In network devices, during manufacturing, input for designation of a region code to be a non-specific region code is stored in a BIOS memory of the network device, and a specific region code is stored off the BIOS. During boot up, the BIOS is checked for a specific region code to regulate wireless transmissions at a physical location of operation. Responsive to receiving the non-specific region code from BIOS, the specific region code is requested from a region code server based on a network device identifier. Once received, the region code is stored in flash memory, until rebooted or otherwise reset, rather than BIOS.

A media server is disclosed, and comprises one or more non-transitory computer-readable memory devices upon which at least one set of instructions are stored, one or more processors, a request module, an authentication module, a filtering module, a publishing module, and a commercialization module. The request module is electronically coupled with the one or more non-transitory computer-readable memory devices for requesting data associated with media content from one or more remote electronic devices electronically coupled with the media server.

The system and methods described allow a content delivery application to provide temporary access to a content item for display on a content access device based on a user obtaining access to the content item initially on another system. The content delivery application receives content accessed confirmation that user access a content item and then monitors whether that access was interrupted. If the access was interrupted, the content delivery application generates a content access bookmark based on a content timeline and stores a content access authorization comprising the content access bookmark and an identifier from the profile. When the user requests the content item, the content delivery application transmits access information corresponding to segments of the content item, based on the content access bookmark to a user's device.

Systems and methods for generating and facilitating access to a personalized augmented rendering of a user to be presented in an augmented reality environment are discussed herein. The augmented rendering of a user may be personalized by the user to comprise a desired representation of the user in an augmented reality environment. When a second user is detected within the field of view of a first user, the second user may be identified and virtual content (e.g., an augmented rendering) for the second user may be obtained. The virtual content obtained may differ based on one or more subscriptions for the first user and/or permissions associated with the virtual content of the second user. The virtual content obtained may be rendered and appear superimposed over or in conjunction with a view of the second in the augmented reality environment.

A method for issuing digital credentials includes assigning a digital credential to a user account maintained by the digital content delivery system; receiving, from a mobile computing device associated with the user account, a first request for the digital credential; in response to receiving the first request: determining whether a current location of the mobile computing device is within a predetermined geographic distance of the selected exhibitor location, and determining whether a remaining amount of time until a scheduled start time of the selected scheduled presentation is less than a threshold amount of time; and in response to determining that either the current location of the mobile computing device is outside of the predetermined geographic distance of the selected exhibitor location or the remaining amount of time until the scheduled start time of the selected scheduled presentation is greater than the threshold amount of time, denying the first request.

Systems and methods are described for applying digital rights management techniques to tethered devices. In one embodiment, a host device is operable to translate a relatively sophisticated license into a simpler format for use on a relatively low-capability device. In another embodiment, a method of using extended SCSI commands to communicate over a USB connection is provided.

A method for managing media rights of content recorded at a venue may include arranging physical identifiers at selected locations around the venue; and recording an image of an event occurring within the venue, wherein the image includes one or more of the physical identifiers, wherein processing of the image permits the physical identifiers to be used to identify the image.

A computer program product includes program instructions configured for execution by a processor to perform various operations. The operations include accessing a system resource database including, for each of a plurality of disaggregated computing hardware resources within a composable computing system, hardware characteristics that describe the disaggregated computing hardware resource, wherein the hardware characteristics include a physical location of the disaggregated computing hardware resource. The operations further include identifying a first workload request that requests performance of a first workload, identifying a physical location requirement for the first workload, selecting a subset of the disaggregated computing hardware resources to be included in a first computing subsystem for performance of the first workload in compliance with the physical location requirement for the first workload, provisioning of the first computing subsystem, and assigning the first computing subsystem to perform the first workload.
