Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for determining a state of a pressurized chamber of a suspension of a vehicle, wherein the pressurized chamber comprises a hydraulic fluid chamber and a gas chamber separated by a piston. The state is determined by varying a pressure in the hydraulic fluid chamber and determining a knee point in a change of pressure in the hydraulic fluid chamber. The knee point indicates that the separator has been bottomed out. The pressure in the knee point may be used to determine a state of the suspension system.

Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for enforcing policies for unmanaged applications. A user supplied script can be evaluated to determine whether an application is installed on a computing device. In response to a determination that the application is installed on the computing device, a request can be sent to a management service for at least one policy applicable to the application. The policy can be evaluated to determine whether the application complies with the policy.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method relate an edge device with a local machine learning model, which generates local prediction data and confidence score data, in response to sensor data. Query threshold data is received from a cloud computing system. An assessment result is assessed using the confidence score data and the query threshold data. The assessment result indicates whether or not to generate a query with the sensor data for transmission to the cloud computing system. The local predication data is assigned as a prediction result when the assessment result indicates that the query is not being generated and transmitted. The cloud prediction data is assigned as the prediction result when the assessment result indicates that the query is being generated and transmitted. The cloud prediction data is received from the cloud computing system in response to the query. The edge device is controlled using the prediction result.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method relate to managing a cloud computing system. Queries are received from one or more edge devices of a set of edge devices. Each query includes sensor data from the respective edge device. Prediction data is generated via one or more cloud machine learning models, using the sensor data, during a current time period. System state data is generated and indicates a current state of an environment during the current time period. The environment is defined by the cloud computing system and the set of edge devices. A machine learning system generates policy data by optimizing an expected return of a reward with respect to taking a particular action given the system state data. The machine learning system is employed by the cloud computing system. The policy data indicates a recommended action from a set of actions. The cloud computing system performs the recommended action.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide an active mechanism that compares performance of Wi-Fi connectivity provided by a fixed wireless access point to cellular connectivity to determine the best option for a particular UE, based on a particular usage, at a particular point in time. Initially, an indication is received from a fixed wireless access point that is experiencing congestion that a UE has connected to the fixed wireless access point. If congestion metrics of the fixed wireless access point are determined to be above a threshold, collocated cells or neighboring cells that are not experiencing congestion are detected. Next, instructions are provided for the UE to: disconnect from the fixed wireless access point and connect to an alternate cell of the collocated cells or neighboring cells; or deprioritize Wi-Fi for a given amount of time.

The computing device may generate a signed URL by prefixing the pre-signed URL with the first identifier of the first user device. The computing device may receive a second request to access the resource. Based on comparing a second identifier corresponding to the second request with the first identifier in the signed URL, the computing device may grant or deny the second request access to the resource.
