    Abstract: The disclosure herein describes transmitting data from a satellite using a ground station configured to both transmit and receive, and a set of ground stations configured to receive data from a satellite. An orbit of the satellite is determined over a schedule period and a subset of ground stations configured to receive data and not transmit data to the satellite is identified based on the determined orbit of the satellite. A transmission schedule associated with the satellite is then generated. For each ground station of the subset, a time interval during which the satellite is within communication range is determined, an expected transmission rate is estimated, and the time interval and the expected transmission rate are included in the transmission schedule. The transmission schedule is provided to the satellite via another ground station configured to both transmit and receive, whereby the satellite is configured to transmit data to the subset of ground stations based on the transmission schedule.

    Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to enable multi-market optimization of renewable energies using data-driven models. To achieve this, a model retrieves a current state from a resource generation system and associated resource markets. The model can then compute a policy based on the state as well physical and technical constraints. The policy defines various actions that direct operation of the resource generation system such as resource production and dispatch to markets. Applying the policy to the resource generation results in a modified state which the model extracts along with a measure of optimality which quantifies the success of the policy. Based on these metrics, the model can generate an updated iteration of the policy defining a different set of actions. In this way, the model can gradually develop an optimal policy for controlling the resource generation system.

    Abstract: A computing system including a processor configured to receive training data including, for each of a plurality of training timesteps, training forecast states associated with respective training-phase agents included in a training supply chain graph. The processor may train a reinforcement learning simulation of the training supply chain graph using the training data via policy gradient reinforcement learning. At each training timestep, the training forecast states may be shared between simulations of the training-phase agents during training. The processor may receive runtime forecast states associated with respective runtime agents included in a runtime supply chain graph. For a runtime agent, at the trained reinforcement learning simulation, the processor may generate a respective runtime action output associated with a corresponding runtime forecast state of the runtime agent based at least in part on the runtime forecast states. The processor may output the runtime action output.

    Abstract: A computer system that includes a plurality of compute clusters that are located at different geographical locations. Each compute cluster is powered by a local energy source at a geographical location of that compute cluster. Each local energy source has a pattern of energy supply that is variable over time based on an environmental factor. The computer system further includes a server system that executes a global scheduler that distributes virtual machines that perform compute tasks for server-executed software programs to the plurality of compute clusters of the distributed compute platform. To distribute virtual machines for a target server-executed software program, the global scheduler is configured to select a subset of compute clusters that have different complementary patterns of energy supply such that the subset of compute clusters aggregately provide a target compute resource availability for virtual machines for the target server-executed software program.

    Abstract: Solutions for performing on-platform analytics for collected images include: enriching, on-board an orbital platform, collected images using a packaged analytics component; based at least on content of the collected images, selecting a set of the collected images to transmit to a ground station; and transmitting the selected set of the collected images to the ground station. Other solutions include: packaging an analytics component for on-platform execution by a platform in orbit; transmitting, from a ground station to the platform, at least one update selected from the list consisting of: an analytics algorithm update, a machine learning (ML) model, and ML training data; and executing the analytics component with the update. Other solutions include: performing intelligent compression on collected images, wherein the intelligent compression process determines data to transmit to a ground station, based at least on content of the collected images; and transmitting the data to the ground station.

    Abstract: Securing and optimizing communications for a cloud service provider includes collecting connection summary information at network interface devices associated with host computing devices for a group of resources allocated to a customer of the cloud computing environment. The connection summary information includes local address information, remote address information, and data information, each connection established via the network interface devices. At least one communication graph is generated for the group of resources using the connection summary information. The graph includes nodes that represent communication resources of the group of resources and edges extending between nodes that characterize communication between the nodes. At least one analytics process is performed on data from the graph to identify at least one of a micro-segmentation strategy, a communication pattern, and a flow prediction for the group of resources.
