authorized by a first entity, the first token associated with ownership information and comprising activity information, the ownership information indicating that the first token is owned by the first entity and the activity information indicating a first activity, and wherein the ownership of the first token is transferable to other entities over the electronic ledger platform based on the ownership information associated with the first token; generating the second token, in response to the receiving of the indication, the second token associated with the ownership information and comprising admission information.

Abstract: A change can be identified in service level for a Web service for an entity from a first service level to a second service level. Active policies associated with the first service can be retrieved. The active policies can be policies of a set of different management products of a service environment. For each management product, policies associated with the first service level can be deactivated. Policies associated with the second service level can be retrieved. For each management product, policies associated with the second service level can be activated. In one embodiment, the activation and deactivation of policies can occur automatically using a service level manager that programmatically handles service level specific adjustments across management products.

Abstract: Disclosed is a support architecture that facilitates use of display device drivers containing a minimum of hardware-specific software code. A driver need support only a relatively few common functions, which act as building blocks for the larger, more complex operations typically requested by graphics engines. In order to mediate between the limited-instruction-set device driver and the various higher-level graphics engines, the invention includes a series of translation modules that simplify engine-originated instructions into simpler graphic components. A video manager supervises routing of instructions to the specific drivers they designate, and serializes access to hardware components so that graphic commands execute atomically (i.e., without interruption). The invention can accommodate multiple device drivers in parallel or serial configurations.

The invention also includes a graphics library containing device-level instruction sets, as well as the on-board capability to execute those commands, for a broad range of graphic operations.
