An operation method with fingerprint event recognition, an apparatus, and a mobile terminal relate to the field of communications technologies. The method includes receiving a fingerprint event from a user at a preset position on a mobile terminal, and displaying on a display screen of the mobile terminal at least one shortcut when the fingerprint matches a stored fingerprint event. A sliding gesture input from the user is detected, the sliding gesture starting at the preset position and extending from the preset position to select a first shortcut from the at least one shortcut, thereby improving operation efficiency.

A quantum computing system that includes a reconfigurable quantum processing unit optically coupled to a photon source and a photon detector and having a plurality of Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs), and a controller communicatively coupled to the plurality of MZIs and configured to generate a control signal to alter a phase setting of at least one of the plurality of MZIs and the plurality of MZIs are configured to alter a phase of one or more photons that traverse the plurality of MZIs. In addition, the quantum computing system includes a quantum memory array having a plurality of quantum memories optically coupled to the plurality of MZIs, where each quantum memory is configured to absorb a photon received by the quantum memory, the received photon including quantum information, and release a photon including the quantum information of the received photon into the reconfigurable quantum processing unit.

A method, system and computer readable medium for running a legacy application on a non-legacy device. Operating parameters of the non-legacy device when running the legacy application are set based on one or more pre-determined heuristics for adjustment of operating parameters of the newer system when running the legacy application on the non-legacy device from one or more performance metrics and other performance information.

Disclosed are various implementations for distributing and installing packages in response to user logon events. A logon event associated with a user account is detected for a client device. A query containing a respective user account identifier is sent to a provisioning service to retrieve a set of packages to install on the client device. The set of packages are received from the provisioning service and installed on the client device.

Systems, devices, and methods discussed herein are directed to modifying aspects of a compute instance. A user may request a change to the compute instance. The system may derive a state object indicating a future state of the compute instance were the change to be applied. A hash of a subset of the state object's attributes may be computed and provided to the requesting computing component. The system may subsequently proceed with applying the change. A current state object indicating a current state of the compute instance may be derived based on applying the change. An additional hash of the subset of the current state object's attributes may be computed and provided to the requesting computing component. The two hashes may be configured to enable the requesting computing component to verify the change to the compute instance has been implemented.

Systems and methods for configuration file editing during the execution of the configuration process can include initiating a configuration process using a configuration file referencing a sequence of tasks and receiving a command to edit the configuration file. They can also include, responsive to the receipt of the command, pausing the configuration process and modifying one or more tasks in the sequence of tasks to generate a modified configuration file. They can further include resuming the configuration process using the modified configuration file from a point at which the execution was paused.

Techniques for implementing rollback of infrastructure changes in an infrastructure orchestration service are described. In certain examples, an infrastructure orchestration service is disclosed that manages both provisioning and deploying of infrastructure assets within a cloud environment. The service receives a plan comprising a set of instructions associated with a set of infrastructure assets of an execution target and identifies a first state of the set of infrastructure assets. The service executes the set of instructions in the plan to achieve a second state for the set of infrastructure assets. Based in part on the executing, the service receives a trigger for rolling back the plan to restore the set of infrastructure assets in the plan to the first state and executes a rollback plan for the plan. The service then transmits a result associated with the execution of the rollback plan.

Maintaining a synchronous replication relationship between two or more storage systems, including: receiving, by at least one of a plurality of storage systems across which a dataset will be synchronously replicated, timing information for at least one of the plurality of storage systems; and establishing, based on the timing information, a synchronous replication lease describing a period of time during which the synchronous replication relationship is valid, wherein a request to modify the dataset may only be acknowledged after a copy of the dataset has been modified on each of the storage systems.

Provided are systems and methods for contextually providing services via a portable computer at a selected location. According to some embodiments, the systems and methods include processes for determining location-specific information about the selected location, determining status information about a user of the portable computer interface, and displaying an available service to the user on a display screen of the portable computer, the available service being selected based on the location-specific information and the status information.

The present application describes a method and apparatus for updating a service in a service layer function of a network. In particular, a method for adding a service is disclosed. Initially, a request is received at a service enabler function located in the service layer function to add the service. A service description of the requested service is reviewed to understand its capabilities. A verification request is sent to a service capability located in the service layer function. Further, another service layer function or application is notified that the requested service is enabled.
