Abstract: An authentication method includes assigning a risk status to a request received from a remote interaction system, transmitting a notification communication to a device associated with the request, monitoring interaction data from an interaction network, and identifying, from the monitored interaction data, authentication interaction information, the authentication interaction information including a coded sequence and a predetermined authentication identifier. The authentication method also includes comparing the coded sequence in the authentication interaction information to an expected coded sequence and transmitting a verification communication after determining the coded sequence in the authentication interaction information matches the expected coded sequence.
Abstract: Apparatus, systems, methods, and the like, for autonomous scaling of security and other network services through initialization of a service from a network service device and/or migration of such services from one service device to another is provided. Such network scaling may allow for migration of services from existing service edges to other service edges. A security management system may coordinate the migration of services provided to a secondary network from one or more service edges to another, separate service edge while providing session synchronization during the migration. To migrate the services from the first service edge to a second service edge, a session table may be shared between the service edges and the first and second service edges may advertise service routes or endpoints with one or more priority values to control or otherwise determine which service edge is selected by a service-receiving device to receive the services.

Abstract: A nicotine lozenge includes a body that is partially or wholly receivable in an oral cavity. The body includes a soluble-fiber matrix and nicotine or a derivative thereof dispersed in the soluble-fiber matrix. A nicotine lozenge may include at least 40 weight percent of soluble fiber. Soluble fiber in a nicotine lozenge may include maltodextrin. The nicotine lozenge is adapted to release the nicotine or a derivative thereof from the body when the body is received within the oral cavity of an adult consumer and exposed to saliva. A method of making nicotine lozenges includes forming a molten mixture of at least 40 weight percent soluble fiber, nicotine, and less than 15 weight percent water while maintaining a mixture temperature of less than 150° C. and portioning the molten mixture into a plurality of nicotine lozenges. The ingredients can be mixed to form the molten mixture in an extruder.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for implementing adaptable embedded search engine functionality. In an aspect, a shared SERP system receives a user search query from a first search utility among a plurality of search utilities, which is associated with corresponding apps that are different from each other. A router of the shared SERP system provides the user search query and location information to a first query builder among one or more query builders of the shared SERP system. The first query builder constructs a query request corresponding to the user search query, based on the provided user search query and location information. A first query executor among one or more query executors of the shared SERP system executes the query request to produce search results. A component renderer of the shared SERP system renders one or more UX components within the first SERP, based on the search results.

Abstract: A method is provided that may include activating a converter coupled with at least one energy storage device, one or more inverters, and one or more of a load or a charging input. The converter may be activated based on (a) demand characteristics of the one or more of the load or the charging input and (b) supply characteristics of the at least one energy storage device. The converter may be activated to change a voltage that may be supplied to the load or that may be supplied by the charging input via the inverter.
Abstract: A vehicle comprises a camera system located on the vehicle and oriented to capture images in an imaged area along a travel path of the vehicle, a navigation system comprising map data, and a siren is located on the vehicle and configured to output different audible sounds in a plurality of siren modes. A controller processes the images that are captured with the camera system and the map data, and identifies an event based on the processed images and classifies the event as one of a plurality of stored events. The controller selectively activates the siren in one of the plurality of siren modes based on the classified event.
Abstract: A bag having a front wall, back wall, first side wall, second side wall, top end, and bottom end; where at least one of a first edge of the first side wall and a first edge of the front wall and a first edge of the back wall and a first edge of the second side wall are sealed to form a sealed corner, where the sealed corner is heat sealed; where the bag is adapted to form a cube shape when filled with a filling material and both the top and bottom end of the bag are sealed; and where each of the front, back, first side, and second side wall include (i) a first woven layer including polyethylene, polypropylene, or a combination thereof; and (ii) a second film layer laminated to the first layer, said second layer including polyethylene, polypropylene, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: Carbon-neutral fuels are produced from aragonite in a solar thermal decomposition process in which the carbon dioxide generated from the aragonite is catalytically converted to methane, ethanol, or Fischer-Tropsch liquids. Advantageously, heat from the aragonite production can be recovered and used in downstream processes to thereby minimize the carbon footprint of the fuel production.

Abstract: It may be desirable for a remote advisor to request an autonomous vehicle to relocate to a target relocation pose using a freespace planner that has fewer constraints than the structured planner that is used for normal driving. The autonomous vehicle planning stack can include a remote vehicle interface, which can serve as the application programming interface for remote requestors to request relocation of the autonomous vehicle. The remote vehicle interface may implement a relocation state machine to carry out different parts of a relocation session. A scenario manager may subscribe to the state of the relocation state machine. Based on the state, the scenario manager can request the freespace planner to generate an output plan for the target relocation pose and can orchestrate handoff between different motion planners to relocate the autonomous vehicle.
