Abstract: A graph tracks the lineage of customer data, including when it was originally extracted from a customer computing system, and any transformation results indicating transformations that were performed on the customer data. The graph is traversed to identify nodes in the graph that have expired based upon data removal policies. The customer data represented by the expired nodes in the graph is deleted and the graph is modified to delete the expired nodes. The modified graph is then stored in persistent memory until data removal is next triggered.

Abstract: A data receiving method, a terminal device, and a system are provided. The terminal device can be connected to an external antenna device, and when the terminal device is connected to the external antenna device, first antennas of the terminal device and second antennas of the external antenna device form a MIMO antenna array. The method includes: acquiring, by the terminal device, first data received by at least one of the first antennas and a composite signal sent by the external antenna device; demultiplexing the composite signal by a demultiplexer to obtain second data corresponding to at least one of the second antennas; and processing the first data and the second data by a processor, so as to obtain target data.

Abstract: Network devices are securely provisioned through authenticated ZTP servers. In some approaches, a storage device local to the network device includes information for connecting with and authenticating a local or remote ZTP server. This information may include a root of trust to use when connecting with a designated ZTP server. The ZTP server may be identified using either a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server or a network address specified in the local memory storage. In an approach, the local memory storage is a removable USB flash memory device inserted into the network device when the device is booted up. In another approach, the ZTP authentication information is stored within memory integrated within the network device. Once a ZTP server is connected to the network device, a secure connection may be established such as a secure transport layer session (TLS) utilizing the root of trust.

Abstract: A method of tracking location of an electronic device includes broadcasting a communication signal in a first short range wireless communication mode; and receiving location information of a second electronic device in a second short range wireless communication mode switched to, from the first short range wireless communication mode, the location information of the second electronic device being detected by using the broadcasted communication signal.

Abstract: A method for managing applications in an electronic device is provided. The method includes displaying a user interface (UI) that has a first region and a second region in which a plurality of objects are displayed, displaying, in the first region, at least one object that corresponds to a designated input from among the plurality of objects, wherein each of the plurality of objects corresponds to one of an application stored in the device and a notification generated in the device, and wherein the at least one object usable for activating at least one function from among a plurality of functions associated with the application or the notification that corresponds to the selected object.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an oral care composition and a method of disinfecting the oral cavity. So far synthetic material (e.g. Triclosan) has been used which is believed by many consumers to be harsh on them. Consumers, more and more prefer using products that contain natural materials. Further, in many countries, culturally or otherwise, people are reluctant to using alcohol in their mouthwashes. The present inventors have been working on solving these problems and have come up with an oral care composition which includes natural materials that are found to interact synergistically with certain metal salts in killing S. mutans, a bacterium responsible for tooth decay.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transparent/translucent liquid antimicrobial mouthwash composition that is substantially free of low molecular weight alcohol. It is a problem to include antimicrobial actives of natural origin (essential oils) which are generally substantially water insoluble materials in an aqueous composition that is transparent or translucent. One way of including such oils in water while ensuring transparency is to formulate them in a microemulsion composition. However microemulsion compositions generally require high amounts of surfactants and solvents especially low molecular weight alcohol. It is thus a challenge to formulate a mouthwash composition that is on the one hand effective in killing microbes while on the other hand has a transparent/translucent appearance while being substantially free of low molecular weight alcohol.
