In a method for sending a server identifier to a KVM switch, a management processor of a server determines that a push button on an exterior surface of the server has been pushed. In response to determining that the push button has been pushed, the management processor generates a displayable image containing a server identifier for the server, includes the displayable image in a network message, and broadcasts the network message to a local network that includes the server and a KVM switch. In one example, the method also includes receiving the server button message at the KVM switch when the KVM switch is not switched to enable the server to control a video port of the KVM switch, and in response to receiving the server button message at the KVM switch, sending the displayable image to a monitor via the video port. Other implementations are described and claimed.

Systems and methods described herein provide tactile challenge-response tests for limiting access to electronic resources associated with a computing system. When a user requests access an electronic resource, the system activates an alternating voltage in an electrode layer for a display associated with the system to generate an electrovibrational pattern on the display and prompting the user to perform a touch gesture upon the affected region of the display to allow the user to perceive the electrovibrational pattern via the user's sense of touch. Next, the computing system renders multiple different visual patterns on the display and prompts the user to select the visual pattern that matches the electrovibrational pattern. If the user correctly selects the visual pattern that matches the electrovibrational pattern, the system allows the user to access the electronic resource.

Tactile challenge-response testing for electronic devices

A computer broadcasts a tiersignal from a target device and records transmission data of the broadcast. The computer detects the tiersignal at nearby propagator devices and records additional transmission data before determining whether a propagation limit has been reached. Based on not reaching the propagation limit, the computer instructs the nearby propagator devices to broadcast a tiersignal. The computer records further transmission data at other nearby propagator devices detecting the tiersignal and, again, determines whether the propagation limit has been reached. Based on determining that the propagation limit has been reached, the computer filters outliers from all the transmission data and determines the precise location of the target device. Furthermore, the computer displays the relative location of the target device on one or more devices.

A method to detect and diagnose where an error occurs in a source code that is associated with a software program or a website is provided. The method may include receiving a log report associated with the software program or the website, whereby by the log report is sent based on a hidden tag associated with the software program or the website. The method may also include analyzing the received log report. The method may further include detecting at least one error based on the analysis of the received log report. The method may include reverting back to a previous line in the source code associated with the software program or the website, whereby the reverting is based on the detection of the at least one error.

Automatically complete a specific software task using hidden tags

A computer-implemented method for remotely providing fonts for an electronic document comprises receiving a request to access an electronic document from a user terminal; locating an original version of the electronic document; selecting a code point encoding scheme from a plurality of code point encoding schemes based on a parameter in the request to access the electronic document; converting the original version of the electronic document to a second version of the electronic document based on the selected code point encoding scheme; and providing the second version of the electronic document to the user terminal.

Remotely providing fonts for an electronic document

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system for a dynamic copy-and-paste operation on a graphical user interface. Initially, a first application having a set of content to copy is identified. An indication to copy a subset of content from the first application to a second application is received. The second application has a predefined category. A communication channel is established between the first and second applications. A portion of content to copy from the first application to the second application is determined. Finally, the copied content is displayed on the second application graphical user interface.

Dynamic copy content retrieval

In an approach for storing frames of a video, a computer divides a video into one or more frames. The computer identifies a frame type associated with an individual frame within the divided one or more frames, wherein the identified frame type includes one of the following: an I-frame, a B-frame, and a P-frame. The computer stores the individual frame within a corresponding storage location based on the associated identified frame type.
