Abstract: One embodiment includes a method for quantum-mechanically archiving data. The method includes receiving, by a quantum computing device (QD), a request to store the data. The data may be associated with a file identifier (ID). A set of bits encodes the data in a classical encoding and the set of bits has a first cardinality. In response to receiving the request to store the data, generating, the QD may generate, based on a superdense coding protocol, a quantum-mechanical (QM) encoding of the data via a set of qubits that has a second cardinality that is less than the first cardinality. The QD may cause a generation of a data structure that encodes an association between the file ID and the set of qubits. The QD may further cause a storage of the data structure.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for seamlessly switching between a classical controller and a quantum controller that both implement an application, based on which controller is better suited for processing a received request for functionality of the application. The classical controller and the quantum controller both implement the same logic for the application, and the classical controller interfaces with a model and a view as part of a model, view and controller (MVC) framework. A Quantum Model View Controller (QMVC) service determines whether the request is to be processed by the classical or quantum controller. In response to determining that the request is to be processed by the quantum controller, the QMVC service diverts the request to the quantum controller and provide a first application program interface (API) gateway between the quantum controller and the model and a second API gateway between the quantum controller and the view.

Abstract: A first computing device of a plurality of computing devices in communication with one another via a communications channel receives, from a requesting computing device, an access request that identifies a subject, a resource identifier that identifies a resource, and an action, the first computing device having a set of access policies, each access policy corresponding to a particular resource of a plurality of resources. The first computing device determines that the resource identifier identifies a resource that is not governed by an access policy in the set of access policies. The first computing device sends, to the communications channel, the access request. The first computing device receives an access request decision from a second computing device of the plurality of computing devices, and the first computing device grants or denies access to the resource by the user based on the access request decision.

Abstract: Container image tooling storage migration is generally described. In some examples, a first pull operation for a first container image may be performed.

In some examples, a second binary representation of the first container image that corresponds to a second container management tool may be received. In various cases, a first container may be executed by the second container management tool using the second binary representation.

Abstract: Computerized systems and methods are provided for automatically generating an application overflow tool that is dynamically updated and arranged to provide improved access to popular or recently used applications. These systems and methods improve existing technologies by generating an overflow panel different from a task bar, such that the overflow panel provides access to most recently used applications that are not on the task bar. As such, ease of access to applications is improved to increase user efficiency. These systems also improve the way computers operate by leveraging existing GUI layouts to reduce computing resource consumption, such as memory, network latency, I/O, and the like, that would otherwise be required improve access to applications.

Abstract: A method for updating content is disclosed that includes receiving, by a first quantum computing device (QD), a classical encoding of an update for content. The classical encoding is stored in a first set of bits with a first cardinality. The content is stored on a first classical computing device (CD) that is enabled to update the content via a patching protocol. In response to receiving the classical encoding, the first QD causes a transmission of the classical encoding. The transmission of the classical encoding includes transmitting a first set of qubits that have a second cardinality that is less than the first cardinality. Quantum states of the first set of qubits store a quantum-mechanical (QM) encoding of the update. The QM encoding of the update was generated based on a superdense coding protocol.

Abstract: Edge nodes in distributed computing environments can be updated according to some aspects described herein. For example, a first node in the distributed computing environment can receive an update request from a management node. The update request can include an update file for updating a second node. In response to receiving the update request, the first node can generate a first partition and a second partition, containing the update file, within the first node. Additionally, the first node can generate a network tunnel between the first node and the second node. The first node can mount a file system for the second node onto the first partition and a copy of the file system onto the second partition of the first node via the network tunnel. The first node also can update the file system in the second partition using the update file to generate an updated file system.

Abstract: A cross-domain data access service enables data access across two or more computing domains, such as, for example, transient access by a public device to data held in a private cloud. In particular, the cross-domain data access service can identify a data subset from within a secure datastore of a first computing domain. The cross-domain data access service can replicate the data subset within a transient datastore that is segregated from the secured datastore. The cross-domain data access service can implement a data access policy so as to enable a client device from a second domain to access the transient datastore.
