Abstract: Systems and methods are described for secure management of a data processing unit (“DPU”). In an example, a baseboard management controller (“BMC”) can provision a DPU. Provisioning can include configuring a local storage device for DPU storage and locking access to the DPU storage with an encrypted access key. To boot the DPU, the BMC can initiate DPU firmware on the DPU. The DPU firmware can retrieve the access key from the BMC and unlock the DPU storage with the access key. The DPU firmware can be configured to then delete the access key. Once the DPU storage is unlocked, the DPU firmware can load an operating system of the DPU. The BMC can be the only entity that retains the access key. To perform a secure wipe, instructions can be provided to the BMC to delete the access key, which renders the DPU storage and all data therein inaccessible.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed herein for using anomaly detection in timeseries data of user sentiment to detect incidents in computing systems and identify events within an enterprise. An anomaly detection system may receive social media messages that include a timestamp indicating when each message was published. The system may generate sentiment identifiers for the social media messages. The sentiment identifiers and timestamps associated with the social media messages may be used to generate a timeseries dataset for each type of sentiment identifier. The timeseries datasets may be input into an anomaly detection model to determine whether an anomaly has occurred. The system may retrieve textual data from the social media messages associated with the detected anomaly and may use the text to determine a computing system or event associated with the detected anomaly.

Abstract: Systems and methods of associating components of a surgical instrument for navigation-assisted surgery, and controlling the surgical instruments. A first association is generated between the end effector and the navigation array from an input based on an arrangement of tracking elements of the navigation array, and an identification signal. A second association is generated between a power source and the navigation array from a battery signal wirelessly transmitted from the power source that is indicative of current being drawn on the power source. The power source may be controlled based on a position and/or an orientation of the end effector and a pose of a patient tracker. Should the position of the end effector cross a predefined virtual boundary, a control signal wirelessly transmitted to the power source may alter the current being supplied to a motor. An inertial sensor may provide a movement signal used for generating an association.

Abstract: A level-shifting pulse latch is provided for a self-timed memory clock signal for a memory. The level-shifting pulse latch includes a system-power-domain-to-memory-power-domain level-shifter that inverts and level-shifts a system clock signal into an inverted version of the system clock signal. A pass transistor controls whether the inverted version of the system clock signal drives a memory-power-domain latch to produce the self-timed memory clock signal.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable media for a service manger to manage services on a wearable device are disclosed. The service manager remains active in memory and listens for requests for services. The service manager then determines which services to run and which to stop to respond to the requests for services. After running a service, the service manager calls the service to respond to the request and sends a response to the request to the sender of the request. The service manager may be resident on a different processor than a processor from which the requests for services originate. The service manager maintains priorities of the services to determine which services to stop or remove from memory.

Abstract: A user experience repository may contain base layouts and variant metadata for applications of an enterprise. An application design platform may receive, from a designer, an indication of a selected base layout for a selected application and interact with the designer to create a user experience variant (e.g., a page layout).

An enterprise application service platform may determine that a user is accessing the selected application and evaluate the custom logic of the assignment rule based on user parameters of the user accessing the selected application. In accordance with the evaluation, the system may arrange to provide the appropriate user experience variant to the user.

Abstract: A receiver device includes detection logic, error counter logic, and threshold logic. The detection detects frame errors in data frames received by a transmitter device. The error counter logic increments a first value of an error count responsive to each error signal, indicative of a frame error in a data frame, received from the detection logic. The error counter logic reduces the first value to a second value (non-zero value) for the error count responsive to receiving a decrement signal and a period marker signal corresponding to a programmable period. The error counter logic resets the first value or the second value of the error count to zero responsive to receiving a reset signal. The threshold logic compares a current value of the error count with a threshold number of frame errors and output an interrupt responsive to the current value satisfying the threshold number of frame errors.

Abstract: The Commissioning phase is usually the most Time/Labor intensive phase in the Fire Safety System life cycle as the process involves referring to the Building floor plan document (as provided by the Installer) and creation of Areas/Zones and carefully assigning each fire device (viz. Smoke/Heat detectors, MCP etc.) to the corresponding zones in the Panel configuration software to configure the Fire Panel. The overall process easily spans for multiple days based on the Building network complexity. The present invention provides a system, apparatus and method for rapid commissioning by providing a graphical interface in which device addresses can be uniquely allocated using an interactive screen. This avoids double address faults which can be time consuming to identify and rectify. Geographic information of the devices can also be identified and incorporated using the interactive screen.
