Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and apparatus for managing a failure of a device. The method comprises detecting whether a failure occurs in a device, and generating a failure report for the failure in response to the failure occurring in the device. The method further comprises querying a device object repository with the failure report, and the object device repository stores historical failure information associated with the device and a fix solution corresponding to the historical failure information. The method further comprises obtaining the fix solution from the device object repository based on a comparison between the failure report and the historical failure information. Embodiments of the present disclosure can manage the failure of the device more effectively.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, system and computer program product for providing a secure access to data in mobile devices by acquiring the data from one of a plurality of remote storage devices in response to receiving an access request for the data from one or more applications; storing the data in a secure memory space in the mobile device; providing the one or more applications with an access to the data in the secure memory space when a predetermined condition is satisfied, wherein the predetermined condition at least comprises the one or more applications having an access permission to the secure memory space.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, a computer program product and apparatus for failure recovery in a storage device, wherein a storage device comprises at least one server and a storage unit with a plurality of components running on the at least one server, and further comprises backing up, in the storage unit, one or more components in a plurality of components running on the at least one server; monitoring occurrence of a failure on the at least one server and locating one or more components causing the failure; obtaining one or more components that are backed up in the storage unit and correspond to the one or more components causing the failure; and recovering from the failure using the obtained one or more components.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a method of positioning and a corresponding portable device. In one embodiment, a method of positioning is provided. The method comprises: capturing, by image capturing equipment of a portable device, a visually encoded to in an environment; decoding the visually encoded tag to obtain an identification for generating the visually encoded tag; and determining a location of the portable device in the environment by querying a predefined library using the identification, the library recording correspondences between a set of identifications for generating visually encoded tags and a set of locations in the environment.
