    摘要: Hybrid device for viewing media content: a media player; a non-transitory storage medium; and a processer to perform functions: exception detection and handling to monitor a rate of media streaming and to identify when viewing of the media content is or predicted to be interrupted; a peer interaction manager to broadcast a request to peers for media segments of the media content when viewing of the media content is or predicted to be interrupted; a security manager to send a request to a content distribution network to start streaming of the media content, to receive a session key from the content distribution network, and to present the session key to the peers; a peer media manager to receive the media segments from the peers and cache the media segments; and a media segment manager to stitch the media segments from different peers into a single continuous media file.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for implementing a charging process is provided. The method includes determining that a charging surface of a mobile device is currently located on a charging surface of a structure including a charging apparatus. The charging surface of the mobile device includes charge receiving contacts electrically connected to a battery and a processor. The charging surface of the structure includes charging contacts electrically connected to a charging circuit and in communication with a controller. The processor determines that at least two contacts of the charge receiving contacts are in electro/mechanical contact with at least two contacts of the charging contacts and in response, a negotiation process with the controller with respect to selecting at least one associated charging voltage and polarity for charging the battery is executed resulting in a charging process between the charging circuit and the battery being enabled.

    摘要: A method and system for using multi-level passwords is provided. The method includes receiving a request for access to a first level of access associated with secure components associated with a device of a user. In response, a portion of a passcode is received. The portion of the passcode does not include an entire portion. The portion of the passcode is compared to security group policy it is determined that the portion of the passcode meets requirements the security group policy. Access is enabled to a group of components of secure components based on the security requirements. The group of components is associated with the first level of security access.

    摘要: A method and system for generating a document is provided. The method includes generating a metadocument configured to retain multiple components of different data types. A component editor directory of a component editor server is queried and a list of component editors compatible with metadocument is retrieved. A first component editor of the list of component editors is selected from a remote location. The first component editor is associated with a first defined data type. A first document component comprising the first defined data type is generated within the metadocument resulting in a single document comprising the first document component. A user interface is updated with the single document comprising the first document component.

    摘要: A system, method and program product for delivering haptic notifications to a user. A system is disclosed having: a plurality of wearable devices adapted to be worn on different parts of a user, wherein each wearable device is adapted to output a configurable haptic notification to the user; a host device that coordinates with at least two wearable devices to output a scheme of haptic notifications based on an associated rule in response to a detected event; and a learning system that analyzes feedback from the user to determine an efficacy of the scheme and causes the associated rule to be altered in response to the scheme being deemed ineffective.
