Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for role-based failure response training for distributed systems are disclosed. A failure response training system determines a failure mode associated with an architecture for a distributed system comprising a plurality of components. The training system generates a scenario based at least in part on the failure mode. The scenario comprises an initial state of the distributed system which is associated with one or more metrics indicative of a failure. The training system provides, to a plurality of users, data describing the initial state. The training system solicits user input representing modification of a configuration of the components. The training system determines a modified state of the distributed system based at least in part on the input. The performance of the distributed system in the modified state is indicated by one or more modified metrics differing from the one or more initial metrics.

An example method for mapping data can include: generating a user interface configured to enable a user to create a data element of a mapping specification, wherein the mapping specification includes a spreadsheet having a plurality of data fields; allowing for dragging of the data element onto the user interface and multi-selection of the data element with other data elements; allowing for dropping of the data element into a desired location of the user interface and the multi-selection of the data element; storing the data element in a temporary schema independent from a database schema of the data warehouse; and enabling the user to associate the data element with one or more physical data elements in the database schema.

In the present disclosure, a collaborative workspace fosters content creation between users in a synchronous and/or asynchronous manner by enabling automatic generation and management of collaborative media objects that automatically combine content from a plurality of users into a single media object. This is extremely beneficial in technical scenarios where users are creating projects, assignments, presentations, etc., by removing the need for users to manually stitch together and combine content to create a final product. For example, the collaborative workspace is adapted for a video discussion application/service, where users create one or more video clips (e.g., video feeds, live video feeds) in response to a posted topic. In at least one instance, a collaborative workspace for a video discussion application/service may be integrated to display within another type of application/service. However, the present disclosure is extensible to work with any type of application/service and any content type.

Example embodiments may relate to a system, method, apparatus, and computer readable media configured for monitoring a user performing various athletic movements and generating performance characteristics based on the data corresponding to such athletic movements. Users may also be encouraged to participate in athletic challenges or competitions against other users or groups of users. In addition, athletic movement data for multiple persons can be collected at a central location, and subsequently displayed to a user at a desired remote location, so that the user can compare his or her athletic activities to others.

A method implemented by a transmission device to communicate with multiple reception devices that respectively share a drawing area with the transmission device is provided. The transmission device transmits to the multiple reception devices vector-data ink data representative of traces of input operation detected by an input sensor of the transmission device. The method includes: (a) an ink data generation step of generating fragmented data of a stroke object, wherein the stroke object contains multiple point objects to represent a trace formed by a pointer, the fragmented data being generated per defined unit T, and generating a drawing style object; (b) a message formation step of generating messages including the drawing style object and the fragmented data; and (c) a transmission step of transmitting the messages.

The present invention relates to a robot service system and a robot apparatus using a social network service, and comprises: (a) a step in which a terminal device is connected to a robot apparatus by executing a social network service program, and displays a service screen on which an image captured by the robot apparatus is displayed; (b) a step in which the terminal device transmits a robot control command inputted to the service screen to the robot apparatus; (c) a step in which the robot apparatus performs an operation according to the robot control command and transmits operation performance data to the terminal device; and (d) a step in which the terminal device displays the operation performance data transmitted from the robot apparatus on the service screen.

The disclosed apparatus, systems, and methods relate to a location query mechanism that can efficiently determine whether a target entity is located within a region of interest (ROI). At a high level, the location query mechanism can be configured to represent a ROI using one or more polygons. The location query mechanism can, in turn, divide (e.g., tessellate) the one or more polygons into sub-polygons. Subsequently, the location query mechanism can use the sub-polygons to build an index system that can efficiently determine whether a particular location is within any of the sub-polygons. Therefore, when a computing device queries whether a particular location is within the region of interest, the location query mechanism can use the index system to determine whether the particular location is within any of the sub-polygons.

Systems and methods for recording a meeting using a retroactive record feature. The present technology provides for improved systems and methods for providing a recording of a virtual meeting, where a selection to initiate the recording from the beginning or an earlier time in the meeting from a current time may be received after the virtual meeting has started. The system may process received meeting content streams to generate a plurality of data segments that may collectively form a meeting recording. Each data segment, for example, may include meeting content associated with a particular user/attendee and associated with a timestamp and/or time duration. In some examples, the plurality of data segments may be stored on a blockchain, which may provide an immutable meeting record that may be concatenated together and made available for playback based on a selection to record the meeting and consent given by the users/attendees.

Techniques are disclosed for collaborative map construction using multiple vehicles. Such a system may include a ground vehicle including a first computing device and a first scanning sensor, and an aerial vehicle including a second computing device and a second scanning sensor. The ground vehicle can obtain a first real-time map based on first scanning data using the first scanning sensor, and transmit a first real-time map and position information to the aerial vehicle. The aerial vehicle can receive the first real-time map and the position information from the first computing device, obtain a second real-time map based on second scanning data collected using the second scanning sensor, and obtain a third real-time map based on the first real-time map and the second real-time map.
