Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for secure endpoint authentication credential control are described. An endpoint agent may receive an indication from an operating system of an endpoint device that the operating has received authentication credentials from a user. The endpoint agent may be housed in the endpoint device, and may detect a change between the received set of authentication credentials and a previous version of authentication credentials. Based on this detection, the endpoint agent may transmit the received authentication credentials to a central server. The central server may transmit the authentication credentials to an information technology (IT) resource which requires user authentication prior to granting access to a user.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for executing a serverless workload on a transient infrastructure is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a request for executing a workload and at least one policy, selecting an infrastructure component of the transient infrastructure for an execution of the workload, wherein the transient infrastructure is implemented utilizing a plurality of geographically distributed computing nodes, and executing the workload on the transient infrastructure. Furthermore, the method comprises upon receiving an interfering event during the execution of the workload causing a stop of the workload execution, freezing the execution of the workload, storing intermediate results and statuses of the workload execution in a cross-domain storage system, terminating the execution of the workload, and continuing the workload execution using the intermediate results and under a constraint defined by the at least one policy.

Abstract: Provided herein are new aluminum alloys comprising Ca, Mg and/or Zn and new coated aluminum alloys comprising surface layers (e.g., coatings) comprising Ca, Mn, Zn, and/or Ni that can be used in aluminum alloy products, such as clad layers. Also provided are methods of making these aluminum alloys, coated aluminum alloys, and clad layers, as well as clad products. These alloys, coated alloys, clad layers, and products possess a combination of strength and other key attributes, such as corrosion resistance, formability, and applicability of paint line pretreatments. The materials can be used in a variety of applications, including automotive, transportation, and electronics applications.

Abstract: A crossbow having an energy storage system configured for storing energy when a bowstring is cocked at full-draw and releasing at least a portion of the stored energy when a trigger is pulled releasing the bowstring. The stored energy is defined by an area under a power-curve or draw-curve of the crossbow. The power-curve is defined by the force required to draw the bowstring from an un-cocked position to the cocked position. Between the un-cocked position and an intermediate position, the force required to draw the bowstring is substantially proportional to the draw distance. Between the intermediate position and the cocked position, the force required to draw the bowstring is substantially constant. When the cocked bowstring is released, at least a portion of the stored energy is transferred in the form of kinetic energy of an arrow or bolt nocked on the cocked bowstring.

Abstract: A device including a reservoir configured to receive a lubricant from a machine lubricated with the lubricant. The device also includes a pressure equalizer connected to the reservoir. The device also includes a first loop comprising a first line system through which the lubricant flows between the machine and the reservoir. The lubricant within the first loop is at a first pressure. The device also includes a temperature regulation system configured to regulate a temperature of the lubricant. The device also includes a second loop comprising a second line system through which the lubricant flows between the temperature regulation system and the reservoir. The lubricant within the second loop is at a second pressure that is less than the first pressure. The second loop is separate from the first loop.
