Abstract: Embodiments herein describe partitioning an acceleration device based on the needs of each user application executing in a host. In one embodiment, a flexible queue provisioning method allows the acceleration device to be dynamically partitioned by pushing the configuration through a control command queue to the device by management software running in a trusted zone. The new configuration is parsed and verified by trusted firmware, which, then, creates isolated IO command queues on the acceleration device. These IO command queues can be directly mapped to a user application, VM, or other PCIe devices. In one embodiment, each IO command queue exposes only the compute resource assigned by the trusted firmware in the acceleration device.

Abstract: A method for generating and processing bundled notification request messages includes, at a producer NF, receiving subscription request messages from consumer NFs via one or more SCPs. The method further includes obtaining and storing, from the subscription request messages validated by the producer NF, identities of SCPs within a last N hops of SCPs from the producer NF, N being an integer of at least one. The method further includes detecting an event requiring notifications to a plurality of the consumer NFs. The method further includes identifying, from the SCPs within the last N hops of SCPs from the producer NF, a group of SCPs for which the notifications can be bundled. The method further includes generating a bundled notification request message for the group of SCPs for which the notifications can be bundled. The method further includes transmitting the bundled notification request message to a first-hop SCP in the group of SCPs.

Abstract: Systems and methods for random vehicle movement to prevent theft are disclosed. The vehicle system may automatically reposition to make it seem like the user is home and to reduce battery drain and flat spots on the tire. The system may randomize the start time based on the preferences of the user. At the randomly decided time, the vehicle may start up on its own and reposition itself. In addition, the system may learn a driving behavior pattern of the vehicle via machine learning based on driving behavior associated with the vehicle, such that the vehicle may perform vehicle movement based on the learned driving behavior pattern.

Abstract: In one embodiment, dynamic user private networks are virtually segmented within a shared virtual network. A network control system maintains the dynamic logical segmentation of the shared virtual network. User entities (e.g., user devices and/or services) are communicatively coupled to respective personal virtual networks via endpoints of access devices. Each of these endpoints is associated with a corresponding user private network. Responsive in real-time to automated processing of a received electronic particular user request, the network control system automatically modifies the dynamic logical segmentation of the shared virtual network to move a particular user entity on the shared virtual network to newly being on the first dynamic user private network without being disconnected from the shared virtual network. One embodiment uses different user private network identifiers (UPN-IDs) associated with endpoints and received packets to identify their respective user private network.

Abstract: Training query intents are allocated for multiple training entities into training time intervals in a time series based on a corresponding query intent time for each training query intent. Training performance results for the multiple training entities are allocated into the training time intervals in the time series based on a corresponding performance time of each training performance result. A machine learning model for a training milestone of the time series is trained based on the training query intents allocated to a training time interval prior to the training milestone and the training performance results allocated to a training time interval after the training milestone. Target performance for the target entity for an interval after a target milestone in the time series is predicted by inputting to the trained machine learning model target query intents allocated to the target entity in a target time interval before the target milestone.
