Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a context aware client firewall. Various embodiments include intercepting all network traffic to and from a mobile device, deriving a static risk profile of the mobile device based on one or more parameters, determining a dynamic risk of the mobile device based on network flow attributes, and computing an overall risk for the network traffic based on the static risk profile and the dynamic risk. Network traffic can therefore be allowed or blocked based on the computed risk. The solution provides granular control to IT administrations to block network traffic based on parameters such as geolocation, network type, and various others described herein.

Abstract: An approach for managing workload deployment in a distributed network, including edge computing is provided. The approach includes deploying several modules, such as, EMM (energy management module), LDM (localized deployment manager) and EDM (edge deployment manager). These modules will be constantly monitoring and managing the energy consumption at the edge nodes under their purview and communicate with other modules to develop a holistic energy management system (e.g., energy policies, energy algorithms, energy plans, etc.) to ensure the most effective energy management of workload is implemented.

Abstract: A source code patch generation system uses the context of a buggy source code snippet of a source code program and a hint to predict a source code segment that repairs the buggy source code snippet. The hint is a source code segment that is semantically-similar to the buggy source code snippet where the similarity is based on a context of the buggy source code snippet. An autoregressive deep learning model uses the context of the buggy source code snippet and the hint to predict the most likely source code segment to repair the buggy source code snippet.

Abstract: Various examples of systems and methods are described herein in which multiple intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) are connected in a network. A software-defined network (SDN) controller may include a rule subsystem, a test mode subsystem, a packet inspection subsystem, and a validation subsystem. The rule subsystem may define a plurality of flow rules. A test mode subsystem may operate the SDN in a testing mode. A packet insertion subsystem may insert test packets within the SDN while the SDN is in the testing mode. The validation subsystem may validate or fail each flow rule depending on how the various test packets are handled.

Abstract: Techniques for communications in a multi-zone space are described. In an example, a system stores data indicating devices in zones of a space and data indicating zones that are associated with a communications session. A display in a zone presents graphical user interface indicating the zones associated with the communications session. Incoming audio data can be mixed with audio data detected from another participating zone and a speaker in the zone can output this audio data. Audio data detected from the participating zone can also be mixed and sent to a remote device that is an endpoint of the communications session.

Abstract: A dispenser having a pedal actuator. The dispenser includes a valve operatively connected to a nozzle and which moves from a closed position to an open position to dispense an item, a first actuator operatively connected to the nozzle, and a second actuator located below the first actuator and operatively connected to the nozzle. The dispenser can be electro-mechanical and can include components capable of retrofitting onto existing dispensers.

Abstract: Techniques for dynamic profile data ingestion are described. The system may process profile data associated with one device, such as a mobile device, to associate it with another device, such as a vehicle. For example, when a connection is made between the first device and the second device, the profile data associated with the first device may be associated with the second device, in a manner using a remote system. The remote system may temporarily associate the profile data with the second device, enabling the system to interpret a command using the profile data.

Abstract: A label printing module can be configured to perform at least two actions in response to a request to create a label for an item. The label printing module can create a print job that will produce a physical label for the item. In addition, the label printing module can cause a digital label to be created and stored in a digital label database, which can be accessible via the Internet. The digital label can include an identifier that is uniquely associated with the item to which the physical label corresponds. The digital label can be associated with an Internet address. The Internet address of the digital label can be included in a machine-readable object on the corresponding printed physical label. Someone who has the item corresponding to the printed physical label can view informational content within the corresponding digital label by using a reader to read the machine-readable object.

Abstract: Systems and methods to send or receive redundant Generic Object Oriented Substation Event (GOOSE) messages are described. An intelligent electronic device may obtain power system data from a power system. The IED may publish the power system data in a first GOOSE message and publish the same power system data in a second GOOSE message. The second GOOSE message may have different header information than the first GOOSE message to allow the subscriber to determine that the redundant GOOSE messages are both received. If the first and second GOOSE message are duplicates with identical header information but unique trailer information methods allow the subscriber to determine that the duplicate GOOSE messages are both received.

Abstract: Techniques for dynamic contact ingestion are described. A system may interpret a voice command received from a first device based on contact data or other information associated with a second device connected to the first device. For example, when a data connection is made between the first device and the second device, the first device may receive the contact data and send the contact data to a remote system. The remote system may temporarily associate the contact data with the first device, enabling the remote system to interpret a voice command received from the first device using the contact data. The remote system may use the contact data to perform disambiguation, enabling the remote system to initiate outbound calls, announce inbound calls, and/or the like. When the second device is disconnected from the first device, the remote system may remove the association between the contact data and the first device.
