A system described herein may maintain a local copy of a distributed ledger, including a first set of records that each include payload information. The system may maintain a restricted access ledger based on the distributed ledger, including a second set of records that include modified payload information included in the first set of records of the distributed ledger. The system may receive a request to access the distributed ledger, including one or more attributes, and may determine, based on the one or more attributes of the request, whether to grant access to the distributed ledger or to the restricted access ledger. When determining to grant access to the distributed ledger, the system may provide payload information from the distributed ledger in response to the request, and when determining to grant restricted access to the restricted access ledger, the system may provide payload information from the restricted access ledger.

Systems and methods for policy-based access to distributed ledger via secure access node

A system described herein may maintain a distributed ledger that includes records, such as Non-Fungible Tokens ('NFTs'), which may represent assets dynamic attributes. The system may record a first record, associated with a given asset, to a distributed ledger. The first record may include an identifier, such as an identifier associated with the asset. The system may receive a request to update the attributes of the asset, where the request may include the identifier. The request may include a hash of the previously recorded attributes of the asset, where such attributes may be maintained by an off-chain repository. The system may compare a hash of the attributes, as included in the first record, to the hash included in the request, and may authorize the recordation of a second record to the distributed ledger, including the updated attributes, when the hashes match.

Systems and methods for dynamic asset tokens on a distributed ledger

A system described herein may receive a request for a blockchain network to perform a particular set of operations, such as executing chaincode recorded to a blockchain associated with the blockchain network. The system may receive Key Performance Indicators ('KPIs') of nodes of the blockchain network, and may receive a consensus policy associated with the blockchain network. The consensus policy may indicate a particular quantity of result sets used to verify execution of a given operation by the blockchain network. The system may assign different nodes of the blockchain network to perform different portions of the requested set of operations. The assignments may be determined based on the consensus policy and the KPIs of the nodes. The system may aggregate result sets from different nodes in order to generate aggregated result sets, where the quantity of aggregated result sets satisfies the consensus policy.

Systems and methods for load-balanced chaincode execution and verification in a blockchain network

A system described herein may receive a distributed ledger creation request that specifies a quantity of nodes. The system may provision a plurality of sets of hardware resources to implement a set of nodes which includes the requested quantity of nodes. Provisioning the plurality of sets of hardware resources may include generating communication information associated with each node of the set of nodes. The system may instruct at least one node, of the set of nodes, to establish a distributed ledger. The at least one node may communicate with one or more other nodes of the set of nodes to establish the distributed ledger. The system may output, in response to the distributed ledger creation request, communication information associated with one or more nodes of the plurality of nodes. The communication information may be used to interact with the established distributed ledger.

Systems and methods for on-demand distributed ledger establishment

A device can include an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) frame physically connected to a UAV, two or more support arms connected to and extending from the frame, a first servomotor coupled to a first support arm and providing rotatable movement of the first support arm in a first plane; a second servomotor coupled to a second support arm and providing rotatable movement of the second support arm in a second plane, a second frame connected to the support arms, and an end effector connected to the second frame.

Unmanned aerial vehicle-mounted apparatus

A device can receive an indication to perform a test of a capability of the device to receive data. The data can have a threshold data rate. The device can perform an action to cause the device to receive the data from a source of the data at the threshold data rate. The device can monitor a set of metrics related to the data or a performance of the device. The device can perform an analysis of the set of metrics after monitoring the set of metrics. The device can identify a source of an error based on a result of performing the analysis of the set of metrics. The source of the error can be related to the data or the performance of the device. The device can perform another action related to fixing the source of the error.

Automatic device testing

A tester device may establish a connection to customer devices using protocols, such as a Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) protocol or an Open Mobile Alliance device management (OMA DM) protocol. The tester device may receive information related to wireless communications or operations of the customer devices and the information may be determined by the customer devices. The tester device may perform an analysis of the information. The tester device may provide instructions to the customer devices to cause the customer devices to use a channel to communicate. The tester device may perform a throughput test of the customer devices. The tester device may receive additional information based on performing the throughput test. The tester device may perform a comparison of the information and the additional information. The tester device may provide other instructions to the customer devices to cause the customer devices to use the channel.

Performing an analysis of information to identify a source of an error related to a device

An approach for providing feature configuration management is described. A service controller platform, monitors at least one environmental parameter of a mobile device; determines an event according to a threshold, the event being based on at least a change in the at least one environmental parameter; determines a feature configuration setting associated with at least one of the threshold or the event according to a device profile, wherein the device profile specifies a feature configuration setting that includes at least one of locking the mobile device, limiting access to at least one predetermined application, or disabling the mobile device; and causes the mobile device to change a feature configuration according to the feature configuration setting.

Method and apparatus for providing safety services relating to mobile devices

An approach for providing a shared user interface view is described. A user interface view sharing platform may present a user interface view at a first device for interacting with a second device, wherein the first device has an interface to the second device. The user interface view sharing platform may further encode the user interface view, data associated with the first device, other data associated with the second device, or a combination thereof into a data payload. The user interface view sharing platform may also transmit the data payload to a third device, wherein the user interface view, the data associated with the first device, the other data associated with the second device, or a combination thereof is reconstructed at the third device for interacting with the second device via the third device based on the data payload.
