Abstract: A variety of improvements to docking systems for portable computing devices are disclosed. For example, improved techniques for maintaining a data connection between a base portion of the docking system and a case portion of the docking system are disclosed. As an example, the docking system can include improved magnetics that help maintain the data connection between the base portion and the case portion, even during rotational movements of the case portion relative to the base portion. Further still, examples are described where the detection of a docking action between the case portion and the base portion can trigger any of a number of responsive actions.

Abstract: Systems, and methods are described for navigating non-dynamic pages at a client device served up from voice search requests by selecting a feature on the image page by a user request for navigating the feature viewed on the image page wherein the feature selected has an appearance of a dynamic feature when served up on the display wherein the user request selects a location on the image page; identifying the feature by the voice cloud server by location data of a selected location on the page; executing a feature request on a corresponding page which contains dynamic script at the voice cloud server to receive a linked page from a third-party search service; and removing dynamic scripts, at the voice cloud search server, of the linked page for serving up as an image page of the linked page at the client device.

Abstract: Techniques for isolating a portion of an online computing service referred to as a deployment unit and configured with a complete build of the online computing service may include routing production traffic away from the deployment unit, applying one or more changes to the complete build, and after applying one or more changes to the complete build, using the deployment unit for testing these changes using end-to-end tests. In one embodiment, the deployment unit may be dedicated to a specific group of tenants that require at least some isolation from other tenants.

Abstract: Correlated signals associated with one or more of stored content, content metadata, and activities associated with the stored content of a tenant may be analyzed and alert(s) determined based on alert threshold(s) or broader “abnormal” pattern detection. Different recipients for different alerts or alert levels may be designated and the alert(s) transmitted to the designated recipients. Alerts may also be displayed through an alert management dashboard of a protection service. The alert(s) and the results of the analysis may also be provided to a policy engine for use in adjusting or creating rules within a policy, alert thresholds, and signal collection/analysis. Post-fact investigations may also be initiated upon alerts.

Abstract: A multi-purpose platform may collect different types of signals such as metadata, documents, activities, etc. and correlate in a multi-stage evaluation framework in order to allow simple queries from components and clients of a compliance and security environment to be converted into rich analyses on available data. Various signals may be collected from tenant environment and correlated at multiple levels based on their content and context. Queries from components such as a threat intelligence manager, a data explorer module, or even clients of the system may be executed on the correlated data by focusing and/or filtering the queries based on the context, effectively converting a simple query to a comprehensive analysis. The platform may have intelligence to decide which type of data to run a query on based on the request and allow data investigations performing a chain-linked investigation that can go multiple levels deep.

Abstract: A notification is received at a workload that indicates that a compliance policy update is available for the workload at a compliance policy management system. A synchronization manager on the workload pulls the compliance policy update from the compliance policy management system and deploys it to the workload.

Abstract: An application asynchronously flattens a graph in a relational store to provide fast access to node relationship queries. The application may implement an algorithm that retrieves forward paths of a start node. The algorithm may also retrieve reverse paths of end node. The application may cross-join the forward and reverse paths to determine link paths connecting the start and end nodes. The application may merge the link paths with existing paths. The application may increment path reference counts. The application may store the link paths as a link between the nodes to represent a relationship between the nodes.

Abstract: A data store receives a page cookie as a request for a page of records. The page cookie acts as a container to a record identifier of a last retrieved record and a timestamp of the last change to the record. The data store identifies retrieved pages to skip over according to a comparison of date, time and data instance name/write-master information for each record in the retrieved pages against the information in the page cookie. The data stamp contains information about the timestamp of last change to the record and data store instance name of the record. Subsequent to finding a matching record, the data store creates a new page cookie based on the page containing the record and transmits the new page cookie and the page to the requester.

Abstract: A secure storage system secures information of a client by first encrypting the information with a first key to generate first-key encrypted data. The secure storage system then encrypts with a second key the first-key encrypted data and the first key to generate second-key encrypted data. The system provides the client with a first portion of the second-key encrypted data. The system stores a second portion of the second-key encrypted data and the second key. When the confidential information is needed, the client provides the first portion. The system retrieves the second portion. The system then decrypts with the second key the first portion and the second portion to generate the first-key encrypted data and the first key. The system then decrypts with the first key the first-key encrypted data to generate the unsecure confidential information.

Abstract: A grinding machine for reducing wood objects to fragments. The machine includes a frame that carries an engine and is supported for movement over the ground. An arm is supported on the frame for pivotal movement relative to the frame and the engine and carries a grinding member. The engine drives the grinding member through a drive transmission linkage that is connected between the engine and the grinding member. The drive transmission linkage transmits torque from the engine to the grinding member even as the arm pivots the grinding member relative to the frame and the engine.

In one embodiment, the system includes a central controller that receives input from a variety of sensors and directly controls operation the pressure regulators in each of the suspension control units without the need for any remote processors. The ride control suspension system may also include wheel position sensors that are external to the accumulator.

Abstract: The invention relates to a modular system for the treatment of process exhaust gases containing pollutants. The object is to propose a possible way of carrying out the aftertreatment of process exhaust gases of this type which allows reliable operation at low cost. The intention is to allow sufficient redundancy and also flexible adaptation to increasing capacities to undergo aftertreatment. The modular system according to the invention is in this case designed in such a way that there is an electronic control for burners, the supply of process exhaust gases, washing liquid and/or of fuel gases in reaction chambers. At least two reaction chambers form modules which can be controlled by means of the electronic control for simultaneous or alternating treatment of process exhaust gases, taking account of detected operating states at the system or at least one module.
