A method for free flow fever screening is presented. The method includes capturing a plurality of frames from thermal data streams and visual data streams related to a same scene to define thermal data frames and visual data frames, detecting and tracking a plurality of individuals moving in a free-flow setting within the visual data frames, and generating a tracking identification for each individual of the plurality of individuals present in a field-of-view of the one or more cameras across several frames of the plurality of frames. The method further includes fusing the thermal data frames and the visual data frames, measuring, by a fever-screener, a temperature of each individual of the plurality of individuals within and across the plurality of frames derived from the thermal data streams and the visual data streams, and generating a notification when a temperature of an individual exceeds a predetermined threshold temperature.

Free flow fever screening

A method for performing resource orchestration for microservices-based 5G applications in a dynamic, heterogenous, multi-tiered compute and network environment is presented. The method includes managing compute requirements and network requirements of a microservices-based application jointly by positioning computing nodes distributed across multiple layers, across edges and at a central cloud, identifying and modeling coupling relationships between compute and network resources for a plurality of microservices, when only application-level requirements are provided, to build coupling functions, solving a multi-objective optimization problem to identify how each of the plurality of microservices are deployed in the dynamic, heterogenous, multi-tiered compute and network environment by employing the coupling functions to jointly optimize resource usage of the compute and network resources across different compute and network slices, and deriving optimal joint network and compute resource allocation and function placement decisions.

Resource orchestration for microservices-based 5G applications

Methods and systems for managing communications include identifying a system condition in a distributed computing system comprising a first microservice in communication with a second microservice. A communications method is identified responsive to the identified system condition using a reinforcement learning model that associates communication methods with system conditions. The identified communications method is implemented for communications between the first microservice and the second microservice, such that the first microservice and the second microservice use the identified communications method to transmit data.

Dynamic microservice intercommunication configuration

Methods and systems for deploying a video analytics system include determining one or more applications for a security system in an environment, including one or more constraints. Each functional module in a directed graph representation of one or more applications is profiled to generate one or more configurations for each functional module. The nodes of each graph representation represent functional modules of the respective application, and repeated module configurations are skipped. Resource usage for each of the one or more applications is estimated using the one or more configurations of each functional module and the one or more constraints. The one or more applications are deployed in the environment.

Automatic profiling of video analytics applications

A method for optimal placement of microservices of a micro-services-based application in a multi-tiered computing network environment employing 5G technology is presented. The method includes accessing a centralized server or cloud to request a set of services to be deployed on a plurality of sensors associated with a plurality of devices, the set of services including launching an application on a device of the plurality of devices, modeling the application as a directed graph with vertices being microservices and edges representing communication between the microservices, assigning each of the vertices of the directed graph with two cost weights, employing an edge monitor (EM), an edge scheduler (ES), an alerts-manager at edge (AM-E), and a file transfer (FT) at the edge to handle partitioning of the microservices, and dynamically mapping the microservices to the edge or the cloud to satisfy application-specific response times.
