Abstract: Example implementations relate to connecting an IoT device to a wireless network using Device Provisioning Protocol (DPP). An authentication server receives a DPP network access authorization request including a connector identifier from an Access Point (AP) in communication with the IoT device. The connector identifier is a hash of the public network access key of the IoT device. If the connector identifier is valid, the authentication server determines a configurable policy from a set of configurable policies that is applicable to the IoT device. The authentication server transmits network permissions defined in the configurable policy to the AR The IoT device is connected to the wireless network by the AP based on the network permissions.

The processor also replicates the issue by running a check through hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) POST request by the microservice to a corresponding application programming interface (API) based on the code; interprets the issue by sending a HTTP secure (HTTPS) GET request by the microservice to the corresponding API based on the code; and automatically remediates the issue based on the required parameters.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and a system where a processor(s) obtains a universe of social media items posted to a social media platform at a given time. The processor(s) determines a likelihood of each item of the universe of social media items becoming viral by linking each item of the universe to a breakout pattern based on predefined dimensions and bucketing each item into a defined grouping by a measure of anticipated virality of the item. The processor(s) applies a susceptible-infected-recovered (SIR) model as a differential equation to the bucketed items to determine an equilibrium and one or more breakout points. The processor(s) determines if a social media item will become viral based on whether the item matches at least one or the one or more breakout points.
