Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for sharing or recreating a state from a mobile device. For example, a mobile application state identifier can include a protocol identifier, a target task component associated with a mobile application executing when the application state identifier is generated and a sub-task component related to a user-interface active in the mobile application when the application state identifier is generated. The application state identifier can also include a user input component reflecting actions taken by a user during execution of the mobile application. A method can include generating, on a first mobile device, an application state identifier and transmitting the application state identifier to a second mobile device, wherein the second mobile device opens a mobile application associated with the target task to a user-interface corresponding to the sub-task component in response to receiving the application state identifier.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for switch virtualization by a switch proxy controller. In an aspect, a method includes receiving, by a switch proxy controller, a first request from a first switch fabric, where the first request indicates a first identifier that identifies the first request from other requests from the first switch fabric, generating a second request that indicates a second identifier that identifies the second request from other requests sent from the switch proxy controller to a switch, providing the second request to the switch, receiving, by the switch proxy controller, a first reply that indicates the second identifier indicated in the second request, generating, based on the second identifier indicated in the first reply, a second reply that indicates the first identifier, and selecting the first switch fabric to receive the second reply based on the second identifier.

Abstract: An autonomous network and a corresponding routing method include determining routing paths by a controller, and providing the determined routing paths to a data packet processor located remotely from the controller. The data packet processor routes outgoing data packets, based on information from the controller, through a plurality of switches remotely from the data packet processor. Each switch includes a plurality of network interfaces. For an outgoing data packet, the data packet processor determines a network interface over which to transmit the data packet, and adds an indication of the determined network interface in a header of the data packet. The data packet processor forwards the modified data packet to the switch including the determined network interface. The switch identifies the network interface based on the indication, and transmits the outgoing data packet over the identified network interface.
