  • Publication number: 20220326683
    Abstract: The exemplified methods and systems facilitate manufacturing of a new class of mechanical, loading-bearing components having optimized stress/strain three-dimensional meta-structure structures (also referred to herein as “Meshagons”) as finite-element-based 3D volumetric mesh structures. The resulting three-dimensional meta-structure structures provide high strength, ultra-light connectivity, with programmable interlinkage properties (e.g., density/porosity of linkages).

  • Patent number: 6292838
    Abstract: A system and method for determining a MAC layer address of a network interface on a remote device, based on an IP address associated with the same network interface on the remote device. The disclosed system identifies an internetworking device, for example a router, that is attached to the remote subnet to which the network interface of the remote device is attached. The system identifies the network interface of the router that is attached to the remote subnet, and obtains the MAC address of that network interface from an address resolution protocol (ARP) cache associated with it. The system transmits a series of request packets having an IP destination address equal to the provided IP address of the remote device, each including a time to live value, indicating a maximum number of network hops over which each particular packet may be forwarded. The time to live values of the request packets result in each successive request packet being forwarded one hop further along the path to the remote device.

  • Patent number: 5999948
    Abstract: One or more form descriptions are expressed in the form description language (FDL) and are entered into an FDL file. The FDL file is then registered with a dynamic forms software module using a dynamic forms API. Upon registration, the file is parsed and software "specification" objects containing a data from the file or added to the internal catalogue of compiled form descriptions. When the application requests a form to be displayed, the dynamic form software finds the entry for the form in the catalogue, constructs the form using the information from the specification objects, and displays the information to the user. The form construction process includes the selection of widgets, the binding of each widget to a data source, the layout and alignment of all widgets, and the construction of rule objects that respond to the users interaction with the form and validate the users input.
