Abstract: Systems and methods for providing remote farm damage assessment are provided herein. In some embodiments, a system and method for providing remote farm damage assessment may include, determining a set of damage assessment locales for damage assessment; incorporating the set of damage assessment locales into a workflow; providing the workflow to a user device; receiving a first set of damage assessment images from the user device based on the workflow provided, wherein each of the first set of damage assessment images includes geolocation information and camera information; determining a damage assessment based on the first set of damage assessment images using a damage assessment machine learning model; and outputting a damage assessment indication including one or more of whether there is damage, a confidence level of assessing the damage, or a confidence level associated with the level of damage.

Abstract: A hydrocarbon isomerization system for an iC4 feed stream that provides for removal of C3s from an isomerization reactor feed stream by the addition of a depropanizer column to remove C3s from the reactor effluent stream after it has passed through a stabilizer column. This configuration prevents a buildup of C3s in the system and provides significant savings by reducing the size of the chloride treaters that are used to remove chlorides from off gas, increasing chlorides recovered to the hydrocarbon feed stream for use in combination with the isomerization catalyst. Significant utility savings are provided as well as a reduction in the amount of perchloroethane (PERC) and adsorbent that are required.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing aliasing in an active-active multi-homed Provider Backbone Bridging Ethernet Virtual Private Network (PBB-EVPN) network. For example, PE devices of a multi-homed Ethernet segment may send packets received from the PBB-EVPN core network over the Ethernet segment to the customer device even if the receiving PE device has not learned the source MAC address of the CE device. In particular, the PE devices coupled to the multi-homed Ethernet segment may apply aliasing techniques in which a PE device performs a lookup of a BMAC address and the Customer Virtual Local Area Network (C-VLAN), instead of a lookup of a destination MAC address, to determine the path to send the data traffic.

Abstract: In one example, a network device includes an interface card comprising a physical network interface; a forwarding component associated with the interface card; a control unit comprising one or more processors, wherein the control unit is configured to program the forwarding component to configure sets of one or more valid media access control (MAC) addresses in association with respective logical interfaces of a plurality of logical interfaces configured for the physical interface, wherein the forwarding component is configured to identify a logical interface of the plurality of logical interfaces with which to process a packet received by the network device at the physical interface, and wherein the forwarding component is configured to, in response to a determination that the set of valid MAC addresses associated with the identified logical interface does not include a valid MAC address that matches a destination MAC address of the packet, drop the packet.

Abstract: Processes and apparatus for isomerizing hydrocarbons are provided. The process comprises providing a feed stream comprising C5, C6 and C7+ hydrocarbons. The feed stream is separated to produce a first stream rich in C5 and C6 hydrocarbons and a second stream rich in benzene and C7+ hydrocarbons. The first stream is isomerized in the presence of isomerization catalyst and hydrogen in an isomerization zone under isomerization conditions to produce an isomerized stream. The second stream is contacted with a benzene saturation catalyst at benzene saturation conditions to produce a saturation effluent stream comprising cyclohexane.
