A system for remote editing of a file includes a database including a plurality of source media content files and a content host configured to generate a first proxy for at least a portion of a first one of the source media content files, the first proxy including data sufficient to enable a remote user device to identify a portion of content of the first source media content file to be included in a generated clip, the content host configured to receive from the remote user device a request to create the generated clip from the first source media content file, the request indicating parameters defining, based on the data in the first proxy, the portion of the first source media content file to be included in the generated clip, the content host configured to create the generated clip based on the parameters indicated in the request.

A system and method for federated, context-sensitive, acoustic model refinement comprising a federated language model server and a plurality of edge devices. The federated language model server may comprise one or more machine learning models trained and developed centrally on the server, and distribute these one or more machine learning models to edge devices wherein they may be operated locally on the edge devices. The edge devices may gather or generate context data that can be used by a speech recognition engine, and the local language models contained therein, to develop adaptive, context-sensitive, user-specific language models. Periodically, the federated language model server may select a subset of edge devices from which to receive uploaded local model parameters, that may be aggregated to perform central model updates wherein the updated model parameters may then be sent back to edge devices in order to update the local model parameters.

The invention provides, in one aspect, an improved system for data access comprising a file server that is coupled to a client device or application executing thereon via one or more networks. The server comprises static storage that is organized in one or more directories, each containing, zero, one or more files. The server also comprises a file system operable, in cooperation with a file system on the client device, to provide authorized applications executing on the client device access to those directories and/or files. Fast file server (FFS) software or other functionality executing on or in connection with the server responds to requests received from the client by transferring requested data to the client device over multiple network pathways. That data can comprise, for example, directory trees, files (or portions thereof), and so forth.

Some embodiments provide a system that executes a web application. During operation, the system loads the web application in a web browser and loads a native code module associated with the web application into a secure runtime environment. Next, the system provides input data associated with the web application to the native code module and processes the input data using the native code module to obtain output data. Finally, the system provides the output data to the web application for use by the web application.

A method of configuring or changing a configuration of a POS terminal by at least one operator, in which an authorization of the operator by the POS terminal is established, in which after successful authorization of the at least one operator, the at least one operator carries out the configuration or change of the configuration, in which an identification feature for identification of the at least one operator is introduced into the POS terminal, in which this identification feature is used for authorizing the at least one operator. A method of associating a POS terminal with an operator, in which the POS terminal checks the integrity of the identification feature of the operator for identification of the operator, with which the POS terminal is associated.

A method comprising obtaining, from a master user, a device usage allocation applicable to two or more devices, the two or more devices being associated with another user, the another user being different from the master user, obtaining an aggregate measure of device usage associated with the two or more devices, if the aggregate measure of device usage associated with the two or more devices satisfies a condition relative to the device usage allocation, managing an activity of the two or more devices, and sending a notification to at least one of the two or more devices, the notification for presentation to the another user through a user interface of the at least one of the two or more devices.

The present disclosure facilitates improving the operation of a cloud service by updating its configuration information and its resource requirements. The resource utilization of the cloud service can be monitored, and a decision logic module can determine whether action is required. When action is required, an update can be prepared and applied, and notifications can be generated about the condition and its resolution. Resolutions can require correlation of multiple cloud services to provide real-time access to information that is not otherwise available to a single entity. Resolutions can be learned and predicted in a number of ways using a predictive engine.

A system, method and program for localizing web page interfaces via asynchronous data and automatic binding. The system, method and program employ a terminal for use with a communication network. The terminal comprises a server that is configured to bind web page core data representing a web page with locale data local to the terminal to create web page data. The locale data pertains to a location in which the terminal is disposed. The server is further configured to bind different locale data with the web page core data to create modified web page data.

Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and software for configuration change processing for end-user content request handling in content delivery nodes. In one example, a method of changing a content configuration for a content delivery node includes receiving a configuration change request by an end user. The method further provides, processing the configuration change request and a present configuration to generate a changed configuration comprising an assembly level code representation of the changed configuration, and transferring the changed configuration for delivery to the content delivery node.

A television and system and method for providing a remote control device are disclosed. In one embodiment of the television, the television includes a processor, a memory, a tuner, a panel, and an audio driver therein in an interconnected architecture. The television may establish a pairing with a proximate wireless-enabled interactive programmable device, such as a proximate wireless-enabled interactive handheld device having a touch screen display, whereby formatted parallel audiovisual experience instructions, including virtual buttons, may be transmitted to the proximate wireless-enabled interactive programmable device for display on the touch screen display to create an experience parallel to the experience on the television. The television receives and processes virtual remote control functionality input instructions from the proximate wireless-enabled interactive programmable device to control amenities associated with the television.
