  • Patent number: 10691207
    Abstract: An example display device includes an input module to receive a touch input that identifies a shape of an electronic device. The display device also includes a display panel. The display panel is to display first data from a computing device in a first region of the display panel. The display panel is also to, in response to a reception of the touch input, display the first data in a second region of the display panel and display second data from the electronic device in a virtual representation of the electronic device in a third region of the display panel. The third region corresponds to the shape of the electronic device. The second data is received via a connection to the computing device. The second region is smaller than the first region.

  • Patent number: 7925737
    Abstract: The present invention comprises a method for automatically configuring network resources. The method includes receiving a request from a client for at least one of a plurality of network resources in a network and automatically configuring the at least one of the plurality of network resources and the network in response to the request. The method also includes automatically associating in a client cell the at least one of the plurality of network resources with the client, wherein the client can access the at least one of the plurality of network resources that have been associated with the client in the client cell. In a particular embodiment, the client cell may be a virtual local area network.

  • Patent number: 7500069
    Abstract: A method for providing secure access to network secure logical storage partitions is disclosed. The method comprises automatically associating at least one of a plurality of secure logical storage partitions in a storage device in a network with at least one of a plurality of uniquely identified servers in a cell in the network in response to a request for storage over the network. The method also comprises automatically associating the cell with at least one client using network isolation of the cell, and using network isolation of the storage device to restrict access to at least one of the plurality of secure logical storage partitions to the one of the plurality of uniquely identified servers in the cell. In a particular embodiment, the method also comprises determining whether storage capacity is available for the at least one client in response to the request, and automatically creating the cell if the cell does not already exist.
