Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media for implementing confidential computing of one or more computing systems and/or devices using component authentication and data encryption with integrity and anti-replay mechanisms are disclosed. In some examples, the systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media described herein can perform various techniques, including one or more secure boot processes, component and data authentication, and data encryption with integrity and anti-replay, among other secure techniques. One implementation may include executing secure boot process based on authentication of a device identifier stored in a secure physical object of a processing device. Another implementation may include encrypting and storing a counter value corresponding to a cache line and generating an integrity tag value replacing error correction code bits associated with the cache line with the generated cache line tag value.

Abstract: A method for authorizing access to one or more secured computer resources includes obfuscating a reference biometric vector into an obfuscated reference biometric vector using a similarity-preserving obfuscation. An authentication biometric vector is obfuscated into an obfuscated authentication biometric vector using the similarity-preserving obfuscation. A similarity of the obfuscated authentication biometric vector and the obfuscated reference biometric vector is tested. Based on the similarity being within an authentication threshold, access to the one or more secured computer resources is authorized.

Abstract: A bonding apparatus includes a stage on which a substrate is seated, a gantry installed above the stage, a bonding unit for bonding a chip to the substrate while moving along the gantry, a first temperature sensor installed on the bonding unit and providing a first temperature value of the bonding unit, a second temperature sensor installed at a periphery of the bonding apparatus and providing a second temperature value of an atmospheric temperature at the periphery of the bonding apparatus, and a control part causing the bonding unit to be aligned with a bonding position on the substrate, controlling the bonding unit to allow the bonding unit to bond the chip at the bonding position, and determining a movement distance of the bonding unit based on a weighted sum of the first temperature value and the second temperature value.

Abstract: A downhole shifter tool assembly configured to operate a downhole tool. The shifter tool assembly comprises a anchor tool, an extension tool, a shifting key, and a standoff spacer. The standoff spacer is configured to locate the shifter tool assembly at a reference position by contacting an isolation member on the downhole tool. An anchoring mechanism within the anchor tool can anchor the shifter tool assembly in the reference position. An extend-retract mechanism within the extension tool can extend move the shifting key on a shifting tool into engagement with a shifting profile on the downhole tool and move the shifting profile to a second position. The downhole tool can be operated by the shifting key moving the shifting profile from an initial position to the second position.

Abstract: A tubing hanger includes a hanger connection profile positioned along a borehole of the tubing hanger and a first landing profile positioned along the borehole and above the hanger connection profile. The first landing profile includes first threads including a first thread feature configured to secure a first check valve to the tubing hanger for isolating a production tubing. The tubing hanger further includes a second landing profile positioned along the borehole and above the first landing profile, the second landing profile including second threads including a second thread feature. The second thread feature is larger than the first thread feature and is configured to secure a second check valve to the tubing hanger for further isolating the production tubing.

Abstract: Systems and methods for landing a tubing hanger in a wellhead and then orienting a tree (or spool, or flowline connection body) relative to the tubing hanger while landing the tree on the wellhead are provided. This alignment is accomplished without the use of either a tubing spool or a BOP stack with an orientation pin. The tubing hanger alignment devices may be used to orientate the tree as the tree is landed so that the couplings and stabs between the tree and the tubing hanger line up with each other just at the moment of landing.
