Abstract: Systems and methods for cloud object storage and versioning are provided. In an example, a cloud object storage and versioning system (COSVS) coordinates insertion of metadata into a database and data into an object store in a compute infrastructure, the compute infrastructure including the database, the object store, a data source, and a client application interacting with the data source. The COSVS has an architecture comprising a client API layer confined to provide an interface to the client application to facilitate storing or restoring of items originally obtained from the data source, and query different versions of item content originally obtained from the data source; a deduplication layer to deduplicate item content and store items originally obtained from the data source devoid of external item metadata or semantic relations among items; and a packing layer confined to store and retrieve bytes of item or object content.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for the monitoring and authorization of an optimization device in a network. In exemplary embodiments, an optimization device transmits an authorization request message to a portal to receive authorization to operate. The portal transmits an authorization response message to the optimization device with capability parameters for operation of the device, including at least one expiration parameter for the authorization. The optimization device sends updated authorization request messages to the portal with its device usage information, such that the portal can dynamically monitor the optimization device and continue to authorize its operation.

Abstract: A rotating magnet heater for metal products, such as aluminum strip, can include permanent magnet rotors arranged above and below a moving metal strip to induce moving or time varying magnetic fields through the metal strip. The changing magnetic fields can create currents (e.g., eddy currents) within the metal strip, thus heating the metal strip. A magnetic rotor set can include a pair of matched magnetic rotors on opposite sides of a metal strip that rotate at the same speed. Each magnetic rotor of a set can be positioned equidistance from the metal strip to avoid pulling the metal strip away from the passline. A downstream magnetic rotor set can be used in close proximity to an upstream magnetic rotor set to offset tension induced by the upstream magnetic rotor set.

Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, devices, and machine-readable mediums in which an ad-hoc neighbor group of wireless devices provides a retransmission service to a first wireless device in the neighboring group over an out-of-band wireless protocol. That is, a first transmission from a transmitter to the first wireless device over a first wireless protocol may be received by a second wireless device in a neighboring group of wireless devices. The second wireless device may then retransmit information (e.g., packets) from the first transmission to the first wireless device over a second wireless protocol and/or channel. Thus, for example, a second wireless device may receive a satellite signal sent to the first wireless device and provide a retransmission of the signal or information from the signal to the first wireless device over a Wi-Fi direct protocol.
