Abstract:
The application discloses a resource assignment system including recovery notification procedures or methods to notify an application or node of potentially lost resources. The recovery notification procedures or calls are invoked in response to a recovery notification registration function. In response to recovery notification registration, a recovery notification or call is generated to report lost resources.
Abstract:
An exemplary system for managing an applications and data space includes a strategy layer configured to receive a query statement and to formulate one or more custom queries based on the query statement and a query scheduler layer configured to schedule issuance of the one or more custom queries to one or more query response modules associated with the applications and data space. Other methods, devices and systems are also disclosed.
Abstract:
Technologies, systems, and methods for ordered message delivery that avoid message races or crisscrosses between communicating nodes. For example, if Node A sends message 3 towards Node B and, shortly thereafter, Node B sends message X to Node A, Node A would like to know whether or not message X reflects Node B's state after receiving message 3. If Node B received message 3 prior to sending message X, then proper state may be maintained between the nodes. But if messages 3 and X crisscrossed, or if message 3 was never properly received by Node B, then the state between the nodes may be corrupt. Technologies, systems, and methods are provided to avoid such corruption.
Abstract:
Online ad hosting (e.g., hosting ads from one domain on a webpage from a different domain) is accomplished using an insulator cross-domain frame (e.g., an inline frame (IFrame)), into which a third party may load content, source code to detect events associated with the third party content (e.g., detecting if ad content wishes to expand), and a communicator same-domain IFrame for sending requests to the host webpage associated with detected events. That is, a cross-domain IFrame may be created in a host webpage, which can isolate an ad from the host webpage. A communicator frame may be utilized to communicate text messages between the contents of the cross-domain frame and the host webpage. Further, an API can be used to apply parameters, restrictions and allowable events to the third party content in the insulator IFrame.
Abstract:
Online ad hosting (e.g., hosting ads from one domain on a webpage from a different domain) is accomplished using a cross-domain frame (e.g., an inline frame (IFrame)), a secure inter-frame communications channel, and a source code interface (e.g., a set of application program interfaces (APIs)). That is, a cross-domain IFrame may be created in a host webpage, which can isolate an ad from the host webpage. An inter-frame communications channel may be utilized to communicate between the contents of the cross-domain frame and the host webpage. Further, a source code interface may be used to communicate a host's preferences for an ad's parameters and restrictions.
Abstract:
The application discloses a resource assignment system including recovery notification procedures or methods to notify an application or node of potentially lost resources. The recovery notification procedures or calls are invoked in response to a recovery notification registration function. In response to recovery notification registration, a recovery notification or call is generated to report lost resources.
Abstract:
The application discloses a generic partitioning manager for partitioning resources across one or more owner nodes. In illustrated embodiments described, the partitioning manager interfaces with the one or more owner nodes through an owner library. A lookup node or application interfaces with the partitioning manager through the lookup library to lookup address or locations of the partitioned resources. In illustrated embodiments, resources are partitioned via the partitioning manager in response to lease request messages from an owner library. In illustrated embodiments, the lease grant message includes a complete list of the leases for the owner node.
Abstract:
A user interface may be utilized to allow a user to control display properties of online ad content on a hosting webpage (e.g., hosting ads from one domain on a webpage from a different domain). This may be accomplished by creating a cross-domain frame in the hosting webpage, which can contain the ad content. An instantiation of a user interface may be created on the hosting webpage that has an ability to control display properties of the cross-domain frame, thereby controlling display properties of the ad content in the cross-domain frame. Further, a task manager may be utilized as part of the user interface to facilitate a host of the hosting webpage to manage ad content.
Abstract:
The claimed subject matter provides systems and/or methods that combat identity follow-on attacks. The system can include components for receiving a plurality of security configuration changes, selecting which of the changes included in the plurality of security changes to approve or disapprove, and based on which of the changes are approved or disapproved by an administrator, generating a further plurality of security configuration changes that the administrator can once again approve or disapprove until the administrator is satisfied with the security configuration changes.
Abstract:
An exemplary method for load balancing includes accessing a range of values for IP addresses associated with a virtual IP address associated with a domain name; selecting, using a local statistical algorithm, a value in the range; and, based at least in part on the selected value, connecting to a remote resource at one of the IP addresses. In such a method, a client can perform local load balancing when connecting to one of many fungible resources “behind” a virtual IP address. With many such clients, the task of load balancing is distributed as opposed to being centralized at a server farm or cluster. Other methods, devices and systems are also disclosed.
