  • Patent number: 11972237
    Abstract: Improved compilers recognize interception declarations in source code, and emit code that replaces invocations of specified artifacts with invocations of specified interceptors instead. Source generators proactively modify program behavior in arbitrary desired ways without introducing hidden security violations and without requiring edits by the program's developers. Interception declarations are visible in source code and development tools. In some cases, different invocations of a particular method at respective locations are intercepted by different replacement methods. Replacement methods have identical signatures, or are otherwise compatible. Some interceptors specify optional parameters. Method calls, field accesses, and property calls may be intercepted. Work to modify program behavior is moved in the program lifecycle from runtime to compile time, thus improving runtime performance and eliminating JIT compilation security risks.

  • Publication number: 20240037374
    Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and computer-implemented methods for determining relationships between one or more outputs of a first model and one or more inputs of a second model that collectively represent a real world system, and chaining the models together. For example, the system described herein may determine how to chain a plurality of models by training an artificial intelligence system using the nodes of the models such that the trained artificial intelligence system predicts related output and input node connections. The system may then link related nodes to chain the models together. The systems, computer program products, and computer-implemented methods may thus, according to various embodiments, enable a plurality of discrete models to be optimally chained.

  • Publication number: 20230332593
    Abstract: Provided is a pump system that includes a primary pump and a secondary pump. The primary pump pumps a primary fluid. A first pump unit of the primary pump includes a first inner liner defining a first primary fluid chamber and also includes a first outer liner disposed around the first inner liner. The interior of the first outer liner defines a secondary fluid chamber. The secondary pump pumps a secondary fluid and is in fluid communication with the first secondary fluid chamber to operably pump the secondary fluid into and out of the first secondary fluid chamber, resulting in the compression and expansion of the first inner liner. A first valve is disposed proximate the primary fluid chamber inlet, and a second valve disposed proximate the primary fluid chamber outlet. The first and second valves allow fluid flow in one direction through the primary fluid chamber.

  • Patent number: 11552952
    Abstract: A method and system for initiating message listening and routing message content to authorized user devices is disclosed. For a second user device to receive notifications regarding records of a first user, the second user device provides information identifying the first user to a notification service. The notification service verifies the identifying information. The notification service initiates one or more listeners to listen for messages flowing over a messaging bus that are relating to the first user. Once a message is identified, at least a portion of the message is used to generate a notification that may be sent to the second user device.
