Abstract: A system can efficiently control access to an interactive computing environment using an entity profile. The system can receive entity data relating to a target entity. The entity data can include real-time data and external data. The system can extract features from the entity data. The system can generate signals based on the features. Each signal can include a subset of the features, and each signal can correspond to an amount of risk associated with the target entity. The system can generate, based on the signals, an entity profile. The system can provide a responsive message based on the entity profile that can be used to control access to an interactive computing environment.

Abstract: Traditional approaches for recommending optimum combination of quantum circuits are experimentation based approaches, and require manual efforts or are cumbersome, effort intensive and iterative processes. Method and system disclosed herein generally relates to quantum experimentation, and, more particularly, for recommending optimum combination of quantum circuits. In this approach, a high-level combination of experiments are initially generated, which are further prioritized using a graph based approach, which then forms a training data. The training data is then used for generating a GNN data model, which is further used for recommending optimum combination of quantum circuits.

Abstract: The techniques describe adaptive load-balancing based on traffic feedback from packet processors. In one example, a source virtual network node of the network device may determine whether a particular destination packet processor is or may become oversubscribed. For example, source packet processors of the source virtual network node may exchange feedback messages including traffic flow rate information. The source virtual network node may compute a total traffic flow rate and compare the total traffic flow rate with a bandwidth of the particular destination packet processor. In response to determining that the bandwidth of the destination packet processor is oversubscribed, the source virtual network node may update a forwarding plane data structure to reduce a likelihood of selecting the destination packet processor to which to forward packet flows.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to provide, in a cloud infrastructure environment, an array agnostic automated storage tiering mechanism, wherein storage array types may be different. A user can select storage with an automated storage tiering policy while details of the storage are abstracted for the user. In embodiments, tiering policies determine a location for data based upon activity associated with the data.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to create with user input a first isolation zone in a block in a cloud computing environment, the block comprising first and second VSANs, a virtualization management VLAN, a file storage VLAN, and identity pools. The isolation zone can be applied to one or more services. The user can achieve a desired isolation between block components, such as VSANs and/or VLANs, in services.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to provide, in a cloud infrastructure environment a shared storage service with only storage, wherein the storage can be shared with other managed services. The storage is exposed to hosts with commands to the storage, networking, and compute resources.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a cloud storage system to add a first one of a compute, network, and/or storage layer resource to the service, provision the added first one of the compute, network, and/or storage layer resources, and activate the provisioned first one of the compute, network, and/or storage layer resources into the already provisioned service with minimal interruption of the service to elastically add a resource to the service.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to create zones for ports from a storage layer to a compute layer both coupled to a storage area network switch. In one embodiment, the storage layer includes ports in field replaceable unit (FRU) port groups, the port groups in FRU adapters, and the adapters in FRU adapter groups. The ports can be selected to minimize single points of failure.

Abstract: A system for broadcasting television programs over the Internet. A content provider, such as a broadcaster of a sports event, packages a television program into digital packets, and transmits the packets over the Internet to subscribers, from a first location. The content provider periodically pauses in transmitting the packets, to allow advertisers to transmit advertising messages during the pauses, from a second location. Arrangements are provided to synchornize the content provider and the advertisers.

Abstract: Program insertion in real time IP multicast enables the seamless insertion of a secondary program within an IP multicast session of a primary program. A primary content provider transmits its multimedia stream to a first proxy that transmits the data to a destination multicast session. A secondary content provider interested in inserting a program into that destination multicast session sends a request through a second proxy to the first proxy requesting a time slot to insert secondary program. The request includes the duration of the secondary program. The first proxy responds with a time slot or a denial of the request depending if a time slot is available. Assuming an available time slot, at the appropriate time the first proxy transfers control of the destination multicast session to the second proxy which transmits the secondary program. Upon completion of the secondary program the second proxy returns control of the session to the first proxy.
