Embodiments of this application provide a service survivability analysis method and apparatus, and relate to the field of communications technologies, so as to shorten duration of service survivability analysis and improve efficiency of the service survivability analysis. The method includes: obtaining a link fault record and network topology information that are in a preset time period; determining a similarity between any two links in all faulty links based on fault occurrence time and fault removal time of the any two links in the link fault record and connection information of network devices on the any two links, to obtain a link similarity matrix; performing clustering on all the faulty links based on the link similarity matrix, to obtain at least one link cluster; and performing survivability analysis on services on at least two preset links based on each of the at least one link cluster.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing a signaling location beacon are provided. Specifically, a collection location for collecting, by an agent, an item is determined. Also, a physical beacon associated with the pickup location can be identified. Further, an interaction between the physical beacon and the agent can be detected. For example, the interaction can occur based on the physical beacon and the agent being in physical proximity to each other during a process of the agent collecting the item at the collection location. As follows, in response to the interaction, transmission of a sensory signal to the agent can be facilitated to provide perceivable direction information associated with the physical location to the agent. The sensory signal can be specific to the agent based on the interaction between the physical beacon and the agent.

A method and system for maintaining privacy in private postal mail, such as privileged or other legal postal mail or medical mail, at a correctional facility comprising a privacy verification system to verify a privacy status of a sender and generate privacy status identifiers to be used on the legal postal mail. The privacy status identifiers when scanned or observed at a mail processing facility that processes incoming mail sent to inmates who are incarcerated in a correctional facility provides an indication to the mail processing facility that the mail is private so that appropriate measures can be taken to maintain privacy status.

Apparatus transmits an identifier for association with a virtual area by an administering network service, generates output data from human perceptible stimulus in a physical space, transmits the output data in connection with the virtual area, receives input data associated with the virtual area, and generates human perceptible stimulus in the physical space from the input data. A persistent association is created between the apparatus and a virtual area. A respective presence is established in the virtual area for a communicant operating a client network node connected to the virtual area. A respective connection between each active pair of complementary sources and sinks of the client network node and the apparatus are administered in association with the virtual area. A client network node displays a graphical user interface, establishes the administered connections, and presents interaction controls associated with the object for interacting with communicants in the physical space.

The present application relates to the technical field of allocating the SIM resource, and provides a method and a system for allocating a SIM card resource, a terminal device and a storage medium, including acquiring a SIM card resource allocation request of a requesting terminal, and determining candidate SIM card resource sharing information corresponding to the SIM card resource allocation request; determining a target SIM card resource sharing information from the candidate SIM card resource sharing information, and acquiring a target terminal corresponding to the target SIM card resource sharing information; establishing a SIM card resource transmission channel between the target terminal and the requesting terminal; and allocating a SIM card resource corresponding to the target terminal to the requesting terminal through the SIM card resource transmission channel. The present application avoids the waste of SIM card resource by reallocating SIM card resource.

A method includes providing device management services to by defining one or more transaction control primitives and one or more transaction initiation commands for modifying a management tree of a managed device, mapping the transaction control primitives and transaction initiation commands to device management commands for the managed device, transmitting the device management commands to the managed device, determining a relevance of any of the transmitted device management commands that fail to execute, and based on the relevance determination, allowing the managed device to modify the management tree without executing the commands that fail to execute.

A server and an operating method for an e-mail printing service are provided. The operating method includes receiving an e-mail to be sent to an e-mail address of an image forming apparatus, determining whether the received e-mail is a confirmation request e-mail for confirming whether the e-mail address of the image forming apparatus is correct, creating a reply e-mail when the received e-mail is the confirmation request e-mail, the reply e-mail indicating that the e-mail address of the image forming apparatus is correct, and returning the reply e-mail to a sender address of the received e-mail.

Systems and methods which are adapted to generate multiple indicia in a single secure environment session are described. Embodiments provide for generation of a plurality of postage indicia in a single postage security device (PSD) transaction, whereby the PSD loads and unloads corresponding virtual PSD information a single time for generating the plurality of postage indicia (i.e., in a single secure environment session). The indicia generated in a same secure environment session according to embodiments of the invention may comprise a plurality of indicia requested by a same, single user. Additionally or alternatively, the indicia generated in the same secure environment session may comprise a plurality of indicia requested by multiple different users.

A method includes, transmitting, prior to an end time of an event to a plurality of driver computing devices, navigational data to direct the plurality of driver computing devices to navigate to a location of the event to transport passengers. The transmitting is based on a schedule for arriving at the location of the event prior to receipt of transportation requests. The method further includes, subsequent to the transmitting of the navigational data, communicating with an event information source of a second server device during the event to obtain updated information regarding how much time is remaining prior to the end time of the event. The method further includes, responsive to generating an updated schedule based on the updated information received during the event, directing the plurality of driver computing devices to the location of the event based on the updated schedule.
