Abstract: A subsea wellbore monitoring system of the present disclosure includes hanger, plug, and monitoring assemblies. The hanger assembly installs on landing in the wellhead, engages the lock profile, and has a hanger seal sealing in the wellhead. The plug assembly is supported in the hanger assembly and has a plug seal to seal in the landing. Ports of the plug assembly communicate with a bore envelope and an annulus envelope. The monitoring assembly has pressure monitors that communicate with the ports and measure pressure measurements related to the envelopes. The hanger and plug seals can be elastomeric and/or metal elements. The hanger and plug seals are preferably expandable or can be energized outward so the seals can pass any shoulders and profiles when installed in the wellbore and can then seal against the internal surfaces.

Abstract: A telecommunication includes a computing device and a mobile device. The computing device is in communication with a blockchain network, a subscription manager data preparation (SM-DP) platform, and the mobile device. The computing device is configured to perform a first set of operations. The first set of operations includes retrieving an identity token from the blockchain network. The identity token is a first non-fungible token uniquely identifying a user of the mobile device. The first set of operations further includes retrieving, from the SM-DP platform, an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) profile for the identity token from the blockchain network. The first set of operations further includes generating, via the blockchain network, a second non-fungible token. The second non-fungible token includes the eSIM profile. The mobile device is in communication with the blockchain network.

Abstract: A data processing system includes support for sub-page granular memory tags. The data processing system comprises at least one core, a memory controller responsive to the core, random access memory (RAM) responsive to the memory controller, and a memory protection module in the memory controller. The memory protection module enables the memory controller to use a memory tag value supplied as part of a memory address to protect data stored at a location that is based on a location value supplied as another part of the memory address. The data processing system also comprises an operating system (OS) which, when executed in the data processing system, manages swapping a page of data out of the RAM to non-volatile storage (NVS) by using a memory tag map (MTM) to apply memory tags to respective subpages within the page being swapped out. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
