Patent number: 10741059Abstract: Systems and methods for handling latent anomalies in field devices are described herein. When an anomaly is detected, the system can earmark the presence of the detected anomaly with a flag or other notification, and announce the existence of the anomaly to a user. In some embodiments, a self-test may be distributed to devices in the field that may be potentially affected by the latent anomaly so that those devices can monitor for the presence of the anomaly and take appropriate action if detected.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2019Date of Patent: August 11, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Tyler Moore, Kelly Veit, Joseph Jaoudi, Geo Hsu, David Wang, David Liem, Terry Simons, Michael Kwiatkowski

Patent number: 9826399Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates wireless network access. The system includes a trusted network access and tunneling service (TNATS) associated with a ubiquitous static service set identifier (SSID). The system also includes a proximate wireless access point (WAP). During operation, the system enables the TNATS on the proximate WAP, which then broadcasts the ubiquitous static SSID. Next, the proximate WAP receives a request from a guest device to access the TNATS through the proximate WAP. The proximate WAP then initiates an authentication process with the TNATS for a user of the guest device. If the authentication succeeds, the proximate WAP allows the guest device to access a network through the proximate WAP.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2013Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Jason P. Peterson, M. Terry Simons

Patent number: 7724704Abstract: This specification describes a system and method that can offer, among other advantages, a technique for resource assignment that involves obtaining a group of resources, repeatedly selecting a resource from the group of resources until a resource that is available is selected, and associating a client or process with that resource. An example of a method according to the technique includes obtaining a group of VLANs for assignment to a client based on client identity, selecting a first choice from the group of VLANs, selecting a next choice from the group of VLANs if the first choice is unavailable, and connecting the client to the selected VLAN. The client identity may include, by way of example but not limitation, a MAC address, an SSID, or some other known or convenient way to identify the client. A system constructed according to the technique may include, by way of example but not limitation, memory, a resource group name decoder, a value calculator, an index calculator, and a selector.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2006Date of Patent: May 25, 2010Assignee: Beiden Inc.Inventors: Michael Terry Simons, David Bradburn Aragon

Patent number: 5711359Abstract: A venetian blind includes replaceable ladder cord covers. The ladder cord covers may be constructed in a variety of widths to achieve an appropriate ornamental appearance, as well as being provided with decorative surfaces having a variety of motifs. The ladder cord covers may be color coordinated with the venetian blind to enhance its aesthetic appeal. The ladder cord covers are formed as elongated strips which are removably attachable by the user to the ladder cords when and as desired.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 1995Date of Patent: January 27, 1998Assignee: Jencraft CorporationInventors: Terry Simon, Merrill Gitkin
