    Abstract: A control device that performs resource allocation to a network including a transmission device, one or more transfer devices, and a reception device as nodes, the control device including a schedule database unit that holds schedules of time slots not allocated to specific communication, the schedules being set in advance for respective nodes of the network, and a schedule processing unit that, in a case where a communication request is received, selects a time slot that satisfies a transmission request amount of the transmission device on the basis of remaining transmittable amounts of respective time slots in the schedules and notifies the transmission device of a selected time slot.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for establishing a plurality of group communication channels for a plurality of sub-sets of a plurality of devices. A situation system identifies a geographical area affected by a situation, and a plurality of devices associated with a plurality of users in the identified geographical area. The situation system causes the plurality of devices to enter a situation mode. The situation system obtains protected data from each of the plurality of devices. The situation system generates a data structure that identifies connections between users of the plurality of users and available modes of communication for each connection. The situation system establishes a plurality of group communication channels for a plurality of sub-sets of the plurality of devices.

    Abstract: An online software platform (OSP) classifies challenges to digital rules into buckets according to respective challenged digital rules that were applied to produce respective challenged resources. The OSP computes respective statistics for the buckets. Each bucket may have a corresponding statistic associated with the bucket based on a current total number of challenges that have been classified into that bucket. The OSP ranks the buckets according to the respective statistics of the buckets. The OSP may correct, based on the ranking of the buckets, the respective challenged stored digital rule of the selected bucket without yet correcting the respective challenged digital rule of at least one of the other buckets. This correction is stored and included in digital rules to be used to produce resources going forward.

    Abstract: A scalable multi-cluster resource sharing facility. A global witness process runs on a first computing platform that communicates over one or more networks to any number of nodes situated over two or more clusters. The global witness process listens on the network for occurrences of leadership and/or resource requests from nodes of different clusters. The global witness processes a request by retrieving a resource request and a respective last known state value, comparing the last known state value to a global stored state value, then storing a new state value when the respective last known state value is equal to the stored state value. Any number of contemporaneous requests can be processed by the global witness process, however only one request can be granted. The other requestors each receive a rejection of their resource request when their proffered last known state value is not equal to the stored state value.
