The system also provides identification and testing of network elements deployed at various customer premises, behind a demarcation device.

According to various embodiments, an electronic device may comprise: at least one communication circuit, and at least one processor, and the at least one processor may be configured to: receive, from an external electronic device through the at least one communication circuit, a message requesting network configuration information including network role information set to a configurator, transmit, to the external electronic device through the at least one communication circuit, a message including network configuration information of the electronic device, update the network configuration information, transmit, to the external electronic device through the at least one communication circuit, a message indicating that the network configuration information is updated, and transmit, to the external electronic device through the at least one communication circuit, a message including updated network configuration information.

Technology related to scheduling services on a platform including configurable computing resources is disclosed. In one example, a method includes scheduling a service to execute on a first computing node based on an availability of general-purpose computing resources at the first computing node. The first computing node can be selected from a plurality of computing nodes. Network traffic transiting the first computing node can be analyzed during the execution of the service to determine a hardware accelerator of a second computing node is capable of assisting the execution of the service. The service can be scheduled to execute on the second computing node and the hardware accelerator of the second computing node can be used to assist with the execution of the service.

The portable peripheral (1001) of communication with a data storage peripheral and a data network utilizing the internet protocol, comprises: a connector to mechanically connect and establish a removable wired connection between the peripheral and a portable terminal, a first means of wired bidirectional communication with the portable terminal, a second means of bidirectional communication with a data storage peripheral or a data network and a security unit protecting the communication between the portable terminal and the data storage peripheral or the data network, this communication being established between the first and the second means of communication.

An apparatus is provided. The apparatus including a plurality of network interfaces, including a first network interface and a second network interface. The apparatus also includes a processor with two or more independent processing units, including a first independent processing unit and a second independent processing unit. The apparatus further includes a memory having first instructions and second instructions stored thereon. Execution of the first instructions, cause the first independent processing unit to execute operations associated with a first operating system and communicate, via the first network interface, over a bi-direction communication, with one or more platform computing devices. Execution of the second instructions, cause the second independent processing unit to execute real-time operations associated with a second operating system and communicate, via the second network interface, with one or more computing devices each having one or more sensors thereon.

Embodiments disclosed herein are related to a method that can include displaying first content on a media display, receiving first data generated from or determined by an Internet of Things (IoT) device, and displaying second content in response to receiving the first data from the IoT device.

Provided is a process of managing rack-mounted computing devices in a data center with a distributed peer-to-peer management system, the process including: determining roles of data-center management computing devices in a distributed peer-to-peer data-center management system; receiving, via an out-of-band network, a data-center management command at a given data-center management computing device; distributing, based on at least some of the roles, via the out-of-band network, the data-center management command.

Systems and methods are disclosed for secure transmission of computer server event notifications, including receiving a topic subscription request from a partner, registering the partner topic subscription request, obtaining a new computer server event to report, determining a subscribed partner subscribed to computer server events of a same type as the new computer server event, transmitting an event notification to the subscribed partner, and registering the event notification.
