Systems and methods implemented in a node in a cloud-based system include operating a first cloud service that is implemented as a monolith system; operating a RESTful framework (Representational State Transfer web service) embedded in the cloud node; and operating one or more applications for one or more cloud services utilizing the RESTful framework, wherein the one or more applications are microservices. The RESTful framework utilizes Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) methods.

An example apparatus includes: at least one memory; instructions in the apparatus; and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to: access a cookie at a client device, the cookie including a priority listing indicative of an order in which beacon requests are to be sent to ones of a plurality of database proprietors; cause a first beacon request to be sent to a first database proprietor server, the first database proprietor server corresponding to a highest priority in the priority listing of the cookie, the first beacon request indicative of access to media at the client device; and cause a second beacon request to be sent to a second database proprietor server, the second database proprietor server corresponding to a lower priority than the highest priority in the priority listing of the cookie, the second beacon request indicative of the access to the media at the client device.

Task delegation and cooperation for automated assistants is presented. A method comprises receiving, at a centralized support center that is in contact with a plurality of automated assistants including a first automated assistant and a second automated assistant, a request to perform a task on behalf of an individual, formulating, at the centralized support center, the task as a plurality of sub-tasks including a first sub-task and a second sub-task, delegating, at the centralized support center, the first sub-task to the first automated assistant, based on a determination at the centralized support center that the first automated assistant is capable of performing the first sub-task, and delegating, at the centralized support center, the second sub-task to the second automated assistant, based on a determination at the centralized support center that the second automated assistant is capable of performing the second sub-task.

Systems and methods for broadcasting events are provided. The system, for example, may include, but is not limited to, a communication system, a memory, and a processor. The processor may be configured to receive, from the communication system, a session identifier identifying a broadcast session and at least one application event corresponding to the broadcast session from a presenting electronic device, update a playback queue corresponding to the broadcast session stored in the memory based upon the received at least one application event, receive, from the communication system, a subscription request to the broadcast session from at least one subscribing electronic device, and transmit, via the communication system, a corresponding playback queue to each electronic device subscribed to the broadcast session, the playback queue including instructions to regenerate the application event within an application operating on the at least one subscribing electronic device.

[Object] Effectively perform data communication [Solving Means] A communication device includes: a LINK that generates a first output signal on a basis of a first external signal from a first external device, outputs the first output signal to a second external device, generates a second output signal on a basis of a second external signal from the second external device, and outputs the second output signal to the first external device, in which each of the first output signal and the second external signal includes command information indicating content of a command transmitted from the first external device, final-destination-device-identification-information for identifying a final destination device of data transmitted from the first external device, internal address information indicating an internal address of the final destination device, data length information indicating a length of the data transmitted from the first external device, and data-end-position-information indicating an end position of the data transmitted from the first external device.

Provided are methods and systems for variable speed playback. In one aspect the disclosure provides for receiving content having a first playback speed, determining a second playback speed for at least a portion of the content based on a playback factor, associating the second playback speed with the portion of the content, and providing at least the portion of the content at the second playback speed to a display device.

According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method comprising, transmitting by a wireless device, during a first phase, a first probe signal associated with a user and receiving a reflected version of the first probe signal, transmitting by the wireless device, during the first phase, the reflected version of the first probe signal to a ground truth classifier, transmitting by the wireless device, during a second phase, a second probe signal associated with the user and receiving a reflected version of the second probe signal and transmitting by the wireless device, during the second phase, the reflected version of the second probe signal to a trusted apparatus.

The present technique relates to a data processing apparatus and a data processing method each of which enables a burden imposed on processing on a reception side to be reduced. A data processing apparatus produces signaling containing a Null cell number exhibiting the number of Null cells of cells of a sub-frame included in a physical layer frame, and processes the signaling so as for the signaling to be contained in a preamble of the physical layer frame, thereby enabling a burden imposed on processing on a reception side to be reduced. The present technique, for example, can be applied to data transmission complying with the broadcasting standards such as ATSC3.0.

Embodiments described include systems and methods for executing in an embedded browser an application script for network applications of different origins. A client application can establish a first session with a first network application of a first entity at a first origin via an embedded browser within the client application and a second session with a second network application of a second entity at a second origin via the embedded browser within the client application. A scripting engine within the client application of a client device of a user at a third origin can identify an application script having instructions to interact with the first network application and the second network application, and can execute the instructions to perform a task across the first network application of the first entity at the first origin and the second network application of the second entity at the second origin.
