Patent number: 11354453Abstract: An encryption device includes a counter, an encryption/decryption unit, and a timer. The counter is configured to generate a first timestamp for a first time. The encryption/decryption unit is configured to concatenate security data and the first timestamp, encrypt the concatenated data into encryption data, transmit the encryption data to a memory device, and decrypt read data transmitted from the memory device into decryption data. The timer is configured to inform the counter and the encryption/decryption unit that a time elapses from the first time to a second time such that the counter generates a second timestamp for the second time and the encryption/decryption unit decrypts the read data into the decryption data. Checking logic implemented by the encryption device is configured to check whether a decryption timestamp of the decryption data is identical to the first timestamp.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2018Date of Patent: June 7, 2022Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ingoo Heo, Jaechul Park, Youngjin Chung, Hong-Mook Choi

Patent number: 11275763Abstract: A content management system synchronizes content items across client computing systems connected by a network. Each client device has a storage allocation for synchronized shared content items. If the storage allocation for shared content items on a client device is exceeded by the request to add or edit a content item such that it is enlarged, or open a large content item remote to the client device, a client application or the host of content management system selects content items to remove from residence on the client device but keep remotely on content management system. Upon removal of the selected content items, the client application creates shadow items, representing the content item but only containing the metadata of the content item. This creates sufficient space for the initial request to be completed while maintaining user access to all synchronized shared content items.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2019Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventor: Benjamin Zeis Newhouse

Patent number: 11238103Abstract: In some aspects, a query for one or more items is received. The query includes a plurality of terms. It is determined that a search result candidate is semantically similar to the query based at least in part on a distance between a first vector that represents the query and a second vector that represents the search result candidate in semantic space. The first vector and the second vector can each correspond to a single vector of binary values. Based at least in part on the determining that the search result candidate is semantically similar to the query, the search result candidate may be caused to be displayed. The search result candidate can include at least a first term that has a same meaning as at least a second term of the query, and the first term and the second term may have a different structure.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2019Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: EBAY INC.Inventors: Qing Lu, Aimin Guo, Hao Zhang
