Provided are techniques for providing security for edge computing using location data. A command base location of an entity, an application identifier of the entity, and an expire date for the application identifier are determined. A message generated from the command base location and the application identifier is sent to a location authority. A signed command base location is received based on the command base location being within a jurisdiction of the location authority and a current date being before the expire date. A common key for the command base location is generated using the application identifier and the signed command base location. A public key is generated using the common key. A message is encrypted using the public key to create a cryptographic message. The cryptographic message is sent.

Providing security for edge computing using location data

Aspects of the invention include receiving an identity of a primary web-based material from a user, wherein the primary web-based material describes a topic. Subparts of the primary web-based material are indexed. Supplemental web-based materials accessed by a plurality of reference users are retrieved, wherein the supplemental web-based materials relate to the subparts. A sequence of supplemental web-based materials is generated for the user to follow to gain an understanding of the topic.

Efficiently manage and share resources during e-learning

Computer-implemented methods, systems and computer program products leveraging collection and analysis of anonymized biological data, location data, individual IDs and time data from groups of individuals within a surrounding environment. The anonymized data can be combined with sources of map data and available historical data to help provide context about the surrounding environment of the users and stored for analysis and decision-making that physically impacts and alters the surrounding environment. At periodic or sporadic intervals, the collected data is extracted and analyzed. Based on the analysis of the anonymized data, physical changes are dynamically implemented within the physical environment, including remotely altering the physical environment by instructing changes to surrounding environment over a computer network such as modifying one or more settings of IoT devices positioned within the surrounding environment analyzed.

Dynamic environmental control

A navigation request is detected. The navigation request includes a destination for an autonomous vehicle from a starting location. A route is identified from the starting location to destination based on the navigation request. A regulator lookup is performed related to the route based on the navigation request. The regulator lookup is related to an owner of privacy data for one or more regulators. In response to the regulator lookup, a conditional allowance related to the route is received. The conditional allowance indicates that one or more autonomous vehicle sensors of the autonomous vehicle may not capture data related to a first property of a first regulator. the first property is located proximate to the route. The one or more autonomous vehicles sensors of the autonomous vehicle are restricted in response to the conditional allowance.

Substitute autonomous vehicle data

According to one embodiment, a method, computer system, and computer program product for displaying information on a public device is provided. The present invention may include displaying, based on information received from a connected mobile device, user information and dummy information on a display device. The present invention may further include displaying an indicator alongside the user information and a dummy indicator alongside the dummy information. The present invention may further include transmitting user information and dummy information to a display device, synchronizing display of the user information to the display device, and synchronizing haptic feedback based on a received visual pattern. The present invention may further include generating dummy information according to the type of information.

Information display considering privacy on public display

A game system comprising: at least one processor configured to: acquire a first parameter corresponding to a user object, the first parameter indicating an ability of the user object; acquire a second parameter corresponding to the user object, the second parameter being different from the first parameter; acquire a third parameter corresponding to an opponent object, the third parameter indicating an ability of the opponent object; acquire a fourth parameter corresponding to the user object, the fourth parameter being different from the first parameter; compare the second parameter and the fourth parameter; and execute a control for having an advantage on a game in which the user object competes with the opponent object based on the first parameter, the third parameter and a comparison result.

Game system, game control device, and information storage medium

A method for generating a visualization connection line is presented. The method may include displaying, by a processor, a plurality of nodes on a computer visualization, whereby each node within the displayed plurality of nodes includes a plurality of scoring targets. The method may also include calculating an importance score for each scoring target within the plurality of scoring targets. The method may further include determining a connection line path between at least two related nodes within the displayed plurality of nodes based on the calculated importance score. The method may also include displaying a visualization connection line on the computer visualization along the determined connection line path.

Increasing readability of visualization nodes

In an approach for presenting information on an object to be observed, a processor obtains information from a sensor about an object. A processor predicts a time period in which the object is expected to be at a location and in a state, based on historical data, obtained from the sensor, associated with the object. A processor determines whether the object is at the location and in the state within the time period. A processor presents information to a user, wherein the information is about the object.

Presenting information on object to be observed

Displaying pieces of data includes displaying a tree structure on a display device, identifying, in response to a first node being selected from among nodes constituting the displayed tree structure, all nodes connected to the first node in a high-order direction and a low-order direction as a first node group, and identifying, in response to a second node being selected, the second node not being included in the first node group, all nodes connected to the second node in the high-order direction and the low-order direction as a second node group. The second node moves toward the first node according to an operation. A node not to be displayed is determined according to a rule and movement of the second node group. A display device is instructed to display the first node group and the second node group close to each other omitting display of the determined node.

Moving nodes in a tree structure

The present invention provides a method of displaying nodes, including: displaying, in response to that one or more nodes are selected on a view screen on which nodes are displayed together with respective connection lines between the nodes, the selected one or more nodes on a pallet; drawing connection lines extending from the one or more nodes displayed on the pallet, on the view screen; and scrolling, in response to that one or more connection lines extending from the one or more nodes displayed on the pallet are selected or that one or more nodes on the pallet are selected, a display on the view screen such that one or more nodes at connection destinations of the selected connection lines or the selected nodes are displayed within the view screen.

Displaying nodes on a view screen

Embodiments relate to selecting an object displayed on a display device of a computer. Aspects include moving a movable pointer in the display device in response to a user input, determining whether the pointer is in a predetermined temporary selection state, and based on a determination that the pointer is in the temporary selection state, acquiring an object pointed to by the pointer and storing the object in the storage device as a temporarily selected object. Aspects further include acquiring an second object pointed by the pointer in response to the user performing a predetermined object selection operation, comparing the second object with the temporarily selected object, and based on a determination that the second object is identical to the temporarily selected object, determining that the second object is selected.
