Abstract: A delay event system is described that maintains a main copy of a time wheel, which includes a plurality of slots that each correspond to a different time. The main copy of the time wheel is maintained at a first node, and a plurality of replica copies of the time wheel are maintained at different nodes. Events scheduled for future execution are placed into an appropriate time wheel slot and propagated to the replica copies. Each time wheel one of the slots in the main copy of the time wheel. Upon writing a delay event to the main copy of the time wheel, event replicas are propagated to each of the replica copies of the time wheel, such that each copy of the time wheel include the same information for the delay event. The time wheels are advanced synchronously and used to trigger events at their designated time(s).

Abstract: A method, terminal, and system for transmitting a file between multiple terminals is described. The method includes obtaining a picture, which is photographed by a file receiving end from a file sending end from a file sending end and includes a to-be-transmitted file, and performing image recognition on the obtained picture to determine the to-be-transmitted file of the file sending end, the picture of the to-be-transmitted file being displayed on a display interface of the file sending end. The method further includes determining a file path of the to-be-transmitted file according to the determined to-be-transmitted file, obtaining the to-be-transmitted file according to the file path of the to-be-transmitted file, and transmitting the to-be-transmitted file to the file receiving end.

Abstract: A mobile terminal receives a user instruction for performing facial recognition to a picture displayed on the mobile terminal and highlights each human face in the picture by a corresponding face identifying object. After receiving a user selection of two or more face identifying objects and a user-inputted target attribute value for each face identifying object, the mobile terminal generates an attribute value transfer request according to the user-inputted target attribute values, facial recognition information associated with the face identifying objects, and a first user identifier associated with the mobile terminal and sends the attribute value transfer request to a remote server. The server determines a second user identifier based on the facial recognition information associated with each face identifying object and transfers a corresponding target attribute value between the first and second user identifiers when the second user identifier is on a user-relationship chain of the first user identifier.

Abstract: A user attribute value transfer method, includes: obtaining a picture; performing facial recognition to recognize human faces in the picture; according to an entered instruction, determining a target human face selected from recognized human faces and determining a corresponding target attribute value; generating an attribute value transfer request according to the target attribute value and corresponding facial recognition information; and sending the attribute value transfer request to a server, so that the server performs an attribute value transfer operation according to the attribute value transfer request.
