Backup, restoration, and migration of computer systems
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for backup, restoration, and migration of computer systems. In some implementations, data from a first server environment is obtained. A data package is generated that includes configuration data, data objects, and/or metadata from the first server environment organized in a predetermined arrangement. Data indicating (i) a destination on which to deploy the archived data from the first server environment and (ii) one or more characteristics of the destination is received. Mapping data that specifies a mapping of elements in the predetermined arrangement to elements of server environments having the one or more characteristics is accessed. Server environment data derived from the data package is deployed, the server environment data being deployed to the destination and arranged at the destination in a manner specified by the mapping data.
Using mobile data to improve weather information
A system (100) for using mobile data to improve weather information is provided. The system (100) includes a weather prediction station (120) configured to receive stationary observation data provided by a plurality of stationary weather stations (110) along with data from a plurality of input weather models (115) and generate unified weather model estimates based on the stationary observation data, the input weather model data, and a processor (130). The processor (130) is configured to aggregate mobile observation data provided by a plurality of non-stationary sensors (140) and use the aggregated mobile observation data to adjust the weather model estimates.

Efficient management of optimal read levels for flash storage systems
Tuning information associated with a storage device of a plurality of storage devices is received. One or more characteristics associated with the storage device are determined. The tuning information and the one or more characteristics are provided to the plurality of storage devices, wherein providing the tuning information causes a set of the plurality of storage devices to apply the tuning information based on the one or more characteristics.
Product validation based on simulated enhanced calling or messaging communications services in telecommunications network
A system configures a test case including a test script to validate a new product. The test script has a logic flow for communications through a sequence of network nodes and the test case includes pass/fail criteria for parameter data of packets communicated between the sequence of network nodes. The system initiates an automation engine that is configured to execute the test script and validates the new product based on actual parameter data relative to the pass/fail criteria. The system simulates the enhanced calling or messaging communications service to utilize by the new product during the test. The system instantiates a network probe that captures packets of the network nodes and extracts actual parameter data, which is compared to expected parameter data to generate test results relative to the pass/fail criteria. The system can present an indication that the new product passed/failed the test case based on the test results.
COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD
A communication system includes a management apparatus and an agent apparatus. The management apparatus broadcasts the voice of an utterance of one of users of mobile communication terminals to the mobile communication terminals of the other users and to chronologically accumulate the result of utterance voice recognition of the utterance voice as a user-to-user communication history to control text delivery such that the communication history is displayed on the mobile communication terminals in synchronization. The agent apparatus produces an agent utterance text based on detection information output from a state detection device provided for a monitoring target and transmitting the agent utterance text to the management apparatus. The management apparatus broadcasts synthesized voice data of the agent utterance text to the mobile communication terminals and to chronologically accumulate the agent utterance text in the user-to-user communication history to control text delivery to the mobile communication terminals.
DELAY MEASUREMENT APPARATUS, DELAY MEASUREMENT METHOD AND PROGRAM
A delay measurement device that is to be connected, via a communication network, to a rendering server that performs rendering processing on an image, includes: transmission means for transmitting, to the rendering server, sensor information acquired from a sensor included in the delay measurement device and trigger information acquired in a predetermined time period; receiving means for receiving a rendered image generated through the rendering processing performed in the rendering server based on the sensor information and the trigger information; and measurement means for measuring a predetermined delay based on a difference between a first time indicating a time when the trigger information was transmitted to the rendering server and a second time indicating a time when the rendered image or a predetermined image was displayed.
MASTER DEVICE, DATA DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM
A first package corresponding to a first system and a second package corresponding to a second system are downloaded from a center device, and an update data is extracted from the first package and the second package. An electronic control device as a write target installs the update data and activates the update data after an install of the update data is completed. All electronic control devices as a first write target corresponding to the first system and all electronic control devices as a second write target corresponding to the second system are instructed at a same timing to activate the update data after completing the install of the update data in all the electronic control devices.
MOVING IMAGE DISTRIBUTION METHOD, MOVING IMAGE REPRODUCTION METHOD, MOVING IMAGE DISTRIBUTION APPARATUS, AND DISTRIBUTION DATA STRUCTURE
A moving image distribution method and a moving image distribution apparatus for reducing an increase in server load due to a change in a user's line of sight includes storing a video stream for each viewpoint of a plurality of viewpoints defined on a sphere with a camera as a point of observation, the video stream covering the sphere, and distributing the video stream to a user terminal. The distributing including distributing the video stream for the viewpoint other than a nearest viewpoint, corresponding to a line of sight determined by the user terminal, on the sphere.
Fraud detection system in a casino
A fraud detection system which detects fraud in a game of performing collection and redemption of chips in accordance with a win or lose result includes a camera which captures an image of chips contained in a chip tray of a dealer, an image analyzing apparatus which analyses the image captured by the camera to detect an amount of the chips contained in the chip tray, a card distribution device which determines a win or lose result of a game, and a control device which compares the win or lose result of the game and the amount of the chips contained in the chip tray before and after collection and redemption of the chips to detect fraud.
