Abstract: Existing systems enable secure storage of encryption keys in the form of digital wallets, however, since the keys are preconfigured, they can be prone to malicious attacks. The embodiments herein provide a method and system for randomizing distribution of cryptographic keys across multiple secure key storage devices. The system generates random storage identities (RSIDs) for secure key storage devices by selecting a random storage device from a device portfolio, assigns the RSIDs randomly to create crypto addresses based on random access and partition the devices by deriving crypto addresses. Further, the system generates a user hash function and maps the user hash function to find an associated RSID hash function. The system identifies a device ID, a partition ID and a business date from a device mapper associated with the RSIDs to regenerate new RSIDs and recommends the regenerated new RSIDs randomly to each of the plurality of devices.

Abstract: Systems and methods for skipping a presentation of a portion of segments to catch up to live based on a priority level value is disclosed. For example, a streaming application generates a content item for live streaming where the content item comprises a plurality of segments. In response to determining that playing of the content item lags behind the live streaming of the content item, the streaming application identifies a duration of lag and determines a priority threshold based on the lag. Based on a manifest which includes priority level information, the streaming application determines whether a respective segment needs to be cached. For example, if a priority level for a segment that is within the duration of the lag has a priority level that is higher the priority threshold, then the segment is stored in a cache from a respective network address and is played from the cache.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to high-performance computing, and more particularly to techniques for kernel-assisted device polling of user-space devices. A common kernel-based polling mechanism is provided for concurrently handling both kernel-based polling for kernel-space devices such as network interfaces (e.g., network NICs) and kernel-based polling for user-space devices such as remote direct memory access devices (e.g., RDMA NICs). Embodiments perform kernel-based polling on a first device that has a corresponding device driver in an operating system kernel. Using the same polling mechanism, the kernel-based polling is performed on a second device, the second device being a user-space device wherein the kernel-based polling on the second device is configured by creating a second device file descriptor that is not associated with a corresponding device driver in the operating system kernel.

Method and system disclosed converts the pixel vector into image and provides a DCNN architecture that is built for processing 2D visual representation of the pixel vectors to learn spectral and classify the pixels. Thus, DCNN learn edges, arcs, arcs segments and the other shape features of the spectrum. Thus, the method disclosed enables converting a spectral signature to a shape, and then this shape is decomposed using hierarchical features learned at different convolution layers of the disclosed DCNN at different levels.

Abstract: A technique replicates an index of an operations log (oplog) from a primary node to a secondary node of a cluster in the event of failure. The oplog functions as a staging area to coalesce random write operations directed to a virtual disk (vdisk) stored on a backend storage tier. The oplog temporarily caches write data as well as metadata describing the write data. The metadata includes descriptors to the write data corresponding to offset ranges of the vdisk and are used to identify ranges of write data for the vdisk that are cached in the oplog. To facilitate fast lookup operations of whether write data is cached in the oplog, an oplog index provides a state of the latest data for offset ranges of the vdisk that enables fast failover of metadata used to construct the oplog index in memory without downtime or significant metadata replay.
