Abstract: A cross-wallet system generate a cross-platform key or a virtual account number for a first digital wallet provider to be used by the consumer when the consumer wishes to send payment to a second digital wallet provider with which the consumer does not possess an account. Moreover, the virtual account number, in one example, may only include a partial set of card number that does not include the typical set of card number. The virtual account number created by embodiments of the invention further enable security features that prevent fraud and protect the consumer's financial assets.

Abstract: A “backup services container” comprises “backup toolkits,” which include scripts for accessing containerized applications plus enabling utilities/environments for executing the scripts. The backup services container is added to Kubernetes pods comprising containerized applications without changing other pod containers. For maximum value and advantage, the backup services container is “over-equipped” with toolkits. The backup services container selects and applies a suitable backup toolkit to a containerized application to ready it for a pending backup. Interoperability with a proprietary data storage management system provides features that are not possible with third-party backup systems. Some embodiments include one or more components of the proprietary data storage management within the illustrative backup services container. Some embodiments include one or more components of the proprietary data storage management system in a backup services pod configured in a Kubernetes node.

Abstract: The present invention provides for systems and method for noninvasive measurement and monitoring of cell culture parameters including dissolved oxygen (DO), dissolved carbon dioxide (DCO2), and pH wherein there is no direct contact with the cell culture environment which is achieved by conducting the measurements and monitoring on the outside of the bioreactor through semi-permeable membranes incorporated into the system to enhance the process and eliminate the risk of contamination associated with invasive sensors.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are generally described for semantically segmenting videos. In various examples, a selection of a first video may be received. A first query to segment the first video into segments related to a first category of content may be received. A first plurality of segments related to the first category may be determined. In some examples, time code data representing the first plurality of segments may be sent to a remote computing device, wherein a video player of the remote computing device is effective to play the first plurality of segments based at least in part on the time code data.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media are disclosed for a global scheduler that manages jobs across nodes of one or more clusters. The global scheduler receives a request to replicate a volume from a first storage node to a second storage node, the global scheduler handling job scheduling for one or more storage operating systems across one or more clusters. The global scheduler stores a new job in a job queue based on the request to replicate the volume. The global scheduler determines that the new job has a higher priority than other jobs in the job queue. The global scheduler allocates one or more resources of the first storage node to the new job in response to determining that the new job has a higher priority than other jobs in the job queue. The global scheduler sends an instruction to run the new job.

Abstract: An automatic and continuous glucose monitoring apparatus and method of using same based on binding proteins. The apparatus integrates an aseptic sampling technique, a specially modified chromatography column to hold immobilized binding protein, and a microfluorometer into a compact portable device. The apparatus permits the measurement of a very wide range of concentrations—from a few micromolar to several hundreds of millimolar of glucose.

Abstract: A system is disclosed allowing a buyer to directly build a shopping cart(s) on a supplier's portal (such as website, applications) without initiating any shopping request from company's network or system (such as eProcurement system). A standard cXML document can be used to transmit a Punchout Order Message (POOM) address to a customer system where the POOM can be retrieved. Additionally, a buyer identifier (e.g., an email address) can be included in the cXML document so that the customer system can verify the buyer making purchases. An address is returned to the supplier's portal, which can be used by the buyer to complete the purchase. In one example, the address directs the buyer to log into the customer system to verify the purchase.

Abstract: A method of monitoring acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease in shrimp is disclosed. More specifically, detection of the presence of alkaline phosphatase Phox enzyme, or, of the PiRAVP and/or the PirBVP toxins of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease-causing Vibrio parahaemolyticus correlates with non-virulence or virulence, respectively, of the bacterium is disclosed. Hence, an assay capable of detecting the Phox enzyme and/or the toxins could be very useful to monitor the disease in shrimp.

Abstract: A device may receive a request to migrate source data, associated with a source platform, to a target platform. The device may select a target template associated with the target platform based on the request; obtain target information based on the target template; and generate a target mapping based on the source data and the target information. The device may analyze the target mapping to identify an unmapped element in the target mapping and determine, using a migration analysis model, a candidate mapping, for the unmapped element, between a set of the source data and a target element of the target elements. The device may provide a notification that identifies the candidate mapping, to permit a user selection associated with verifying the candidate mapping. The device may receive the user selection and migrate the source data to the target platform according to the target mapping and the user selection.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for self-service integration and feature testing. In one embodiment, a test mode service receives a request to test an integration of a third-party system with a production system. The test mode service enables at least one plugin to test at least one function of the production system. The test mode service executes at least one function using the plugin(s) and data provided by the integration of the third-party system. The test mode service then reports a result of how the production system performs the function(s) associated with the plugin(s) using test data.

Abstract: Certain embodiments described herein relate to an improved information management system that can perform platform-agnostic containerized application data protection. In one embodiment, the information management system receives a user's credentials to a container orchestrator along with an indication of whether or not to deploy a backup pod. Using the user credentials, the information management system accesses the container orchestrator, and if the user has requested deployment of a backup pod on the user's cluster, the information management system may do so using a backup pod specification and allow the backup pod to perform data protection operations, using a platform-agnostic interface (e.g., container storage interface), for application data accessible by the user applications on the user's pod on the user's cluster. Alternatively, if the user has not requested deployment of a backup pod, the information management system may perform data protection operations using provider-specific interface.
