Abstract: An outbound packet is detected from a client device of a first spoke destined to a client device of a second spoke over SD-WAN through a hub connecting the first and second spokes with IPSec tunneling. The first spoke is on a local enterprise network, the second spoke is on a remote enterprise network and the hub is on wide area network, and each of the first spoke, the second spoke and the hub are each ADVPN2.0 compatible. Responsive to the detection, a health check is performed on the remote spoke. A path is selected between a local NAT device of multiple NAT devices of the first spoke and a remote NAT device of the multiple remote NAT devices of the second spoke, based on link quality data of the response. A NAT hole is punched between a selected local NAT and a selected inbound NAT and an IPSec tunnel is established, independent of the hub.

Abstract: Systems and methods for enhancing group sound during a networked conference are provided. A computer device accesses audio data, detects a first group sound in the audio data, and generates a first group sound identifier that identifies the first group sound. The computer device is one of a plurality of computer devices connected to the networked conference. The computer device transmits the first group sound identifier to a network server and receives a control signal from the network server. The network server receives multiple group sound identifiers from the plurality of computer devices and generates the control signal based on the multiple group sound identifiers. The multiple group sound identifiers include the first group sound identifier and a second group identifier. The control signal includes the second group sound identifier. The computer device reproduces a second group sound based on the second group sound identifier.

Abstract: Example methods and systems provide a workplace assistant application that can detect one or more received messages associated with a remote user and access multiple communication channels connected to a workplace assistant client application. Received message(s), information from the channels, and stored metadata can be submitted to one or more predictive models to provide a context for the message(s). The system can generate, using output from the predictive model(s), a response message based at least in part on the context of the received message. The system can display the response in the workplace assistant client application for acceptance or editing by the user, or transmit the response message.

Abstract: Example methods and systems provide a workplace assistant application that can detect electronic content associated with a remote user and access multiple communication channels connected to a workplace assistant client application. The system can submit the electronic content to one or more predictive models to provide a context for the electronic content.

Abstract: A preparation method, a use, and a quality detection method of a Panax notoginseng-Bletilla striata oral liquid are provided. The preparation method is simple and close to the traditional Chinese medicine preparation technology. An oral liquid solution finally prepared is clear, has a high viscosity, and exhibits better efficacy than the primary drug. In the present disclosure, the prepared Panax notoginseng-Bletilla striata oral liquid is used for the first time in preparation of an antialcoholic and hepatoprotective product. Research results show that the oral liquid can enhance the oxidation resistance of endogenous antioxidase such as glutathione (GSH) to some degree, inhibit an impact of free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation on a liver injury, and exhibit a prominent antialcoholic and hepatoprotective effect for drunk mice. The quality and efficacy of an oral liquid can be monitored scientifically by the quality detection method.

Abstract: Methods and systems relate to a method for providing concurrent sharing of screen elements by multiple users within a communication session. First, a system connects multiple participants of a communication session. The system receives, from a first participant, a request to initiate sharing of one or more screen elements from a user device associated with the first participant. In response to the request, the system captures and displays the one or more screen elements from the user device of the first participant to the communication interfaces of the other participants. The system then receives, from one or more additional participants of the communication session, additional requests to initiate sharing of one or more additional screen elements. In response, the system captures and displays the additional screen elements of the additional participants to the communication interfaces of the other participants, such that multiple screen elements from multiple users are displayed concurrently.
