Abstract: Stream alterations under limited bandwidth conditions is provided. A router on a local network continuously monitors incoming network traffic from a source external to the local network to detect that a bandwidth of the incoming network traffic exceeds a first threshold. The router sends a request to a source of the incoming network traffic to temporarily redirect the incoming network traffic to an optimization analyzer. Analysis is performed on the incoming streams to identify one or more streams for alteration. In response to identifying one or more of the incoming streams for alteration, for each identified incoming stream, continuously altering the identified incoming stream, and re-directing the altered stream to the local device.

Abstract: Technical solutions are described for determining a route for multiple users traveling to a common destination. An example method includes determining, by a multiuser route generator, a multiuser route for a plurality of users traveling to the common destination, the multiuser route comprising a waypoint, the waypoint being a location to which each of the plurality of users travel independently, and travel to the common destination jointly thereafter. Determining the multiuser route includes receiving departure locations of the users, determining the waypoint, and calculating a first total of travel parameters associated with the users traveling to the waypoint independently and jointly thereafter that is lesser than a second total of travel parameters associated with the users traveling to the common destination independently. The method further includes sending the multiuser route to navigation devices of the respective users, the navigation devices navigating the respective users along the multiuser route.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems and computer-implemented methods are disclosed for equipment use tracking and availability prediction. A monitor module may electronically monitor use of equipment by a plurality of users at one or more locations, by obtaining information about equipment use from sensing equipment that identifies users and times of use for the equipment. A profile module may store a plurality of user profiles based on the information about equipment use. User profiles may include information about the users indicating equipment used and time of use. A prediction module may send a recommendation indicating predicted equipment availability to a user based on current information about equipment use and on the user profiles.

Abstract: Anonymizing product search results. Keywords related to a product are received. For each keyword, an associated list of terms, which lists the keyword and one or more additional terms that are closely related to the keyword, is generated. A combination list that includes combinations of terms selected from the associated lists of terms, where each combination includes two or more terms and at least one combination includes terms from different associated lists of terms, is created. A search, based on the combinations of terms in the combination list, is performed and online content is received. Based on product information in the online content, a list of products is generated. An anonymized list of products is generated from the list of products by masking product brand names of the products in the list of products. The anonymized list of products is presented on a user interface.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes initializing a navigation application on a device, determining a current location of the device, and receiving a destination. The method also includes determining whether a known geographical feature is located on a travel path to the destination. The known geographical feature may be derived from a user profile. The method, in response to determining that a known geographical feature is not located on the travel path to the destination, includes outputting graphical and audio directions to the destination. In response to determining that a known geographical feature is located on the travel path to the destination, a sub-method includes determining whether the device is currently in a known area and outputting graphical and audio directions to the known geographical feature in response to determining that the device is not currently in the known area.

Abstract: Aspects include obtaining, by a sending system, a measured receive optical power level of an optical signal that was received at a receiving system coupled to the sending system via an optical network. The optical signal was sent via an optical transmitter of the sending system to an optical receiver of the receiving system. An optimal receive optical power level of the optical receiver of the receiving system is determined by the sending system. The sending system adjusts an output optical power level of the optical transmitter in response to determining that the measured receive optical power level is not within a threshold of the optimal receive optical power level. The adjusting is performed without decoupling the sending system from the receiving system.

Abstract: A method of using an adjustable attenuation fiber optic wrap plug (“AAFOWP”) includes receiving initial data into a wireless module of the AAFOWP, wherein the initial data corresponds to an initial desired attenuation level that the first AAFOWP is to achieve. The method also includes moving, in response to receiving the initial data, an arm by an actuator to change a bend radius of an optical fiber wrap in the AAFOWP, thus adjusting an attenuation through the AAFOWP to the initial desired attenuation level.
