Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing firewall functionalities, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing high availability (“HA”) web application firewall (“WAF”) functionalities. In various embodiments, a first computing system might monitor network communications between a client and a server providing access to software applications, and might determine whether latency has been introduced as a result of at least one first WAF container having been launched and whether any introduced latency exceeds a predetermined threshold, each first WAF container being tuned to a corresponding software application and protecting the software application from network attacks. Based on a determination that latency has been introduced and based on a determination that the introduced latency exceeds the predetermined threshold, one or more second WAF containers may be launched, each being tuned to the corresponding software application.

Abstract: Methods and controllers for driving a light-collimating film including elongated chambers of bistable electrophoretic fluids. The light-collimating films are suitable to control the amount and/or direction of light incident to a transmissive substrate. Such films may be integrated into devices, such as LCD displays, to provide a zone of privacy for a user viewing the LCD display. Because the light-collimating film is switchable, it allows a user to alter the collimation of the emitted light on demand. Because the films are bistable, they do not require additional power after they have been switched to a display state.

Abstract: Low-complexity message formats and procedures are disclosed, greatly simplifying the task of user devices in recognizing downlink messages in 5G/6G. A user device, not requiring high performance or low latency, may request a “custom search-space” in which downlink messages may be transmitted by the base station, thereby greatly reducing the calculation overhead of the user device. In addition, message formats are disclosed that may enable rapid identification of relevant messages, and rejection of other messages, without performing a “blind search” and other arduous procedures. In addition, messaging protocols are disclosed that may avoid unnecessary control signaling, thereby saving time and energy. Low-cost wireless devices may be enabled by such low-complexity options in future wireless networks.

Abstract: One example method includes moving a volume from a source server to a target server. In one example, the volume is moved and the need to copy the source data is eliminated. The volume to be moved is selected and metadata associated with the save sets stored on the volume is exported to a volume bootstrap, which is also stored on the selected volume. The volume is mounted or attached to the target server and the metadata is imported from the volume bootstrap. The volume is made read/write and is moved from the source server to the target server.

Abstract: An electronic training system includes a set of external response sensors and a set of internal response sensors, and control circuitry. The control circuitry is configured to track locomotion and body movements of a user from the set of external response sensors in a sporting event, and electrical brain activity and physiological changes in a body of the user from the set of internal response sensors in a sporting event. Tracked data in the sporting event is annotated as period-of-relevance and period-of-irrelevance. A first sports performance state is assigned to the user for the sporting event based on a combination of a user feedback and sports statistics. The control circuitry outputs a first integrated visual motion model on a display device based on annotated tracked data in the period-of-relevance such that the first sports performance state of the user for the sporting event is discernible by a viewer.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for protecting data in a memory of an integrated circuit (IC). A process token is obtained in a special purpose IC from a host that is external to and communicatively connected to the special purpose IC. The process token is stored in a first memory portion of the special purpose IC. In response to receiving a processing request from the host, the processing request is processed, and data generated by processing the processing request is written in a second memory portion of the special purpose IC. When a read request is received to read the data in the second memory portion, a determination is made whether the read request includes a read token that matches the previously stored process token. If the read token matches the process token, the data in the second memory portion may be returned to the host.
