Abstract: A system and method for using fractional ticketing manages access and attendance at an event hosted by the host platform or entity behind an NFT-based community. An NFT-based fractional ticketing system and method according to the solution may leverage the ability of an NFT-based community platform to airdrop NFT-based assets to members of its community. In an exemplary embodiment, every member of an NFT-based community may be airdropped a voucher or coupon associated with a limited attendance event organized by the community platform. The event may be live in nature (like a tailgate party before a college football game) or virtual in nature (such as an online symposium featuring a famous keynote speaker). The coupons may each be in the form of an NFT and, as such, uniquely identifiable with the NFT-based community and the event it organized and the digital wallet to which it was dropped.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a computer, computer program product and computer implemented method for allowing a user to mute selectively a computer application. In some embodiments, the computer comprises a computer display and a tangible non-transitory computer memory, the computer memory having stored thereon a plurality of computer instruction performing a process of creating a menu of computer applications running on the computer and a process of allowing the user to select from the menu of applications a particular application to mute. The instructions and computer program product, in some embodiments, determine whether an application running on the computer is generating a sound signal; add the application to a list of applications that are generating sound signals; and create a menu from the list for viewing by the user on the computer display, the menu including a name of the application and a mute icon.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media provide for context-sensitive, interactive logs to an administrative user console. A log server can receive at least one logging event from at least one application server based upon activity of at least one entity, identify at least one action associated with the logging event, and create and store a log entry based on the logging event and the associated action. The log server can further format an interactive display page for display at an administrative user console containing the log entry, wherein the interactive display page displays the logging event and the associated action in proximity to the logging event, and wherein the associated action can be selectable by a user at the administrative user console. In response to a selection of the associated action from the administrative user console, the associated action can be initiated.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a selection device for use with a user computer and method for using the device. The selection device performs a process of providing a user with a plurality of menu icons for a plurality of computer applications on the selection device and a process of allowing a user to select a menu icon corresponding to a particular application for viewing on the user computer display. To do this, the device and method may implement the steps of displaying the plurality of menu icons representing applications available to the user on the user computer on the selection device display; enabling the user to scroll through the plurality of menu icons to select the menu icon corresponding to the particular application, and responsive to the user selecting the menu icon, transmitting an identifier for the particular application to the user computer.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing a distributed storage system. A distributed storage system includes a control server coupled to a network, the control server maintaining a policy, a host directory, and a file directory, and a plurality of hosts coupled to the network, each of the plurality of hosts containing a storage device and an agent configured to communicate with the control server, wherein each of the plurality of hosts is configured to contribute a portion of the storage device thereof to collectively form a distributed virtual disk configured to store files, wherein the portion of the storage device on each of the plurality of hosts is configured based on the policy, wherein the host directory contains information about the plurality of the hosts on the distributed storage system, and wherein the file directory contains information about the files stored on the distributed storage system.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing tag suggestions for a data file. One method includes receiving a request to provide tag suggestions for a data file from a client device and identifying contextual information associated with the data file. The contextual information can include an organization chart that has a plurality of entries, and is associated with a user of the client device. The method can further include determining compatibility measures where each of the compatibility measures corresponds to one of the plurality of entries, identifying, based on the compatibility measures, one or more of the plurality of entries in the organization chart as the tag suggestions, and providing, at the tag server, the tag suggestions to the client device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing data in a networked communication system. In particular, certain embodiments of the disclosed subject matter include an apparatus having a processor configured to run a module stored in memory that is configured to receive a first data request requesting the apparatus to provide contents of a data file, to determine that the data file is associated with a remote data file at the server, and based on the determination, to send a second data request to the server to provide the data file to the apparatus, and to receive a response to the second data request from the server, the response including the contents of the data file.

Abstract: The Premier Gutter Cover is a combination of flat metal sheeting and expanded metal so as to give adequate water control, and yet keep leaves and debris from entering the gutter system on a structure. Downward water flow is slowed by the near-flat installation of the cover, further disbursed and slowed by the V-groove rib, and yet further disbursed and slowed by the roll-front of the double-interlock of the flat sheet to expanded metal. Finally, the water is collected into the gutter system through the expanded metal section as it washes leaves and debris over the front edge of the gutter.
