A network function virtualization service includes an action implementation layer and an action decisions layer. On a flow of network traffic received at the service, the action implementation layer performs a packet processing action determined at the action decisions layer.

Inter-cell interference can be reduced by re-assigning uplink scheduling responsibilities for a user equipment (UE) from a controller associated with a serving access point (AP) to a controller associated with a neighboring AP, as the controller associated with the neighboring AP may have better access to channel information corresponding to interference experienced by the neighboring AP as a result of uplink transmissions from the UE. After the re-assignment, the controller associated with the neighboring AP may independently schedule an uplink transmission parameter (e.g., a transmit power level, a modulation coding scheme level and/or a precoder) of the UE in a manner that mitigates inter-cell-interference in the neighboring cell.

A data migration system 10 includes: a management server 20 configured to obtain transaction information from a distributed ledger at a data migration source, and transmit a migration transaction to a distributed ledger node at a data migration destination, the migration transaction specifying a transaction ID indicated by the transaction information obtained; and the distributed ledger node 100 configured to receive the migration transaction, obtain transaction information in the distributed ledger at the data migration source based on the transaction ID, extract data on a predetermined processing result from the transaction information obtained, execute a transaction using the extracted data as an argument, and transmit a result of the executed transaction to a transaction distribution node 300 at the data migration destination.

Provided herein are systems and methods for providing a secure and efficient way to manage a data exchange's availability and manage the visibility of data listings of the data exchange. For example, the method may comprise specifying, by an exchange admin of the data exchange, a set of regions where the data exchange is available, each of the set of regions comprising one or more remote deployments. The method may further comprise specifying by a data provider, one or more of the set of regions where a data listing owned by the data provider is visible. Upon receiving a request to access the data listing from a remote deployment of the one or more regions, the data provider may determine whether to reject or fulfill the request. In response to determining that the request should be fulfilled, replicating data of the data listing to the remote deployment.

A service providing system includes a mobile apparatus that moves to a user in response to receiving an instruction to provide a service from the user and provides the service to the user after obtaining approval; and a client apparatus that manages a schedule input by the user, and, in response to receiving the instruction, transmits an instruction which is derived from the received instruction, the received instruction including information of at least one of a designated date and time and a designated location at which the service is to be provided. The client apparatus includes a display that displays a schedule in which a service providing schedule is added to the schedule input by the user according to a schedule display instruction, and the mobile apparatus moves to a scheduled location at a scheduled date and time and provides the service.

Disclosed herein is a method of synchronizing data among multiple EMS centers. The method may include updating user setting data by a client in a main center; transmitting the user setting data from the main center to a secondary center; and synchronizing the user setting data between the main center and the secondary center.

A data storage system uses the free space that is not yet filled with data after the deployment of the data store. The free space is used to store additional ‘opportunistic’ protection information for stored data, possibly above and beyond the specified protection level. As the system fills up, the additional protection information is deleted to make room for more data and specified protection information.

A method includes receiving media data corresponding to a media content item. The method further includes analyzing the media data to determine characteristics of the media content item based on first visual information contained in the media content item. The method further includes analyzing the characteristics of the media content item based on a media popularity model to generate a prediction of whether the media content item is likely to exceed a popularity threshold within a particular period of time. The method further includes determining, at the computing device, a network location at which to store the media content item based on the prediction.

A method, computer program and apparatus are disclosed that include accessing client data records, such as, medical records. The method may include receiving a data file at a server sent from at least one client and including client requirements. The method may also include storing the received data file locally at the server, executing an application that scans the server to determine if any new data files have been received. The method may also include storing the copied data file in a data folder stored in a file cluster, updating a table stored in a database to indicate that a new file has been stored, deleting the locally stored file from the server, and moving files specified by the client requirements from an export folder of the file cluster to the server so that the at least one client may access the exported files.

A method for performing initial registration is provided. The method includes receiving a server timeout message, the server timeout message including at least a field set to a value equal to a value received during a first registration. The method further includes initiating restoration procedures by performing an initial registration.
