The described technology relates to a software application architecture allowing for creation of a web application that has multiple Single Page Applications (SPAs) within the application. The software application architecture includes components that are common to each page of the web application while also having components that are dynamically loaded to cater to specific respective pages within the application. The dynamically loadable components can be identified based on an identifier in a path being browsed using a web browser application. The described application architecture may be used in the context of AngularJS, as well as other SPA technologies and non-SPA technologies.

The present disclosure describes a point-to-multipoint communication system having a service provider system and one or more subscriber devices. The one or more subscriber devices include multiple physical layer (PHY) devices that can be used for upstream direction and/or downstream direction transfer of information to and/or from the service provider system. The one or more subscriber devices receive subscriber device configuration information from the service provider system indicating which of these multiple PHY devices are to be used for the upstream direction and/or the downstream direction transfer of the information to and/or from the service provider system. In some situations, the subscriber device configuration information identifies various types of information, such as video, audio, and/or data to provide some examples, to be transferred in the upstream direction and/or the downstream direction and/or one or more PHY devices to be used for transferring the various types of information.

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.

Embodiments described herein provide for a satellite device that can be associated with a user account of a minor aged (e.g., child or adolescent) user that does not have a smartphone that can be used as a companion device to the satellite device. The satellite device can be configured to be used as a primary device, without reliance upon a paired smartphone. Certain information can be synchronized with the satellite device via the association with the family account. During initial configuration, a set of cryptographic keys can be generated to associate the account of the satellite device with the set of accounts in the family. The satellite device can then access calendars, media, or other data that is shared with user accounts within a family of user accounts.

An information processing system, a service providing device, and an information processing method. The information processing system receives a request for downloading a client program to a client terminal from a user operating the client terminal, determines at least one client program from one or more client programs according to the login method of the user, and control to send the determined client program to the client terminal.

A method of remotely configuring one or more building system components at a building site uses a cloud-based server remote from the building site. The cloud-based server receives information from an intelligent gateway at the building site that identifies each of one or more building system components at the building site. The cloud-based server is used to create a site configuration that is based at least in part on the identified information for each of the one or more building system components. The site configuration is then downloaded from the cloud-based server to the intelligent gateway such that the intelligent gateway is able to pass configuration information to one or more local controllers that control operation of the one or more building system components.

A secure system for control of at least one unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), includes a cloud service and a ground control station. The cloud service includes a cloud-based management service having processing circuitry configured to control communications between the cloud service, the ground control station and the at least one UAV, and control and monitor the at least one UAV by way of a corresponding at least one UAV client device. The UAV client device receives messages from the at least one UAV, sends commands to the at least one UAV, verifies the sender of each of the received messages, creates a new block for each received message and sent commands as new transactions, including performs a consensus algorithm for the new block, determines a consensus to validate the new block, and updates a blockchain with the validated new block.

In some implementations, a method performed by data processing apparatuses includes receiving configuration data for a preconfigured data connector, including connection parameters, time interval parameters, and data transformation parameters. The connection parameters are used to establish a connection to a bulk data source. In response to determining that an amount of time has elapsed that corresponds to the time interval parameters, bulk data is retrieved from the bulk data source for a given time interval, and the retrieved bulk data is transformed in accordance with the data transformation parameters. Based on transforming the retrieved bulk data, a data metric is generated that condenses the retrieved bulk data. A predetermined predicted metric value is received from a prediction data source for the data metric for a time interval that corresponds to the given time interval, and the predicted metric value is stored with the measured metric value.

Systems and methods discussed herein are directed to method for connecting a communication device to a data network via a network, e.g., a wireless communication network, and preventing the communication device from overriding a DNS selection by an operator of the network. The method includes receiving, from a communication device, e.g., an electronic device, a request to connect to a data network, e.g., the Internet, via a wireless communication network. A response message may be provided to the communication device, where the response message comprises (i) a configuration setting for the communication device to use domain name system (DNS) internet protocol (IP) addresses provided by an operator of the wireless communication network when accessing the data network and (ii) a data bit disabling the communication device from overriding the configuration setting. Connection of the communication device to the data network is then facilitated via the wireless communication network.

Systems and methods are described herein to automate managing of service layer operations comprised of multiple elementary operations and offloading the burden of performing such multi-step operations from a requesting entity to the service layer. A Request Abstraction Service (RAS) is described herein for the autonomous execution of such multi-step operations. Methods and apparatuses are also described herein for a service layer framework for integrating generic and functional user interfaces as services managed by the SL on behalf of requesting entities.
