  • Patent number: 11947427
    Abstract: A method, an electronic device, and a computer program product for storage management are provided. The method includes: acquiring a lock attribute record in a lock attribute record chain from a data protection network for backing up data, data protection servers of the data protection network reaching a consensus on the lock attribute record chain, the lock attribute record including a first attribute value of an attribute of a lock operation, the lock operation being used for preventing a backup of the data stored in a storage server from being tampered with; acquiring, based on the lock attribute record, a second attribute value of the attribute of the lock operation from the storage server; and generating, based on determining that the first attribute value does not match the second attribute value, an alarm indicating that the backup is tampered with. This solution can better prevent data from being tampered with.

  • Patent number: 11948736
    Abstract: A superconducting magnet system having two-stage quenching. A primary coil assembly includes a coil section configured to be superconducting when conducting current below a first critical current. An EMI shielding coil assembly includes a coil section configured to be superconducting when conducting current below a second critical current, which is electrically coupled to a variable resistor configured to be superconducting when conducting current below a third critical current and to be non-superconducting when conducting current at or above the third critical current that is less than both the first and second critical currents. Generating a magnetic flux within the EMI shielding coil assembly causes the current conducted through the variable resistor to exceed the third critical current, quenching the variable resistor and generating heat. The EMI shielding coil assembly is disposed such that the heat from the variable resistor quenches the primary coil assembly.

  • Patent number: 11948571
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed capable of parsing a spoken utterance into a natural language request and a speech audio segment, where the natural language request directs the system to use the speech audio segment as a new wakeword. In response to this wakeword assignment directive, the system and method are further capable of immediately building a new wakeword spotter to activate the device upon matching the new wakeword in the input audio. Different approaches to promptly building a new wakeword spotter are described. Variations of wakeword assignment directives can make the new wakeword public or private. They can also add the new wakeword to earlier wakewords, or replace earlier wakewords.

  • Patent number: 11949650
    Abstract: A system and method for improving network performance of DNS queries. The system includes a terminal which receives DNS queries from a customer premise equipment (CPE), and supplies matching DNS records in response to the queries. The terminal monitors all traffic from the CPE and generates a preload list containing domains and a time schedule at which name resolution should be requested for the domains. A DNS preload client in the CPE receives the preload list from the terminal, and submits preload DNS queries for name resolution of domains contained in the preload list at times specified in the time schedule. Preload records supplied in response to the preload DNS queries are stored by the CPE and used to resolve DNS queries from applications installed on the CPE.
