The invention discloses a computer-implemented method, computer program product, and computer system, for utilizing a hypervisor installed on a smartphone running separate virtual machines (VMs), one configured for personal use and another for work use, thereby allowing for separate operating environments on one piece of hardware. The method includes receiving one or more notifications, or calls, on the smartphone and determining whether the one or more notifications, or calls, are during work hours. The method selects, automatically, the work VM as default if the one or more notifications, or calls, are during work hours. If the one or more notifications, or calls, are not during work hours, the method automatically selects the personal VM as default. The method further notifies a user to switch VMs if the one or more notifications, or calls, occur during a time that is a non-default VM.

A method for displaying identification information for devices electrically coupled to a plurality of ports includes determining a first device is electrically coupled to a first port out of a plurality of ports. The method further includes establishing communications between a first communication transmitter on a first electrical connector for the first device and a first communication receiver associated with the first port. In response to determining first identification information is available for the first device, the method further includes receiving, from the first communication transmitter, at the first communication receiver the first identification information for the device. The method further includes displaying, in a first display, the first identification information for the first device, wherein the first display is associated with the first port.

Electrical port labeling

A method and system are provided for implementing enhanced network device identifying and labeling via a connected Ethernet cable. A system includes a server having a port connected by the Ethernet cable to a port of a switch. An Ethernet runt packet containing metadata identifying the server name and the port is transmitted on the Ethernet cable by the server. Another Ethernet runt packet containing metadata identifying the switch name and the port is transmitted on the Ethernet cable by the switch. Use of the transmitted metadata of the Ethernet runt packets enables dynamically identifying and labeling the Ethernet cable, the connected server and port and switch and port.

Implementing enhanced network device labeling via ethernet

Embodiments for managing drones by one or more processors are described. A condition related to the operation of a drone in a selected area is detected. A set of drone operating parameters associated with the operation of the drone in the selected area is changed based on the detecting of the condition. A signal representative of the changing of the set of drone operating parameters is generated.

A consumption device may be detected by a processor. At least one property of the consumption device may be determined. Based on that property, a power configuration for the consumption device may be determined. The processor may permit a finite electrical cell associated with the processor to power the consumption device according to that power configuration.

Management of finite electrical cells

A computer system for implementing a method for communicating an audio message file from a computing device to an audio player device. The computer system includes the computing device, the audio player device, and one or more computer readable hardware storage devices containing program instructions which upon being executed on both the computing device and the audio player device, implement the method. An audio message file is generated by the computing device and sent to the audio player device. In response to receipt of the audio message file, the audio player device halts play of a song or other audio content that was being played by the audio player device at a time of receipt of the audio message file, and plays the audio message file.

Controlling MP3 player

In an approach for automated vehicle authorization. A processor receives a first set of credentials from at least a first near field communication device, wherein the first set of credentials indicates information about a person. A processor receives a second set of credentials from at least a second near field communication device, wherein the second set of credentials indicates information about a vehicle. A processor compares the first set of credentials to the second set of credentials. A processor determines whether the person indicated by the first set of credentials has authority to operate the vehicle, based on, at least, the comparison of the first set of credentials to the second set of credentials.

Vehicle authorization based on near field communication

A vehicle can be controlled based on feedback from a driver of the vehicle when a mobile device is connected to a computer system. A profile for a driver can be used. The system can receive data about the driver from the mobile device. The data and answers can be sent to a natural language processing (NLP) system for analysis. The NLP system can return a determination that the user is cognitively disengaged, and thus unable to safely drive the vehicle. The system can then control the vehicle.

Vehicle control system

An approach is provided in which a public protection system sends a data collection request to user devices located within a geographical proximity of an incident in progress that instructs the user devices to capture real-time data corresponding to the incident in progress. The public protection system receives the real-time data from the user devices and determines that a set of the real-time data includes evidence data corresponding to the incident in progress.

Incident data collection for public protection agencies

A computer implemented method and computer program product provides for announcing file availability. A source device receives a uniform resource locator (URL). The source device reports the URL, the URL corresponding to an event and to a network addressable server.

Event media file discovery

A method of accessing a network wirelessly is described. In the method an authentication is provided to access the network from a wireless device to a first network node via a first wireless signal having a first range. A proximity validation is provided to access the network through the first network node. The proximity validation is provided to the first network node when the wireless device is within a second range of a second wireless signal of a second network node. The second range is less than the first range. The method further provides for accessing the network when both the authentication and the proximity validation are valid.

Proximity based dual authentication for a wireless network

Sharing a hosted device in a computer network that includes at least one hosted device and a plurality of hosts, including: registering a hosted device with a router, wherein the hosted device is hosted by a host; assigning, by the router, a network-wide identifier to the hosted device; and mapping, by the router, the network-wide identifier for the hosted device to an identifier for the host.
