Abstract: An enterprise platform may retrieve, from a collaboration data store, information about a selected enterprise team. The enterprise platform may then transmit, from a set of integration tools to a workflow tool of a remote cloud-based environment, a data payload including a notification request associated with a channel. The enterprise platform may also transmit, from a runtime environment to a business communication platform of the cloud-based environment, a request to post a notification to the channel and arrange for a member of the selected enterprise team to receive an adaptive information card, pushed by the business communication platform via the channel, containing information associated with at least one of the integration tools. The member who receives the adaptive information card may also, via selection of a graphical icon on the card, respond to the business communication platform via bi-directional communication.

Abstract: Techniques for optimizing retrieval of operational parameters for a plurality of asset sets within a facility are described. In an example, a data retrieval request for retrieving operational parameters for a first asset set and a second asset set within a facility is received. A first server and a second server configured to respectively monitor and control operations of the first asset set and the second asset set are then identified. A first data retrieval request and a second data retrieval request are then generated for retrieving the operational parameters for the first asset set and the second asset set. The first data retrieval request and the second data retrieval request are then transmitted to the first server and the second server, respectively. The operational parameters for the first asset set and the second asset set are then received.

Abstract: Cloud networks can be dynamically deployed for edge computing environments. For example, a control plane of a computing environment can detect a set of device identifiers and a set of priority levels for data transmitted by a set of edge devices in the computing environment. Each device identifier can correspond to an edge device in the set of edge devices. A network deployment service of the control plane can determine a network weight for the set of edge devices based on a set of device identifiers and the set of priority levels. The network deployment service can determine an adjustment to a virtual gateway based on the network weight. The virtual gateway can transmit data from the set of edge devices to a compute node in the computing environment. The network deployment service can execute the adjustment to the virtual gateway.

Abstract: A computer system traces an original electronic design automation (EDA) implementation process for electronic hardware designs. The original EDA implementation process includes multiple subprocesses to convert a hardware model to a physically-realized electronic circuit. The system inputs a cryptographic key and design information that includes the hardware model, constraints, properties, implementation settings, and other directives for directing the conversion. The cryptographic key and design information are processed to generate a sequence of instructions to execute and provide traceability of each subprocess.

Abstract: Disclosed implementations include a method of detecting attacks on Machine Learning (ML) models by applying the concept of anomaly detection based on the internal state of the model being protected. Instead of looking at the input or output data directly, disclosed implementation look at the internal state of the hidden layers of a neural network of the model after processing of data. By examining how different layers within a neural network model are behaving an inference can be made as to whether the data that produced the observed state is anomalous (and thus possibly part of an attack on the model).

Abstract: Disclosed herein are optical networks and nodes, including a head-end node comprising a controller and a line module. The line module comprises a first processor and first memory storing instructions that when executed by the first processor cause the first processor to receive fault information, generate a fault packet and a fault trigger request that include a sequence number, a sequence reset time, and the fault information, and send the fault packet via a first network path and the fault trigger request via a second network path to the controller. The controller comprises a second processor, second memory storing second instructions, and packet forwarding circuitry configured to receive and automatically forward the fault packet to a tail-end optical node. The second instructions cause the second processor to receive the fault trigger request, process the fault trigger request, and send the fault trigger request to the tail end optical node.

Abstract: An I/O server service interfaces with multiple containerized controller services each implementing the same control routine to control the same portion of the same plant. The I/O server service may provide the same controller inputs to each of the containerized controller services (e.g., representing measurements obtained by field devices and transmitted by the field devices to the I/O server service). Each containerized controller service executes the same control routine to generate a set of controller outputs. The I/O server service receives each set of controller outputs and forwards an “active” set to the appropriate field devices. The I/O server service may utilize a quality-of-service metric to determine which controller outputs and/or I/O channel is “active.” The I/O server service and other services, such as an orchestrator service, may continuously evaluate performance and resource utilization in the control system, and may dynamically activate and deactivate controller services as appropriate.

Abstract: An analysis server acquires observation information including a transmission source IP address, a transmission source MAC address, a transmission destination IP address, and a transmission destination MAC address in communication from each of sensing devices. The analysis server estimates a topology of a network on the basis of the acquired observation information. On the basis of the estimated topology, an analysis server creates a monitoring list indicating communication that is a target for transmission of the observation information for each sensing device such that any one sensing device on a path of the communication transmits the observation information of the communication for each piece of communication in the network, and transmits the monitoring list to the sensing device. Thereafter, each sensing device transmits the observation information of the communication to the analysis server on the basis of the monitoring list.
