Abstract: The disclosed exemplary embodiments include computer-implemented systems, devices, and processes that securely distribute digital assets within a computing environment using permissioned distributed ledgers. For example, an apparatus may receive, from a computing system, an allocation request, a first digital signature applied to the allocation request, and a second digital signature applied to the allocation request and to the first digital signature. Based on a validation of the first and second digital signatures, the apparatus may approve the allocation request and allocate a digital asset to the first device in accordance with the approved allocation request. The apparatus may also perform operations that record a public key and asset data identifying a digital asset onto a distributed ledger, and may generate and transmit, to the first device, confirmation data indicative of the allocation of the digital asset to the first device.

Abstract: The disclosed exemplary embodiments include computer-implemented systems, devices, and processes that securely manage and regenerate cryptographic keys using permissioned distributed ledgers. For example, a device may receive, from a first computing system, data indicative of a recordation of a first public key onto a distributed ledger. Based on an occurrence of a regeneration condition, the device may transmit, to a second computing system, a second public key and a first digital signature, and the second computing system may validate the first digital signature, apply a second digital signature to the second public key, and transmit the second public key and the digital signatures to the first computing system. The device also receives, from the first computing system, additional data indicative of a recordation of the second public key onto the distributed ledger, and based on the additional data, the device may invalidate the first private key.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a high throughput clip bonding tool or system which is flexible and easily adapts to different clip bond pitches or sizes. The clip bonding system may be an integrated system with various modules, including a clip singulation module, a feeder module, a transfer module and a clip attach module within a shared footprint. For example, an incoming clip source may be fed to the clip singulation module for clip singulation before the singulated clips are transferred by the feeder and transfer modules to a clip presentation area for clip alignment before pickup. A pickup tool of the clip attach module is configured to facilitate pickup and attachment of clips onto the semiconductor packages to be clip bonded. For example, the pickup head is programmable to facilitate clip bonding process of different applications which may require clips and packages with different sizes.

Abstract: Computer-implemented techniques for recipient session attribution in an online service. When the techniques are implemented in the context of an online service in which end-users are alerted about the online end-user actions of other end-users, the impact of the online actions on the online session activity of the recipients of the alerts can be measured post-hoc, after the online actions have been taken and the online sessions have been conducted. The techniques may be implemented in the context of a single-randomization AB experiment with the online service to measure the recipient session impact of the treatment feature of the experiment where the end-user action under test of the experiment is an alert-triggering action.

Abstract: An online social networking system collects data relating to members, and clusters the data into a plurality of clusters. The system identifies anomalous activity by a member in a cluster, and predicts an update to a profile of the member based on the identified anomalous activity of the member. The system presents to the member a proposed update to the profile of the member based on the prediction, receives input from the member in response to the proposed update, and updates the profile of the member based on the input received from the member.
