Abstract: Provided is improved methodology for the nucleation of certain metal nitride substrate surfaces utilizing certain silicon-containing halides, silicon-containing amides, and certain metal precursors, in conjunction with nitrogen-containing reducing gases. While utilizing a pretreatment step, the methodology shows greatly improved nucleation wherein a microelectronic device substrate having such a metal nitride film deposited thereon has a thickness of about 10 ? to about 15 ? and less than about 1% of void area. Once such nucleation has been achieved, traditional layer-upon-layer deposition can rapidly take place.

Abstract: A device which can be exposed to chemical vapors, such as a molybdenum vapor, a tungsten vapor, or any combination thereof, which has a coating covering at least a portion thereof. The coating reduces or inhibits mass change at an outer surface of the device from exposure to the vapor. In certain situations, the mass change is a mass gain, and the coating reduces or inhibits the mass gain of equal to or less than 1×10?5 g mm?2.

Abstract: A breach detection engine detects and mitigates the effects of breaches across one or more data sources. An index is generated based on one or more data sources and the index is queried using keywords indicative of potential breaches. A database of potential breaches is populated based on the query of the index. The potential breach database is queried using keywords associated with a system identity (e.g., a third party). A likelihood of a candidate breach is identified based on a set of breach criteria weights. A network node associated with a candidate breach determined to be an actual breach is identified for isolation or for the performance of one or more additional security actions.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for predicting and classifying events that create a sudden or substantial increase in network traffic activity. To begin, an increase of network activity can be detected. Upon detecting the increase in network activity, it can be determined that the increase in network activity is unexpected in view of one or more predicted activity events. The system can be adjusted to reduce the network activity in response to determining that the increase in network activity is unexpected.

Abstract: A computing resource service provider may operate a secure proxy fleet within a content delivery network. The secure proxy fleet may protect sensitive data communicated between a client device and a backend service over one or more networks, for example, over the content delivery network to a computing resource service provider environment. The secure proxy fleet may protect sensitive data by encrypting the sensitive data before it is forwarded to a destination.

Abstract: A cleaning system for use with a filter is described herein. The cleaning system includes a housing including a main enclosure defining an interior sized to receive the filter, a collection vessel coupled in communication with the housing, and a nozzle configured to direct a stream of air towards the filter to dislodge particles from the filter. A pneumatic suction device is coupled in communication with the collection vessel, wherein the pneumatic suction device is configured to draw the particles dislodged from the filter towards the collection vessel.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods that help automate the generation of a test vector. Every functional product, be it a service, device, or combination thereof, has one or more documents associated with it. These documents may include such documentation as: (1) Release Notes; (2) Configuration Guides; (3) command line interfaces (CLIs)/application program interfaces (APIs); (4) Data Sheets; (5) Installation Guides; (6) User Manuals; (7) Errata notices; and (8) other documentation. In embodiments, command data-models and ranges and sequence of valid inputs to the data-model are extracted from natural language expressions in documentation related to a specific product. In embodiments, this extracted information is used to generate one or more table of attributes and properties or constraints about which a test vector may be generated for testing a command.

Abstract: A penetration testing apparatus for testing the bearing strength of ground, soil layers, base-courses, subbases and subgrades without the need for much manual operation, includes the following components operatively connected together, comprising a frame support (5) which supports an actuating apparatus (7), power supply apparatus (9), movable carriage assembly (13), ground penetrating member (15), carriage drive mechanism 17 and ground stabilizing means (18), operatively connected together to carry out a ground test. The movable carriage assembly (13) movably supports one ground penetrating member (15).

Abstract: A method of digitizing an audio track carried on an elongate recording medium, such as a movie film, includes transporting the recording medium containing the audio track past a reader to enable sequential reading of the audio track. The reading of the audio track generates an analog output signal. The method also includes sensing a rate of transportation of the recording medium, and sampling the analog output signal at a sampling rate determined on the basis of the sensed rate of transportation to digitize the analog output signal. A system for digitizing audio is also disclosed.

Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein for statistical machine translation. In particular, the disclosed technologies include extensions to conventional machine translation pipelines: the use of multiple domain-specific and non-domain-specific dynamic language translation models and language models; cluster-based language models; and large-scale discriminative training. Incremental update technologies are also disclosed for use in updating a machine translation system in four areas: word alignment; translation modeling; language modeling; and parameter estimation. A mechanism is also disclosed for training and utilizing a runtime machine translation quality classifier for estimating the quality of machine translations without the benefit of reference translations.
