Publication number: 20240064112Abstract: A server device, system, method, and for controlling access to project resources is disclosed. The disclosure includes a processor, and a communications module and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to generate a plurality of zones for a project, each zone defining a set of access rights to: i) a database; and ii) at least one tool. The processor configures each set of access rights to allow a proxy service to access the zones, and receives, from a client device and via the proxy service, an access query to access at least one zone. The processor provides the client device access to, via the proxy service, the at least one dataset and at least one tool of the at least one zone.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 1, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Applicant: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Amir Mahmood MODIR, James Anthony BEGG, ZeZhong ZHENG, Sertac KABADAYI, Tadd AXON, Mark Edward CARTER, Nikita ISLAMOV

Patent number: 11899053Abstract: A condition monitoring system and method for electrical power components, in particular a transformer. A partial discharge detector unit captures acoustic signals of the partial discharge by means of an A-sensor. A processing unit captures a frequency of the partial discharges detected by the A-type sensor and a histogram module determines a temporal profile of the frequency from the frequency signal and a time signal. An analysis unit monitors the temporal profile for a fall and/or rise, preferably by means of pattern recognition. A warning signal is triggered if an adjustable threshold is exceeded. An imminent failure of an electrical power component can therefore be detected in good time and warned of; the component can be automatically disconnected if appropriate.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2019Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy Service GmbHInventor: Seyed Amir Mahmood Najafi

Publication number: 20220345513Abstract: Systems and methods of placeshifting media playback between two or more devices are provided. For example, a method for placeshifting media may include downloading onto a first device an index of files accessed or modified on a second device via a data storage server, at least one of the files being a media file played on the second device. The first device may display a user selectable list of the files on the first device before issuing a request for the media file to the data storage server. The data storage server may send the media file to the first device from the data storage server, and the first device may play back the media file where the second device left off.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2022Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventors: Michael ROSENBLATT, Gloria LIN, Amir Mahmood MIKHAK, Taido Lantz NAKAJIMA, Sean Anthony MAYO, Andrew HODGE, Anthony Michael FADELL, Jeffery Theodore LEE, Shawn A.

Patent number: 9560471Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for allowing the sharing of one or more system resources between multiple devices. In one embodiment, a requesting device transmits a resource access request to a target device using a near-field communication (NFC) protocol. The target device responds by using the NFC connection to return a listing of resources available for sharing to the requesting device. The requesting device may select one or more of the available resources and establish an appropriate connection to access the selected resource or resources. In one embodiment, the requesting device may lack external network connectivity capabilities while the target device includes wi-fi connectivity as a shared resource. Accordingly, the requesting device may access external network of the target device via the target as a conduit.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2013Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Gloria Lin, Amir Mahmood Mikhak, Taido Lantz Nakajima, Sean Anthony Mayo, Michael Rosenblatt

Patent number: 9070149Abstract: Various techniques are provided for the gifting between multiple electronic devices of media content provided by an online digital media provider. An offer and acceptance of a selected gift file is accomplished between a gifter device and a receiving giftee device using a near-field communication (NFC) connection. If a connection to the online provider is available, the gifter device may transmit a gift request by which the gifter's account is charged for the gift file. Thereafter, a gift file created using DRM keys associated with the giftee's account may be downloaded to the giftee device. If a network connection is unavailable, the giftee device may transfer a locked gift file and a corresponding gift license to the giftee device using a peer-to-peer connection. The giftee device may authenticate the license and unlock the gift file once a connection to the online provider is available.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2008Date of Patent: June 30, 2015Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Gloria Lin, Amir Mahmood Mikhak, Taido Lantz Nakajima, Sean Anthony Mayo, Michael Rosenblatt, Andrew Hodge
