Abstract: Described is a technology by which a user is able to determine the content of a storage device, including when the storage device is non-operational. A user may use a device and/or program to provide a wirelessly-read identifier to query a repository that maintains cataloged data for the user's storage device. The query to the repository returns the cataloged data for that storage device in response, which is output to the user and the user knows the storage device's contents. Alternatively, the user may obtain a list of storage devices from the repository, and select one to view its cataloged data. When the storage device is operational, the persistent repository is updated with any changes to keep the cataloged data synchronized with the stored content.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed for dynamic keystone correction. A measurement module measures distances from a projector to each of at least three projected points of a first projected image projected on a first surface with projection angles between each projected point. The at least three projected points are endpoints for at least two vectors with a target ratio of vector lengths. An adjustment module calculates an actual ratio of actual vector lengths of the at least two vectors. The adjustment module further adjusts a first aspect ratio of first projected image until the actual ratio is equivalent to the target ratio.

Abstract: The collaborative sharing of resources on demand based on proximity, within a group or network of computers. Broadly contemplated herein the “tiling” of a collection of logically adjacent individual graphical desktops in a virtual desktop. In such a setting, the action of dragging a window or icon off of one desktop and onto another would effectively transfer user interactability, and/or perceived ownership of the object, to the desktop where the window or icon graphically “lands”.

Abstract translation: 基于邻近度，在计算机的组或网络内的按需资源的协同共享。 在这里广泛地考虑在虚拟桌面中平铺逻辑上相邻的单独图形桌面的集合。 在这样的设置中，将窗口或图标从一个桌面拖动到另一个桌面上的动作将有效地将用户的交互性和/或所感知的对象的所有权转移到窗口或图标图形着陆的桌面上。

Abstract: The invention broadly contemplates a computing system that offers high-speed recovery. The system is configured to offer such a high-speed solution via an instant roll back scheme. The system utilizes a virtualization to handle the system state and provide a rescue and recovery like solution without requiring a full system reboot. The system is configured to utilize virtualization, e.g. through the use of a hypervisor to track the fundamental system components. This enables the system to very quickly back the system up on a rolling basis via tracking atomic changes and offering the instant rollback at essentially any point following an atomic change, should common system difficulties be encountered.

Abstract: A method for preventing malicious software from execution within a computer system is disclosed. A permutation is performed on a subset of instructions within an application program to yield a permuted sequence of instructions before any actual execution of the application program on the computer system. A permutation sequence number of the permuted sequence of instructions is stored in a permuted instruction pointer table. The permuted sequence of instructions is executed in an execution module that is capable of translating the permuted sequence of instructions to an actual machine code of a processor within the computer system according to the permutation sequence number of the permuted sequence of instructions stored in the permuted instruction pointer table.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer readable storage medium are disclosed to recover from lost resources in a distributed server environment. A status monitor module receives, at a first computer, periodic status messages from a peer computer. Each periodic status message indicates that the peer computer is providing a service for which the first computer serves as a backup service provider. A failure detection module determines, based on the periodic status messages, that the peer computer has stopped providing the service. An advancement module provides the service, at the first computer, in response to determining that the peer computer has stopped providing the service.
