Patent number: 10599859Abstract: Various hardware and software configurations are described herein which provide improved security and control over protected data. In some embodiments, a computer includes a main motherboard card coupled to all input/output devices connected to the computer, and a trusted operating system operates on the main motherboard which includes an access control module for controlling access to the protected data in accordance with rules. The trusted operating system stores the protected data in an unprotected form only on the memory devices on the main motherboard. The computer may also have a computer card coupled to the main motherboard via a PCI bus, on which is operating a guest operating system session for handling requests for data from software applications on the computer.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2018Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignee: INTELLECTUAL VENTURES II LLCInventors: Daniel Joseph Sturtevant, Christopher Lalancette, Michael Nathan Lack, Paul B.

Patent number: 10346784Abstract: Receiving an event queue including unprocessed delivery events, each characterized by an event time. Iteratively, until a stopping condition, for an unprocessed event from the queue, setting a simulation time to the earliest event time; processing the unprocessed event; determining at least one simulated performance measure based on characteristics of system agents over the simulation period; and transmitting the determined performance measure for display. Where unprocessed event is a route planning event, processing includes requesting, and receiving, route planning from a shipping system of the near-term delivery system. Processing further comprises identifying events derivative from the unprocessed event, and adding the identified derivative events to the event queue. Processing further comprises updating the status of each agent as a function of derivative events and received route planning information.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2014Date of Patent: July 9, 2019Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: James Powell, Michael Nathan Nonemacher, Haakan Younes, Brandon Kyle Trew
