Abstract: A computer-implemented method for providing data communication between two or more host systems is provided. The method comprises designating a first network as a primary network by updating a routing table, monitoring network connections on the first network channel and a second network channel, transmitting data on the first network channel according to the routing table, detecting termination of network connection on the first network channel, determining to transmit data traffic on the first network channel, modifying the routing table, transmitting data traffic on the second network channel according to the routing table, detecting connection on the first network channel, and in response to the detection of data traffic on the first network channel, measuring a network attribute and comparing against a satisfactory threshold, and selecting the first network channel for data communication if the network attribute value satisfies the threshold.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: detect an angle of tilt of a device comprising a touch-sensitive display, the touch-sensitive display configured to provide visual content associated with an application and a virtual keyboard for inputting characters in connection with the application, wherein the virtual keyboard is provided on top of the visual content; and adjust the opacity of the virtual keyboard according to the angle of tilt such that the underlying visual content is visible to a greater or lesser extent.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for implementing a more secure network client device in connection with the dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP). Incoming DHCP Offer packets containing configuration information are temporarily collected. Once all incoming Offers are judged to have been received, offers are scored and a winning offer is selected. The winning offer is used to configure the device's network stack.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for providing redundancy in data network communications. Data traffic on a first network channel used for the data communication between the two or more host systems can be monitored to obtain one or more attributes associated with the data traffic. Based on the data attributes, it may be determined whether one or more anomalies associated with the attributes exist. If so, the anomalies may be used to determine whether they are indicative of an imminent or current network event or condition. In response to a determination that the one or more anomalies are indicative of the event or condition, a second network channel may be selected for the data communication between the two or more host systems.

Abstract: An exercise monitoring system for use with an exercise device including a selectorized weight stack includes a static-stack light transmitter for transmitting a reference light to a static-stack reflector and a static-stack receiver positioned to receive reflected reference light from the static-stack reflector. The exercise monitoring system further includes a weight-determination module that outputs a weight indicator based on an amount of reflected static-stack reference light.
