A method may include receiving a request to transfer a personal virtual assistant to a computing device, the personal virtual assistant including response preferences of a user; accessing a virtual assistant transfer protocol associated with the user; the virtual assistant transfer protocol including a sensitivity preference; applying the sensitivity preference to data associated with the personal virtual assistant to generate a virtual assistant transfer package; and transmitting the virtual assistant transfer package to the computing device.

This disclosure relates to method and system for generating and rendering a customized dashboard. The method includes initiating a schema-less dashboard canvas through a frontend application that invokes a server-less library. The method further includes integrating a set of widgets selected by a user, from the plurality of native widgets and from the plurality of third-party widgets, with the schema-less dashboard canvas using the server-less library. The method further includes generating metadata for each of the set of widgets based on a corresponding configuration performed by the user. The method further includes associating the metadata with a user account of the user for subsequent rendering of the customized dashboard for the user.

An information processing system provides combined information in which a description file defining an operation procedure and a reproduction application configured to reproduce the description file are combined, as a combined application to be executed by an image processing apparatus. The information processing system includes one or more control circuits each having a processor and a memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to function as an acquisition unit, an output unit, a reception unit, and a generation unit. The acquisition unit is configured to acquire definition information from the reproduction application. The output unit is configured to output screen information to a display based on the definition information. The reception unit is configured to receive an edit instruction corresponding to the screen information. The generation unit is configured to generate the description file corresponding to the reproduction application, based on the edit instruction.

A mapping API provides a digital map via a user interface of a computing device. When invoked by a software application, the mapping API is configured to receive an identifier of a user operating the software application, provide a first interactive digital map including a representation of a certain geographic area for display by the software application, where the first interactive digital map is personalizable via the software application, receive personalization content from the user via the software application, and cause a second digital map including a representation of the geographic area, when provided to the same user, to be modified in view of the personalization content, where the first digital map and the second digital map are created independently.

A system and method for standardizing user interface elements are presented. A first application is identified having a higher use metric than a second application, the first application including one or more user interface elements that have one or more respective parameters. The second application has one or more user interface elements that are similar to the user interface elements of the first application and has one or more respective parameters that are different than the respective parameters of the user interface elements of the first application. A determination of similarity is made between the user interface elements applications based upon at least one predetermined criterion. Based on the determination, one or more parameters of the user interface elements of the second application are modified to match one or more parameters of the first application.

Systems and methods are provided herein for scheduling a season recording. A series is provided to a user device, the series having a plurality of sequential seasons, and each season having a plurality of episodes. A request for recording the series is received from the user. In response, a last episode of the series watched by the user is identified. A relevant season of the plurality of seasons is then determined, such that the relevant season precedes another season of the plurality of seasons and includes the last episode watched by the user. Then, episodes of the relevant season that follow the last episode watched by the user are scheduled for recording, such that episodes of a season that precedes the relevant season are not scheduled for recording.

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for tool registry for automating DevOps toolchains. Submission of a DevOps tool, authentication information, and tool configuration data is received from a user. Subsequently, the DevOps tool is selected for inclusion in a DevOps job. The DevOps tool including the authentication information and tool configuration data is automatically accessed from the tool registry. The DevOps tool is configured in accordance with the accessed authentication information and accessed tool configuration data as part of the DevOps job and for interaction with the one or more other DevOps tools. The DevOps job is deployed.

Systems and methods are disclosed for generating for display digital content (e.g., an advertisement, a feed item, or some other information) together with digital components (e.g., branding data for the application or the publisher of the application). When the server receives, from a user device, a digital content request, the server can determine whether the digital content request was transmitted in response to an application state being changed to an active focus. Based on determining that the digital content request is being sent in response to an application state being changed to an active focus, the server generates a response that includes digital content and one or more digital components (e.g., branding data), and transmits that response to the user device. When the user device receives the response, the user device generates for display the digital components and the digital content.

Dynamic storage instance sizing for application deployments, including: deploying, based on a profile, an instance of a database application, wherein the profile defines one or more characteristics for the instance of the database application; monitoring one or more usage metrics for the instance of the database application; and updating, in the profile, the one or more characteristics based on the usage metrics.

A processing device is provided which comprises memory and a processor, in communication with the memory. The processor is configured to acquire information indicating a sensory perception of a user, determine settings for one or more parameters used to control operation of the device based on the information indicating the sensory perception of the user and control the operation of the device by tuning the one or more parameters according to the determined settings.
