Abstract: Remote automated assistant component(s) generate client device notification(s) based on a received IoT state change notification that indicates a change in at least one state associated with at least one IoT device. The generated client device notification(s) can each indicate the change in state associated with the at least one IoT device, and can optionally indicate the at least one IoT device. Further, the remote automated assistant component(s) can identify candidate assistant client devices that are associated with the at least one IoT device, and determine whether each of the one or more of the candidate assistant client device(s) should render a corresponding client device notification.

Abstract: A spring brake actuator has a service brake with a service brake housing and a service brake working chamber located in the service brake housing. The service brake working chamber is confined by a diaphragm. A service brake piston movable along an actuator-longitudinal axis and abuts the diaphragm, which applies a brake force onto the service brake piston. A spring between the service brake piston and the service brake housing pushes the service brake piston against the direction of the brake force. A modulator valve unit communicates with the service brake working chamber and is configured to regulate the inlet and outlet of fluid into and out of the service brake working chamber. The modulator valve unit is integrated into the spring brake actuator and includes a controllable inlet valve communicating with the service brake working chamber and a controllable outlet valve communicating with the service brake working chamber.

Abstract: The disclosed system identifies international calling performance issues of a wireless telecommunication network. The system receives network traffic data for international calls including information about call attempts to a country. The system categorizes the country into a major category and a minor category based on the call attempts information.

Abstract: The present invention is in the field of hair treatment compositions; in particular relates to hair treatment compositions for hair volume reduction. Despite the prior art, there still exists the opportunity to increase the conditioning benefits delivered through hair treatment compositions. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a hair treatment composition that retains shape and reduces frizz even after exposure to humidity and washing the hair. It has been found that reduced hair frizz and hair shape retention even after exposure to moisture can be obtained by using N-formyl amino acids.

Abstract: A computing system may automatically infer one or more events that occur during an application session involving activity on a network, such as the Internet. Such an application session may be interactions with, for example, social networking websites, banking websites, news websites, and so on. Events are any of a number of activities or transactions that may occur during the application session. The computing system may automatically infer an event by gathering network transaction data for network transactions performed by one or more client devices of a wireless communication network. The computing system may generate a network activity signature based, at least in part, on the network transaction data and apply pattern recognition and/or machine learning to the network activity signature to infer events associated with the network activity signature.

Abstract: In one embodiment, dynamic user private networks are virtually segmented within a shared virtual network. A network control system maintains the dynamic logical segmentation of the shared virtual network. User entities (e.g., user devices and/or services) are communicatively coupled to respective personal virtual networks via endpoints of access devices. Each of these endpoints is associated with a corresponding user private network. Responsive in real-time to automated processing of a received electronic particular user request, the network control system automatically modifies the dynamic logical segmentation of the shared virtual network to move a particular user entity on the shared virtual network to newly being on the first dynamic user private network without being disconnected from the shared virtual network. One embodiment uses different user private network identifiers (UPN-IDs) associated with endpoints and received packets to identify their respective user private network.

Abstract: A network performance degradation detection system is provided. The system receives Key Performance Indicator (KPI) values for devices of different device types running different software versions. The system determines baseline values of a first device type by averaging the KPI values of the different software versions running on devices of the first device type. The system compares KPI values for a first software version running on devices of the first device type with the determined baseline values to produce a set of comparison results. The system applies the set of comparison results to a classification model to determine whether the first software version running on devices of the first device type causes network performance degradation.
