Abstract: A computing system obtains a document that is to be shared between a first user and a second user. A first computing device of the first user displays a first local copy of the document. A second computing device of the second user displays a second local copy of the document. While a first view of the document corresponding to a state of the first local copy is being presented, the computing system receives an indication that the second user is to assume control of presentation of the document from the first user. The computing system receives state data from the second computing device that is indicative of a second view of the document corresponding to the second local copy. Based upon the state data, the computing system causes a state of the first local copy of the content to be updated to present the second view.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an earthbound transceiver in a low earth orbit (LEO) satellite network establishes a connection with a first LEO satellite from a first set of LEO satellites. The first set of LEO satellites are distributed across a first plurality of orbits including first neighboring LEO satellites of the first LEO satellite, and the first neighboring LEO satellites have a fixed or semi-fixed position relative to the first LEO satellite. The earthbound transceiver determines first signal strength values associated with the first set of LEO satellites and second signal strength values associated with a second set of LEO satellites. The earthbound transceiver then periodically compares the first signal strength values to the second signal strength values. At an optimal handoff time, the earthbound transceiver initiates the handoff operation from the first LEO satellite to a second LEO satellite from the second set of LEO satellites.

Abstract: Techniques for improving microphone noise suppression are provided. As wind noise may disproportionately impact a subset of microphones, a method for processing audio data using two adaptive reference algorithm (ARA) paths in parallel is provided. For example, first ARA processing performs noise cancellation using all microphones, while second ARA processing performs noise cancellation using only a portion of the microphones. As the first ARA processing and the second ARA processing are performed in parallel, beam merging can be performed using beams from the first ARA, the second ARA, and/or a combination of each. In addition, beam merging can be performed using beam sections instead of individual beams to further improve performance and reduce attenuation to speech.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for saving power in a Universal Serial Bus (USB) repeater/re-timer between a USB host and a peripheral device by intercepting packets received from the host to predict the direction of data traffic to selectively turn off/on circuitry of a peripheral port used to receive packets from the peripheral device. If a host port determines that the host is sending a start-of-frame (SOF) packet, the direction of data flow is from the host to the peripheral device, and the repeater may turn off the peripheral port such as squelch circuitry. If the host port determines that the host is sending a non-SOF packet, such as an address token that precedes a host-to-peripheral-device data transfer or a peripheral-device-to-host data transfer, the direction of data flow is anticipated to be from the peripheral device to the host, and the repeater may re-enable the deactivated circuitry of the peripheral port.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a system and method for deploying and managing services in tenant clusters using a management cluster. The management cluster includes an integration service in communication with a service controller. The integration service communicates with a service endpoint using privileged credentials for receiving tenant cluster-specific configuration information. The integration service generates access credentials for the new tenant cluster to communicate with the service provider. The integration service provides tenant cluster-specific configuration information and access credentials to the service controller for the deployment of the service in the new tenant cluster. The service controller deploys the service at the new tenant cluster and manages the lifecycle of the service at the new tenant cluster.

Abstract: Techniques for using Network Address Translation (NAT), Mobile Internet Protocol (MIP), and/or other techniques in conjunction with Domain Name System (DNS) to anonymize server-side addresses in data communications. Rather than having DNS provide a client device with an IP address of an endpoint device, such as a server, the DNS instead returns a virtual IP (VIP) address that is mapped to the client device and the endpoint device. In this way, IP addresses of servers are obfuscated by a virtual network of VIP addresses. The client device may then communicate data packets to the server using the VIP address as the destination address, and a virtual network service that works in conjunction with DNS can convert the VIP address to the actual IP address of the server using NAT and forward the data packet onto the server.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques to regenerate SYNC bits of a High-Speed data packet lost by the transmission envelope detector of a repeater/hub that interconnects electronic devices compliant with Universal Serial Bus (USB) Specification Revision 2.0 or higher. A physical layer logic (PHY) of a first port of the repeater/hub receives a High-Speed data packet to store a recovered bit stream into an elastic buffer. The recovered bit stream may lose some SYNC bits at the beginning of the SYNC pattern. The repeater/hub reads the recovered bit stream from the elastic buffer for transmission through the PHY of a second port. If the end of the SYNC is read before a programmable number of SYNC bits have been transmitted, the repeater/hub generates additional SYNC bits for transmission until the programmable number of SYNC bits are transmitted. The repeater/hub then resumes transmitting the rest of the High-Speed data packet starting from the payload.
