Abstract: A Data Storage Device (DSD) or a server is set to an unlocked state to allow access to a memory of the DSD or to a DSD of the server. Communication is established with an access station using a wireless communication interface, and an access code is received from the access station via the wireless communication interface. If the received access code is determined to be valid, the DSD or server is set to the unlocked state. According to another aspect, communication is established with a DSD or a server using a wireless communication interface, and an access code is generated and sent to the DSD or the server for setting the DSD or the server to the unlocked state.

Abstract: A method, system, and/or computer program product for identifying and replacing a deficient component in a product. One or more processors deconstruct a text product review into multiple n-grams, where each of the multiple n-grams is a review of a particular component from components of a product. The processor(s) generate a component numeric rating value (CNRV) for each of the multiple n-grams, where the CNRV is based on an analysis of each of the multiple n-grams. The processor(s) identify a deficient component of the product. The processor(s) identify a cause of the deficiency in the deficient component and identify a replacement component that does not cause the deficiency in the deficient component. The processor(s) direct a manufacturing device that manufactures the product to replace the deficient component with the replacement component.

Abstract: A system provides a way for a person to control access to digital assets, including financial accounts, through a common gateway that can interact on the person's behalf with service providers that manage the digital assets. Brokers may act as intermediaries between the gateway and the service providers, providing a common interface to the gateway and a specific interface to a service provider. Trigger events can cause the gateway to interact with the service providers, causing the service providers to take a desired action. The trigger events may include notification sent by the person, timed events, and other detected events.

Abstract: Features are disclosed for generating predictive personal natural language processing models based on user-specific profile information. The predictive personal models can provide broader coverage of the various terms, named entities, and/or intents of an utterance by the user than a personal model, while providing better accuracy than a general model. Profile information may be obtained from various data sources. Predictions regarding the content or subject of future user utterances may be made from the profile information. Predictive personal models may be generated based on the predictions. Future user utterances may be processed using the predictive personal models.

Abstract: A first mobile communication device is configured to transmit video and audio content to a second mobile communication device utilizing a server. The first mobile communication device, via the server, transmits a share request or “knock” with the second mobile communication device. The second device must either accept the request or reject the request. If the second mobile communication device accepts the knock, it transmits a share accept message to the server. The first mobile communication device then transmits the video and audio content to the second mobile communication device via the server.

Abstract: Alkali aluminosilicate glasses that exhibit fast ion exchange performance and having low softening points that enable the glasses to be formed into non-planar, three-dimensional shapes. The glasses contain less than about 1 mol % of boron oxide and, in some embodiments, are substantially free of B2O3. Furthermore, these glasses have excess amounts of alkali oxides relative to both Al2O3 and P2O5, in order to improve melting behavior and ion exchange performance while still achieving sufficiently low softening points to allow for formability.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for hierarchichal sharding of flows from sensors to collectors. A first collector can receive a first portion of a network flow from a first capturing agent and determine that a second portion of the network flow was not received from the first capturing agent. The first collector can then send the first portion of the network flow to a second collector. A third collector can receive the second portion of the network flow from a second capturing agent and determine that the third collector did not receive the first portion of the network flow. The third collector can then send the second portion of the network flow to the second collector. The second collector can then aggregate the first portion and second portion of the network flow to yield the entire portion of the network flow.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable storage devices each provide, for a given flow entry in a flow table associated with a packet flow, a first atomic counter associated with a first color and a second atomic counter associated with a second color. The system, for a first coloring interval, marks traffic in the packet flow from a tenant to a fabric as the first color and increments the first atomic counter. At a conclusion of the first coloring interval and for a second coloring interval, the system marks the traffic in the packet flow from the tenant to the fabric as the second color and increments the second atomic counter. The system compares first packet counts associated with the first color at an ingress point with second packet counts associated with the first color at an egress point to the fabric.

Abstract: In a method for reducing interference in a first wireless communication network and a second wireless communication network, a first access point (AP) device of the first wireless communication network coordinates with a second AP device of the second wireless communication network with respect to utilizing transmit beamforming at the first AP device and transmit beamforming at the second AP device for the purpose of reducing interference in the first wireless communication network and the second wireless communication network. Based on coordinating with the second AP device, the first AP device uses a beamforming matrix to transmit, via a multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) communication channel, to one or more first stations in the first wireless communication network for mitigating interference between the first wireless communication network and the second wireless communication network.
