Systems and methods of conducting a dialogue sequence between at least two user devices using one or more provider applications that facilitates a dialogue sequence between the at least two user devices are disclosed. A method includes sending to first and second user devices authorizations to enable the first and second user devices to conduct first and second portions of a dialogue sequence, respectively. The method includes receiving, from the first user device, second code that supplements first code associated with a provider application to produce first updated code, the first updated code adapting the provider application to be able to facilitate the dialogue sequence between the first and second user devices. The method includes determining that the second user device satisfies criteria associated with the dialogue sequence and sending, to the second user device, third code that facilitates the second portion of the dialogue sequence.

A method and control system for updating functionality of a vehicle are presented. The vehicle includes at least one vehicle internal system, at least one add-on system arranged in the vehicle after the vehicle is produced by a manufacturer, and at least one internal communication unit arranged for communication with at least one vehicle external communication unit. The method includes: receiving, using the at least one internal communication unit, information related to at least one functionality of the vehicle from the at least one vehicle external communication unit; and updating, based on the information related to at least one functionality of the vehicle, at least one functionality defined in an add-on interface, the add-on interface being arranged in the vehicle as an interface between the at least one vehicle internal system and the at least one add-on system, whereby updating of said at least one functionality is parameter-based.

A system for configuring a data center includes a fabric management server coupled to a management switch. A provisional Software Defined Networking (SDN) controller executing on the fabric management server can discover physical servers coupled to the management switch, receive network interface configuration information from the physical servers, and use the discovered network interface configuration information to determine a configuration for switches and servers coupled to an IP fabric. The configuration can be migrated to a full functionality SDN controller.

Systems and methods for the exchange of information between an enterprise client and a partner within an enterprise environment are provided. In this exchange of information, the client selects, via a user interface, a subset of client data, as well as one or more screen sets, to share with a partner. Once the partner has accepted, the system then sends an account creation request or account login request to the partner. Once the partner is authenticated in the system with an account, the system creates an information exchange session for the partner, and provides, on a display of the partner's device, a user interface that shows the subset of the client data and the screen sets. Access to the rest of the customer's enterprise environment is restricted.

A system and method are described for anonymous IoT device accounts. For example, one embodiment of a system comprises an IoT app to be executed on a mobile device of a user, the IoT app comprising a graphical user interface (GUI) to allow the user to capture one or more identification (ID) codes from one or more IoT devices, the mobile device to transmit the ID codes to an IoT service; a device management module on the IoT service to provision the IoT devices with the IoT service; an account management module on the IoT service to establish an anonymous user account and to associate the anonymous user account with the one or more IoT devices provisioned by the device management module; wherein upon the provisioned IoT devices being associated with the anonymous user account, the GUI of the IoT app is to provide the user with controllable access to the IoT devices prior to the user entering user identification information to the IoT service.

A system includes a campaign management service to detect a campaign initiation request indicating a number of computerized devices to be updated for a campaign and store data corresponding to the computerized devices to be updated. The campaign management service can generate a bloom filter data structure comprising hash values based on the data for each of the computerized devices to be updated and transmit the bloom filter data structure to a network edge. The system can include the network edge that can use the bloom filter data structure from the campaign management service to determine whether a computerized device is to obtain a device update from the campaign management service. The network edge can retrieve the device update and modify the computerized device by transmitting the device update to the computerized device, which then installs it.

A gateway performs silent authentication refreshes with an identity management platform in order to extend the expiration of a cookie provided to an endpoint that accesses network applications through the gateway.

A technical solution for significantly improving the scalability of the capability of an electronic information exchange platform is disclosed. Services provided by the platform may be described in a uniform way via service-specific provisioning descriptors. To provision services for a client system, a managed services provisioning system provides a service configuration interface through which a service associated with a tuple of a particular sender, receiver, and document type can be selected for further configuration. A service provisioning interface is dynamically generated for obtaining service-specific provisioning information from a user for generating a service-specific provisioning data instance that can be deployed to a backend system. At runtime, the backend system utilizes the service-specific provisioning data instance to provide the provisioned service for a client system. In this way, a variety of services can be efficiently provisioned for a diverse set of clients in a scalable, streamlined, and cost-effective manner.

Communication enabled circuit breakers are described. Methods associated with such communication enabled circuit breakers are also described. The communication enabled circuit breakers may include one or more current sensors. The one or more current sensors may be disposed in a clip. The clip may be coupled to a line side phase connection, and the clip may be shielded to attenuate signals.

Techniques for transferring virtual machines and resource management in a virtualized computing environment are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may include at least one memory, at least one processor, and logic for transferring a virtual machine (VM), at least a portion of the logic comprised in hardware coupled to the at least one memory and the at least one processor, the logic to generate a plurality of virtualized capability registers for a virtual device (VDEV) by virtualizing a plurality of device-specific capability registers of a physical device to be virtualized by the VM, the plurality of virtualized capability registers comprising a plurality of device-specific capabilities of the physical device, determine a version of the physical device to support via a virtual machine monitor (VMM), and expose a subset of the virtualized capability registers associated with the version to the VM. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
