Abstract: A method for geolocating a mobile computing device within an indoor environment. One embodiment may comprise generating a geolocation request audio signal by a speaker of a first device starting at a first point in time, receiving, by a microphone of the first device, a reply audio signal from a second device, and extracting, by one or more processors of the first device, information encoded in the reply audio signal. The method may further comprise estimating, by the one or more processors, a receipt time by the first device for the reply audio signal and calculating a first time of flight (TOF) using the first point in time and the estimated receipt time for a second audio signal. The first device may comprise a smartphone and the second device may comprise a beacon located at a known location in an indoor environment.

Abstract: An approach for replicating data is provided. A job that modifies data objects in a first system to generate a first set of changed data objects is determined to be a candidate for a job replication. Based on the job being a candidate for job replication, attributes of the job are retrieved, the retrieved attributes are sent to a second system, and an execution of the job by the second system is initiated as part of the job replication. The execution of the job causes data objects included in the second system to be modified to generate a second set of changed data objects as a replication of the first set of changed data objects.
