Abstract: Improving automated package delivery to mobile delivery receptacles to allow accurate and reliable package deliveries comprises a delivery receptacle for an automated package delivery via an unmanned aerial delivery device. The delivery receptacle is notified of a pending delivery and travels to a receiving location. The delivery receptacle emits infrared (“IR”) beacons from one or more IR beacon transmitters. An aerial delivery device detects the IR beacon and uses the beacons to navigate to the delivery receptacle. The delivery receptacle receives IR beacon responses from the aerial delivery device and continually or periodically directs the IR beacons in the direction of the aerial delivery device. The aerial delivery device deposits the package in the delivery receptacle. After receiving the package, the delivery receptacle transports the package to a secure location, such as into a garage.

Abstract: A multi-chassis network device may automatically detect whether cables connected between chassis devices are correctly inserted. The device may insert, into a first data stream output from a first port of the device, control information identifying the first port. The device may receive, from a second data stream received by the first port of the device, second control information identifying a second port, at another device connected to the device via a cable. The device may determine, based on the second control information, whether the connection of the first port to the second port, via the cable, is valid and cause, when the connection of the first port to the second port is determined to not be valid, the device to output an indication that the connection is not valid or to reconfigure the device to make the connection of the first port to the second port valid.

Abstract: A method for completing financial transactions by telephone comprises a user that indicates a desire to conduct a financial transaction with a merchant using financial account information maintained by an account system. The merchant determines the user's telephone number and prepares a request to the account system for data to complete the financial transaction. The account system prepares a request for authorization to transmit the data to the merchant to complete the financial transaction and transmits the request to a user device. The user device displays the request for authorization, and the user's authorization is transmitted to the account system. Upon receipt of the authorization, the account system account management system prepares limited use financial account for the transaction with the user and transmits the data to the merchant. The merchant completes the financial transaction requested by the user during the telephone call using the received data.

Abstract: First in, first out (FIFO) queues may be used to transfer data between a producer clock domain and a number of consumer clock domains. In one implementation, a control component for the FIFO queues may include a number of counters, corresponding to each of the consumer clock domains, each of the counters maintaining a count value relating to an amount of data read by the corresponding consumer clock domain. The control component may additionally include a credit deduction component coupled to the count values of the counters, the credit deduction component determining whether any of the count values is above a threshold, and in response to the determination that any of the count values is above the threshold, reducing the count value of each of the counters and issuing a write pulse signal to the producer clock domain, the write pulse signal causing the producer clock domain to perform a write operation to the FIFO queues.
