Abstract: This document describes techniques for authenticating an identity of a semiconductor component using a physical identifier. In some aspects, a physical identifier comprised of a region of features located indiscriminately within a surface of an encapsulated semiconductor component is fabricated. The physical identifier is then mapped. The map is then stored for use when authenticating the identity of the semiconductor component.

Abstract: A document preview system provides previews of a native document to client devices. The previews include comments associated with native objects in the native document. The document preview system identifies bounding areas in the preview associated with the native objects, which may be identified by the rendering markers applied to the native document prior to rendering. Using the bounding areas, the document preview system identifies comments for the native document and determines the location to display the comment using native objects associated with the comment. When a new comment is received from a user for a preview of a native document, the document preview system determines native objects for the new comment that match a user's selection for placing the new comment. The new comment is inserted with the native objects in the native document.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, a first drag-and-drop action may be received from a user via a web-based graphical user interface platform to place a first node in a visual dataflow. Similarly, a second drag-and-drop action may be received from the user via the web-based graphical user interface platform to place a second node in the visual dataflow, the second node being directionally connected to the first node. A dataflow creator may then, responsive to said user actions, automatically create a data moving process to move information from a source data repository to a cloud-based destination data repository in accordance with the first and second nodes.
