Abstract: A storage rack apparatus including a locking mechanism that secures a bracket (10) to a supporting member such as a wall-mounted rail (48) or panel (54). A securing bar (36) is rotatably attached to the body (12) of the bracket and is rotatable between unlocked (FIGS. 3 and 6) and locked (FIGS. 4, 5, 7, and 8) positions.

Abstract: In interpreting a data record in a blockchain of a certain cryptographic asset, it is usually necessary to use the API of the node software provided by the developer of the software that devises the implementation method. However, since an input/output method of the API also differs depending on the implementation method, it is difficult to collect and analyze blockchain data of cryptographic assets according to a plurality of different implementation methods. The present invention provides a cryptographic asset blockchain processing apparatus or the like that collects blockchain data generated by a plurality of different implementation methods, converts the data into data that can be analyzed, and processes a transaction content such as a quantity, a unit price, and a partner of a transaction cryptographic asset into a standardized format, thereby improving convenience of analysis of a large amount of data for an accounting audit or the like.

Abstract: This document describes systems and techniques for a hardware-based save-and-restore controller in an SoC. The described systems and techniques can automatically save and restore access control configurations (e.g., register states) of IP subsystems during a power-down and a power-up sequence, respectively. The save operation is initiated by a local save-and-restore (L SAR) controller and performed by the IP subsystems writing the configuration values to a central save-and-restore (C-SAR) controller before powering down a power domain. The C-SAR controller saves the configuration information in a memory located in an always-on power domain. The described systems and techniques initiate, via the L SAR controller, a restore operation as part of the power-up sequence. In this way, the described systems and techniques provide scalable save-and-restore services, support a large number of power domains, and allow a variable number of access control configurations to be saved and restored.
