Abstract: The current disclosure is directed towards efficiently generating random sequences on a large-scale peer-to-peer network. In one example, the disclosure provides for selecting a first node based on a block generation order, where the first node is selected to generate a current block, adding a first signature share of the first node to the current block, adding at least a second signature share from a previously selected node to the current block, generating a random sequence based on the first signature share and the second signature share, adding the random sequence to the current block, and publishing the current block to a blockchain maintained by a node pool. In this way, a random sequence may be generated on-chain, with linear messaging complexity, without relying on a single trusted party/apparatus, which may thereby decrease a probability of any single party controlling the random sequence produced.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to providing a mechanism for communication between point of sale devices. Using network technology and novel processes, the present systems and methods can share transaction records among multiple devices without the presence of a physical server. For example, in certain embodiments, the present systems and methods leverage virtual server technology to implement local area networks of point of sale devices with zero configuration.

Abstract: A method includes a joining node, not yet joined to a network, listening to a second node that is joined to the network. The joining node may determine a join time at which to request to join the network. The joining node may receive from the second node a beacon indicating time synchronization of the network and further including a first congestion variable indicating a level of congestion of the network. The joining node may adjust the join time based on the first congestion variable in the beacon. At the join time, the joining node may transmit an association request to join the network.

Abstract: An improved decentralized, blockchain-driven network for artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled skills exchange between Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPAs) in a network is disclosed that is configured to perform computational tasks or services (also referred to herein as “skills”) in an optimally-efficient fashion. In some embodiments, this may comprise a first IPA paying an agreed cost to a second IPA to perform a particular skill in a more optimally-efficient fashion. In some embodiments, a skills registry is published, comprising benchmark analyses and costs for the skills offered by the various nodes on the skills exchange network. In other embodiments, a transaction ledger is maintained that provides a record of all transactions performed across the network in a tamper-proof and auditable fashion, e.g., via the use of blockchain technology. Over time, the AI-enabled nodes in the system may learn to scale, replicate, and transact with each other in an optimized—and fully autonomous—fashion.

Abstract: A replacement node replaces a failed node and a baseboard management controller (BMC) for the replacement node generates a nonce code that is accessible to an authenticated user. An edge management node receives the nonce code from the user and sends a maintenance token to a BMC of a peer node in an edge cluster, wherein the peer nodes BMCs within the cluster are in a BMC federation that included the failed node BMC and have access to a BMC configuration for the failed node. The management node sends the token and the nonce code to the replacement node BMC for authentication of the token. The peer node BMC sends the token received from the management node to the replacement node BMC for authentication of the peer node BMC. The authenticated peer node BMC may then deploy the BMC configuration to the replacement node BMC.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus provides a sharing service of enabling information to be shared by one or more terminal apparatuses, the information processing apparatus being capable of communicating with the one or more terminal apparatuses, and the one or more terminal apparatuses being associated with a group; receives first identification information from each of the one or more terminal apparatuses; and associates the first identification information with the sharing service. When having associated the first identification information with the sharing service, the information processing apparatus associates, with the group, the one or more terminal apparatuses having received the first identification information from outside and having transmitted the first identification information; and provides the sharing service of enabling information to be shared by the one or more terminal apparatuses that are associated with the group.

Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for identity-based exposure detection in peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms. The present invention is configured to receive, from a computing device of a P2P platform, an indication that a user has initiated a P2P resource transfer request to a first entity; retrieve, from a computing device of the P2P platform, resource transfer information of the first entity based on at least the P2P resource transfer request; initiate a database query on a P2P knowledge repository using the resource transfer information of the first entity; determine a match between the resource transfer information of the first entity and at least one entity record in the P2P knowledge repository based on at least initiating the database query; and transmit a notification to the computing device of the P2P platform indicating that the first entity is known to be associated with misappropriate activity.

Abstract: A traffic planning platform may receive information related to a traffic flow including a traffic bandwidth to transport through a network with various network devices interconnected by links. The traffic planning platform may generate a traffic plan by assigning the traffic flow to a set of the links that includes network resources connecting a source of the traffic flow to a destination of the traffic flow. The traffic planning platform may render a visualization of the traffic plan, wherein the visualization includes a user interface (e.g., a diagram, an animation, and/or the like) in which geometric shapes that represent the source, the peer link, and the destination are connected by bands that represent the tunnel and the external route and further in which the geometric shapes and the bands each have a first visual property and a second visual property based on the traffic bandwidth of the traffic flow.

Abstract: A processor may record one or more transaction proposals regardless of validity of the one or more transaction proposals. The processor may separate a transaction validation into a series of steps. The processor may validate, asynchronously, one or more transactions respectively associated with each of the one or more transaction proposals based on the transaction validation.
