Publication number: 20220116355Abstract: A system and method for facilitating controlled access by a client device to one or more services provided by a server are disclosed. The client device's access to the services provided by the server may be dynamically controlled by a controller, which may generate instructions to an agent to effectuate the access control. The agent may be configured to control one or more access components associated with the server. The instructions generated by the controller may instruct the agent to cause the access control components to grant or remove the client device's access to the services provided by the server. In some implementations, the controller may generate such instructions based on a status of a session established between the controller and the client device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2021Publication date: April 14, 2022Applicant: AUNIGMA NETWORK SECURITY CORP.

Publication number: 20190380677Abstract: Changes in the mechanical and/or physiological properties of blood vessel serve as important indicators for prediction of cardiovascular disease. One challenge of the ultrasonic blood vessel measurement is the compression of the vessel due to the weight of a conventional ultrasound probe employed, resulting in the error on the diameter estimation. The presented invention addresses this issue with low-cost wearable ultrasound film sensors, which is flexible and lightweight so that it does not deform the blood vessel of interest beneath the sensor or restrict its motion during the measurement. In the preferred embodiment, the sensor is attached on a body surface above a blood vessel of interest. Pulsed ultrasound is transmitted into the body and the echoes from the posterior and anterior boundaries of a blood vessel are acquired with an ultrasound M-mode measurement. Then, the depth of each boundary is obtained with an ultrasound time of light technique.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2019Publication date: December 19, 2019Inventors: Yuu Ono, Masayoshi Yoshida, Andy Huang, Sreeraman Rajan

Patent number: 9928133Abstract: A method for operating a memory device includes performing a single read operation that includes additional one or more combinations of read and/or write cycles, and performing a single write operation that includes additional one or more combinations of read and/or write cycles. For example, a method for auto-correcting errors in a memory device having plurality of memory cells includes performing a first read operation of the memory cell to obtain a first read data value, performing a first write operation to the memory cell to write a second data value, which is a complement of the first data value, into the memory cell, performing a second read operation of the memory cell to obtain a third data value, and performing a second write operation to the memory cell to write a fourth data value, which is a complement of the third data value, to the memory cell.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2015Date of Patent: March 27, 2018Assignee: Advanced Integrated Memory Inc.Inventor: Andy Huang

Patent number: 8595059Abstract: A gift payment management system allows a user to redirect a payment request for selected offers to one or more potential purchasers. The gift payment management system monitors the potential purchaser's response. If the gift payment request is accepted by a potential purchaser, the gift payment management system facilitates verification of payment from the potential purchaser and notifies the user that the gift payment request was accepted. The product associated with the offers is then made available to the user. If multiple purchasers are designated, the gift payment management system further withdraws the gift payment request after the request is completed.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2011Date of Patent: November 26, 2013Assignee: Google Inc.Inventor: Andy Huang
