A method for operating a network node (100) in a wireless communication network is provided. The method comprises transmitting at least one beamformed signal (20-27). Each one of the at least one beamformed signal (20-27) is indicative of a respective positioning information. The respective positioning information is indicative of a respective virtual reference point (40-47) which is offset from a position of a transmit point (50) of the wireless communication network used for transmitting the at least one beamformed signal (20-27). The beamformed signal (20-27) is suitable for enabling a positioning measurement of a wireless communication device (200).

Provided is a bootstrap method for registering a charging station (CS), which was in an offline state, to an electric vehicle charging station management system (CSMS) and operating same. The bootstrap method comprises the steps of: storing at least partial bootstrap information in a CS so as to configure bootstrap information; connecting the CS to a CSMS by setting a security channel between the CS and the CSMS for maintaining registration information about the CS; and registering the CS to the CSMS.

One method includes providing a plurality of events defined for a mobile application; providing a plurality of configuration options for the events, wherein the plurality of configuration options may include parameters; receiving an update to a first configuration option of the plurality of configuration options for a first event of the plurality of events in the list and a first parameter associated with the update; storing the updated first configuration option; transmitting to a first client device of a plurality of client devices running the mobile application, the updated first configuration option, wherein the updated first configuration option may cause the mobile application to monitor data of the mobile application for the occurrence of the first parameter; receiving from the first client device responsive to the first client device detecting the occurrence of the configuration option.

An apparatus for performing an over-the-air (OTA) update for a vehicle includes an estimated-time calculating device that calculates estimated time required for the OTA update of one or more controllers included in the vehicle, an update performing device that starts the OTA update based on the calculated estimated time, and a rollback performing device that performs an initial rollback on a failed OTA update once and to calculate a first value indicating whether a rollback is able to be performed on the failed OTA update in a case where the OTA update of at least one of the controllers fails when the OTA update is started.

Techniques are provided herein for secure display device communications. In one example, a video communications device provides, to a display device over a first connection, communication information that enables the display device to contact a server over a second connection. The video communications device further provides, to the display device over the first connection, a command configured to initiate an interaction with the server. The server obtains, from the display device over the second connection, a message initiating the interaction in response to the command based on the communication information.

Persistent storage may contain an input discovery payload that contains entries representing configuration items and relationships therebetween, wherein the configuration items contain attributes defining devices, components, or applications on a network. One or more processors may be configured to: provide, for display, a graphical user interface containing a representation of the input discovery payload and a button; provide the input discovery payload to an identification and reconciliation engine (IRE) software application; receive, from the IRE software application, an output discovery payload that includes a log generated from execution of the IRE software application on the input discovery payload, wherein the log indicates, for the configuration items and the relationships in the input discovery payload, how a configuration management database (CMDB) would be updated by the IRE software application; and provide, for display, a further graphical user interface containing a further representation of the output discovery payload.

Techniques are provided for a coordinated microservice system including a coordinator and multiple services, which interact with each other. Each of the services can have multiple execution instances, which run independently of each other. In operation, the current status of each instance is evaluated against one or more rules to determine whether the current status changes the topography of the services and updating the topography based on the changes. An execution plan is created for executing a command based on one or more predefined rules and the updated topography, where the execution plan includes one or more steps for executing the command on each instance of the service. The execution plan is executed on each instance of the service in accordance with the one or more predefined rules.

In one embodiment, a system for managing a virtualization environment includes a set of host machines, each of which includes a hypervisor, virtual machines, and a virtual machine controller, and a data migration system configured to identify one or more existing storage items stored at one or more existing File Server Virtual Machines (FSVMs) of an existing virtualized file server (VFS). For each of the existing storage items, the data migration system is configured to identify a new FSVMs of a new VFS based on the existing FSVM, send a representation of the storage item from the existing FSVM to the new FSVM, such that representations of storage items are sent between different pairs of FSVMs in parallel, and store a new storage item at the new FSVM, such that the new storage item is based on the representation of the existing storage item received by the new FSVM.

Provided is an optical transceiver including: a controller configured to output firmware update data for updating firmware of another optical transceiver connected to the optical transceiver through an optical cable; and a transmitter configured to generate an optical signal by superposing input payload data and the firmware update data, and to transmit the optical signal to the other optical transceiver. According to embodiments, the firmware of a remote optical transceiver at a remote location is automatically updated without affecting payload data, which is information to be transmitted.

A user device has a plurality of modules which support an application such as gaming application. The user device has a stream processing module which is able to stream process events which are generated, for example when the application is run. The events which are generated by the modules are passed to an event module which distributes the events to other of the modules.
