Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processing operations configured for management of proactive suggestion(s) that may be utilized to manage the sharing of meeting content. The present disclosure further describes optimization of a user interface whereby a user interface experience is improved through new user interface features and actions that enable proactive presentation of suggestions for syncing content with a meeting as well as sharing synced content. Various intelligent signals such as user's calendar, GPS location, camera roll content, capture content (including OCR, whiteboard detection, etc.) and capture time, are collected and analyzed to make smart suggestions to the user to share content with specific set of people (e.g., those involved in meeting).

Abstract: An opposed-piston engine optionally contains an ignition system that is at least partially contained within the combustion chamber to enhance the combustion efficiency of a fuel-air mixture within the combustion system. More specifically, the ignition system contains at least one spark plug having an elongated center electrical delivery electrode, and, an elongated ground electrode. Accordingly, the elongated electrodes extend from an area adjacent to the inner periphery of the cylinder to a radially central area within the combustion chamber. Yet further, a cooling jacket is incorporated to provide cooling of the spark plug.

Abstract: A combined heat, cooling and power system is configured to generate energy as well capture a large percentage of energy that would otherwise be lost using components, including heat transfer components, embedded within a vessel to transfer energy in the form of heat to liquid within the vessel.

Abstract: Systems and methods for secure provisioning and management of computerized devices. The system may include a distributor appliance that is communicatively connected to the computerized device, and that is operable to receive a digital asset and to load the digital asset into the computerized device. It may include an optional digital asset management system that is connected via a secure communication channel to the distributor appliance, and that is operable to transmit the digital asset to the distributor appliance; and a provisioning controller that is connected via a secure communication channel to the distributor appliance and is connected via another secure communication channel to the optional digital asset management system, and that is operable to directly or indirectly transmit the digital asset to the distributor appliance. The computerized device is not fully functional before the digital asset is loaded into it.

Abstract: Scalable certificate management system architectures. An example system may include one or more application platforms (e.g., VMs) that run a registration authority and are communicatively connected to one or more compute engines that perform cryptographic computations required by the registration authority. The system may also include one or more application platforms that run an enrollment certificate authority and that are communicatively connected to one or more compute engines that perform cryptographic computations required by the enrollment certificate authority. It may further include one or more application platforms that run a pseudonym certificate authority and that are communicatively connected to one or more compute engines that perform cryptographic computations required by the pseudonym certificate authority.

Abstract: An example system for securely provisioning computerized devices of a plurality of tenants includes a Security Credential Management System (SCMS) host that is communicatively connected to the devices and is operable to receive provisioning requests from computerized devices needing certificates. Each provisioning request indicates a tenant identifier (ID) uniquely identifying a tenant of the plurality of tenants. The system also includes a registration authority communicatively connected to the SCMS host and operable to transmit requests to SCMS backend components.

The system may include a distributor appliance that is communicatively connected to the computerized device, and that is operable to receive a digital asset and to load the digital asset into the computerized device. It may also include a digital asset management system that is connected via a first secure communication channel to the distributor appliance, and that is operable to generate and conditionally transmit the digital asset to the distributor appliance; and a provisioning controller that is connected via a second secure communication channel to the distributor appliance and is connected via a third secure communication channel to the digital asset management system, and that is operable to direct the digital asset management system to transmit the digital asset to the distributor appliance. The computerized device is not fully functional before the digital asset is loaded into it.

Each provisioning request indicates a tenant identifier (ID) uniquely identifying a tenant of the plurality of tenants. The system also includes a virtual registration authority communicatively connected to the SCMS host and operable to transmit requests to SCMS backend components.

Abstract: Disclosed is a multiple layer substrate that can be used with a top asphalt applicator that eliminates the need for a bottom asphalt applicator and fines applied to the bottom asphalt layer. A low porosity or impermeable bottom layer prevents the flow of asphalt applied to the porous top layers of the substrate from penetrating the bottom surface. This eliminates the need for fines to prevent sticking of shingles in a shingle stack. In addition, substrate layers that combine fiberglass and polyester fibers in various configurations provide a substrate that can be used in typical shingle manufacturing and manufacturing of waterproofing products that is impact resistant.

Abstract: A display magnetic hanger system provides a hanger support that may be repeatedly attached and removed at desired locations on a structure using a remote installation tool to install the hanger support and to install items for display on the hanger support. The installation of the hanger support is to a pre-installed magnet location marker at the desired location(s) on a structure. The desired location may be out of reach of the user desiring to display an item but the system and display item is easily installed using the long-handled remote installation tool.

In one embodiment, the system comprises a spatial database; means for defining a plurality of parametric objects, each of the parametric objects representing a construction component of at least a portion of a building being modeled and including an interface through which the parametric object communicates information with other ones of the parametric objects; a cost database containing, for each of parametric objects, cost information associated with the parametric object; means for assembling a model of the building utilizing the parametric objects, wherein each of the parametric objects is created in the spatial database; and means for generating in real-time a cost-estimate for the building model based on the cost information associated with the parametric objects as the parametric objects are created in the spatial database.

Abstract: An oscillating vane actuator for active control of fluid flow over a surface includes a pivoted vane surrounded by a wedge-shaped chamber, and first and second conduits with openings adjacent the surface. The actuator also includes a rotating shaft with a connecting rod to actuate the vane in a oscillatory manner. As the vane travels in one direction, fluid is forced out from the chamber through the first conduit and opening into the fluid stream adjacent the surface, while fluid is simultaneously drawn in through the second opening and conduit into the opposite side of the chamber. Similarly, when the vane travels in the opposite direction, fluid is forced out through the second conduit and opening into the fluid stream adjacent the surface, while fluid is simultaneously drawn in through the first opening and conduit.
