  • Patent number: 11917083
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to automated processes for attesting to trustworthiness of a host considered for connection to a data center network. The attestation process is performed in two attestation phases. In the first phase, attestation is performed on a smart network interface controller (“SNIC”) connected to an internal bus of the host using a first trusted platform module (“TPM”) of the SNIC. In the second phase, attestation is performed on the host by the SNIC using a second TPM connected to the internal bus of the host in response to a determination that the SNIC is trustworthy. The host is connected to the data center network in response to a determination by the SNIC that the host is trustworthy.

  • Patent number: 11914068
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a radar ranging system based on a true random generator and a ranging method thereof The present disclosure adopts the following technical scheme: the system comprises a radar signal modulation and transmission unit and a radar signal receiving and processing unit, wherein the radar signal modulation and transmission unit inputs and stores a true random binary sequence generated by the true random generator in a memory, and cyclically outputs the true random binary sequence to a BPSK modulator for phase modulation. The receiving and amplifying unit receives the reflected radar signal. The down-sampling unit down samples the intermediate frequency signal generated by the mixers. The data processing unit converts the sampled analog signal into a digital signal and cross-correlates the signal with the true random binary sequence in the memory, so as to obtain the distance to the object side to be measured.

  • Patent number: 11907324
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for generating and modifying a workflow comprising a series of webpages based on an online document. A document management system accesses an online document selected by a user and classifies each field of the online document into one of a set of categories. For each category, the system generates a form webpage comprising questions corresponding to each field classified as the category and combines the generated webpages to create a workflow. The system may modify the workflow by generating and adding one or more additional form webpages based on one or more answers provided by an entity completing the webform page. In response to the entity completing the modified generated workflow, the system generates a completed document based on the online document and the answers provided by the entity.

  • Patent number: 11897468
    Abstract: While operating a host vehicle in an area, a target vehicle is identified in a sub-area based on detecting a visual cue from the target vehicle. A future location of the target vehicle is predicted to intersect a path of the host vehicle. A stop position of the host vehicle is determined based on the future location of the target vehicle. At least one of the target vehicle is determined to have moved or the path of the host vehicle is updated. Then, the host vehicle is operated to the stop position or along the updated path.

  • Publication number: 20240045262
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display panel and a vehicle-mounted liquid crystal display device are provided. In the liquid crystal display panel, in an array substrate and/or a color filter substrate, a number of reflective interfaces in a functional area is greater than a number of reflective interfaces in a display area. Under the condition that an infrared optical transmittance is not affected, a reflectivity of light in the functional area is improved compared to the display area. This reduces or even eliminates a brightness difference between the functional area and the display area when a display is completely black.
