Abstract: Set forth are methods for preparing encoded three-dimensional objects. Magnetic particles or particles containing compounds that emit identifiable spectra, or combinations of multiple different magnetic and/or spectral emitting particles are embedded in the 3D object during formation. The particles can be added into the build material before construction, injected in a controlled manner into the 3D object during formation or added to the surface of the object during or after formation. The embedded material allows information regarding when and how the product was manufactured and the materials used to produce the product.

Abstract: Partners in an entity increasingly need to obtain information about data relating to communications of a terminal. A configuration method and a configuration device configure a terminal device able to be connected to a slice of a communication network. The slice is instantiated so as to route data between the terminal device and a service device in accordance with at least one routing criterion. The method is implemented by management equipment for managing the terminal device and able to communicate with the terminal device. The method includes storing a configuration context of the terminal device in memory, and transmitting, to the terminal device, a configuration message including the identifier of a proxy connection device and the identifier of the network slice.
