Abstract: Methods and systems for secure authentication of a first device through attestation by one or more other devices are described herein. A server may receive, from an untrusted client device, a request for access to one or more services associated with the server. The server may generate a challenge code. The server may send, to the untrusted client device, a request for attestation of the untrusted client device. The server may receive, from a trusted client device, an indication that the trusted client device attests to an identity of the untrusted client device. Based on the indication that the trusted client device attests to the identity of the untrusted client device, the server may grant, to the untrusted client device, access to the one or more services associated with the server.

Abstract: An IMS device is provided that includes at least one surface, first and second pluralities of electrodes disposed on the surface, and an ion path having first and second accumulation regions and a separation region. The IMS device is configured to receive, guide, temporally separate, and discharge ions. Each accumulation region is configured to switch between accumulation and release states in which ions are accumulated and released therefrom, respectively. The separation region is positioned downstream of the first accumulation region and configured to temporally separate ions based on mobility. The first accumulation region is synchronized with a downstream mass filter while the second accumulation region is dependent upon the state of a gating element, which is positioned downstream of the IMS device and configured to control the flow of ions to a mass analyzer. A method in accordance with the foregoing is also provided.

Abstract: An illustrative data storage management system enables a Tenant to retain control over criteria for protecting the Tenant's data, and hides details of the Service Provider's infrastructure. The Service Provider may have many data centers, each one represented within the system by a Resource Pool with attributes that reflect the infrastructure resources of the corresponding data center. A system analysis, which is triggered by the Tenant's choices for data protection, keys in on a suitable Resource Pool. The system analysis identifies suitable system resources within the Resource Pool and associates them to the data source. Subsequent data protection jobs invoke proper system components based on the associations created by the system analysis. In some embodiments, the system will invoke infrastructure resources created on demand when a data protection job is initiated rather than being pre-existing resources.

Abstract: Various embodiments include a system or platform that uses electrochemistry to upcycle waste products and low-value minerals into valuable, carbon dioxide (CO2)-neutral materials. Various embodiments may include systems and/or methods for processing material inputs using an electrochemical reactor. Various embodiments may include systems, methods, and/or devices for capturing and sequestering carbon dioxide (CO2) while producing valuable co-products.

Abstract: A method for reducing latency and increasing throughput in a reconfigurable computing system includes receiving a compute graph for execution on a reconfigurable dataflow processor comprising a grid of compute units and grid of memory units interconnected with a switching array. The compute graph includes a node specifying an operation on a tensor. The node may be split into multiple nodes that each specify the operation on a distinctive portion of the tensor to produce a first modified compute graph. The first modified compute graph may be executed. In addition, the multiple nodes may be within a single meta-pipeline stage and may be processed in parallel. Furthermore, the compute graph may further comprise a separate node for gathering the distinctive portions of the tensor into a complete tensor, to produce a second modified compute graph.

Abstract: Antiviral therapeutic compounds and compositions that may be used in methods of preventing and/or treating infection(s) caused by coronaviruses or influenza viruses.

Abstract: The method S100 can include: determining a remote operation request S110; optionally determining a priority of the remote operation request S120; providing vehicle data to a remote operator S130; responding to the remote operation request S140; and optionally training a model based on the response S150. However, the method S100 can additionally or alternatively include any other suitable elements. The method S100 functions to facilitate remote assistance of a vehicle operating within a rail network (e.g., operation of unmanned vehicles within restricted track regions). Additionally or alternatively, the system can function to facilitate remote validation/verification of vehicle operations and/or rail infrastructure status.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for adaptively training machine learning models for auto-segmentation of medical images. A system executes a segmentation model that receives a medical image as input and generates an initial segmentation of the medical image for a radiotherapy treatment. The system identifies a corrected segmentation corresponding to the initial segmentation generated in response to an input at a user interface presenting the initial segmentation. The system fine-tunes the segmentation model based on the medical image and the corrected segmentation to generate a fine-tuned segmentation model.

Abstract: A method and system for mitigating against side channel attacks (SCA) that exploit speculative store-to-load forwarding is described. The method comprises conditioning store-to-load forwarding on the memory dependence predictor (MDP) being trained for that load instruction. Training involves identifying situations in which store-to-load forwarding could have been performed, but wasn't, and obversely, identifying situations in which store-to-load forwarding was performed but resulted in an error.

Abstract: Non-voice data is embedded in a voice bit stream that includes frames of voice bits by selecting a frame of voice bits to carry the non-voice data, placing non-voice identifier bits in a first portion of the voice bits in the selected frame, and placing the non-voice data in a second portion of the voice bits in the selected frame. The non-voice identifier bits are employed to reduce a perceived effect of the non-voice data on audible speech produced from the voice bit stream.
