Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to various methods to discover, configure, and leverage relationships in Internet of Things (IoT) networks. More particularly, the methods disclosed herein may support automated processes to create configurable sub-divisions and access controls in an IoT network based on usage associated with objects that are registered in the IoT network and interactions among the registered objects. Furthermore, in one embodiment, relationships between IoT devices that belong to different users may be implicitly discovered and/or ranked based on meetings (e.g., interactions) between the IoT devices, and relationships between the different users may likewise be implicitly discovered and/or ranked. Moreover, locations and interactions associated with IoT devices may be tracked over time to further discover user-specific and potentially asymmetric relationships among the IoT devices and/or the users associated therewith (e.g.

Abstract: An aspect of the disclosure is directed to transmitting a reduced stream of encoded video frames. An original stream of encoded video frames is analyzed, a plurality of frames are removed without re-encoding encoded video frames to generate the reduced stream of encoded video frames, and the reduced stream and metadata describing the plurality of removed frames are transmitted. An aspect of the disclosure is directed to creating a new version of an original stream of encoded video frames from a reduced stream of encoded video frames. The reduced stream of encoded video frames is received, the plurality of removed frames is identified based on metadata related to the reduced stream, a plurality of replacement frames are generated, and the plurality of replacement frames are added to the reduced stream of encoded video frames to recreate the new version of the original stream of encoded video frames.

Abstract: The various embodiments support athletic training by using a series of real-time positions transmitted by an electronic training device to a server to identify a training segment including at least a portion of the series of positions, transmit training information related to the identified training segment to the electronic training device, and display the training information at the electronic training device. In an embodiment, a string of segments from a current location of the electronic device may be identified based on a previous route and training information related to the string of segments may be transmitted to the electronic training device and displayed at the electronic device. In the various embodiments, training information may include information related to the performance of other individuals over a segment and/or string of segments and a navigation indication identifying a direction of a segment and/or string of segments.
