Patent number: 11416449Abstract: The present invention provides a method of synchronous deletion for distributed storage system. According to the present invention, after a first host accesses one or more first datum, a first data list and a second data list will be created in a blockchain network corresponding to the modification of the data in the first host. Then the first data list and the second data list are used to update a second host. Accordingly, by taking advantages of the indestructibility of the blockchain technology, the existence of the first data list and the second data list will be maintained. Then the second data accessed by the second host will still be consistent even the first host has modified them. In addition, a hardware safety module can be further adopted to ensure the correctness of the execution file in the second host.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2020Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignee: National Applied Research LaboratoriesInventors: Lo-Yao Yeh, Peggy Joy Lu, Chia-Hsien Hung

Patent number: 11409760Abstract: An operations integration processor generating tag names from an array of objects in a language-independent data format different than a tag format for integration with a tag-based control and data acquisition system. The operations integration processor receives a response from a web service and parses the response to identify one or more objects and corresponding values in the array contained in the response. The response includes an array of objects and is in a language-independent data format different than a tag format. The processor configures a selected object of the array to act as a unique index for the array of objects and generates one or more tag names from the parsed response. The tag names each represent a tag having at least one of an object and a value associated with it based on the information provided in the response. The generated tag names include the selected object in an array index part thereof.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2018Date of Patent: August 9, 2022Assignee: AVEVA SOFTWARE, LLCInventors: Alvaro Martinez, John Ralph Bartlett, Yuk Ming Fong
