  • Patent number: 11883863
    Abstract: Auger cleaned inaccessible floor systems to maximize operational capacity of inaccessible floors. The auger cleaned inaccessible floor system includes a floor having at least one channel beneath the lowest point of the floor extending horizontally at least half the length of the longest dimension of the floor and adapted for receiving an auger cleaner, at least one gate complex that provides fluid communication between the channel and at least one box and further provides access to the floor for the auger cleaner, and at least one box to deliver the auger cleaner to the channel and adapted for equalizing pressure when the inaccessible floor is under water to deliver an auger cleaner for cleaning. Thus, the auger cleaned inaccessible floor system allows cleaning of the inaccessible floor while the inaccessible floor system is in operation increasing the yield from the inaccessible floor system.

  • Patent number: 11889593
    Abstract: In a wireless communication network, an Edge Enablement Client (EEC) in a UE Gateway (GW) exchanges EDGE-5 signaling with a user app and exchanges EDGE-1 signaling with a Gateway Enablement Server (GES) in the GW. The GES exchanges EDGE-9 signaling with an Edge Enablement Server (EES) in an Edge Data Network (EDN) and exchanges EDGE-3 signaling with a Gateway Application Server (GAS) in the GW. The GAS exchanges user data between the user app and an Edge Application Server (EAS) in the EDN responsive to the EDGE-3 signaling. The EES exchanges additional EDGE-3 signaling with the EAS. The EAS exchanges the user data between the GAS and a network core responsive to the additional EDGE-3 signaling. The core exchanges the user with the AS and transfers network information for the exchange to a Distributed Ledger (DL) node. The DL node determines trust based on the network information.

  • Patent number: 11887823
    Abstract: Systems and methods for material processing using wafer scale waves of precisely controlled electrons in a DC plasma is presented. A surface floating potential of a substrate placed atop a stage in a positive column of the DC plasma is adjusted and maintained to a reference potential. A periodic biasing signal referenced to the reference potential is capacitively coupled to the stage to control a surface potential at the substrate according to: an active phase for provision of kinetic energy to free electrons in the DC plasma for activation of targeted bonds at the surface of the substrate; a neutralization phase for repelling of the free electrons from the surface of the substrate; and an initialization phase for restoring an initial condition of the surface floating potential.

  • Patent number: 11888870
    Abstract: Embodiments detect cyberattack campaigns against multiple cloud tenants by analyzing activity data to find sharing anomalies. Data that appears benign in a single tenant's activities may indicate an attack when the same or similar data is also found for additional tenants. Attack detection may depend on activity time frames, on how similar certain activities of different tenants are to one another, on how unusual it is for different tenants to share an activity, and on other factors. Sharing anomaly analysis may utilize hypergeometric probabilities or other statistical measures. Detection avoidance attempts using entity randomization are revealed and thwarted. Authorized vendors may be recognized, mooting anomalousness. Although data from multiple tenants is analyzed together for sharing anomalies while monitoring for attacks, tenant confidentiality and privacy are respected through technical and legal mechanisms. Mitigation is performed in response to an attack indication.

  • Patent number: 11886526
    Abstract: Methods and systems as described herein may enable customized navigation flow for websites/applications. Navigation flows (e.g., the pages, user interfaces, views, etc. that are displayed to a user) may be customized for each user. Navigation parameters may be generated for a user and may indicate a customized navigation flow for the user. The navigation parameters may indicate one or more pages of a website/application and an order that each of the one or more pages should be displayed to the user. The navigation parameters may indicate a trigger for each page. A trigger may indicate an action and/or event that causes a change in display to the next page in the navigation flow. Navigation parameters may be shared between devices, which may enable the user to experience the same navigation flow across multiple websites/applications.

  • Patent number: 11889472
    Abstract: A wireless communication network pages a wireless communication device over Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) access points. To send the page, a WIFI gateway identifies WIFI networks that serve the wireless user device. The WIFI gateway determines individual ones of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) access points to page the wireless user device based on the individual ones of the WIFI networks that serve the wireless user device. The WIFI gateway indicates the OFDM access points to a paging system. The paging system receives a page for the wireless user device and responsively transfers the page to a current one of the OFDM access points indicated by the WIFI gateway. The current one of the OFDM access points receives the page and wirelessly transfers the page to the wireless user device.
