Abstract: The disclosed technology teaches aggregating 3rd-party risk measures during an authentication journey, including providing a risk measure aggregation node, a JSON transform, and a configuration for 3rd-party risk measures to request. Responsive to invocation of the risk measure aggregation node during the authentication journey, the method includes setting a timer for receipt of a configured 3rd-party risk measure, wherein expiration of the timer causes the risk measure aggregation node to stop waiting for a timed-out 3rd party risk measure provider and requesting the configured 3rd-party risk measures. Upon receiving at least some of the requested 3rd-party risk measures, included is applying the JSON transform to aggregate the returned 3rd-party risk measures into an aggregate score, and the risk measure aggregation node providing to another node in the authentication journey an aggregated score taking into account the configured 3rd-party risk measures received prior to expiration of the timer.

Abstract: Interchangeable driver systems including at least a driver and a receptacle are disclosed. The receptacle provides a compartment, space, or other connection point for a power input as well as connecting structure that releasably and interchangeably connects to the driver. The driver has complementary electrical and mechanical connecting structure. The electrical and mechanical connections between the driver and the receptacle are such that when a mechanical connection between them is made, an electrical connection is also made. The receptacle may take the form of an enclosure that surrounds a substantial portion of the driver, or it may take the form of a short base with a socket that receives a connecting portion of the driver.

Abstract: A digitally controlled media multicasting system containing a signal processing system accepting and optionally modifying one or more independent single- or multi-channel baseband signals (typically, but by no means necessarily, audio or video signals); amplitude-, frequency-, or phase-modulating specified RF, IF, or LF carrier wave(s) in accord with said baseband signal(s); and then compositing the modulated carrier waves into a smaller quantity of waveform(s), said waveform(s) being (as necessary) frequency-multiplied or -shifted, and amplified for wireless transmission.

Abstract: A technique for permitting data transfers between a high speed bus and a low speed bus which operate independently and asynchronously wherein when the low speed bus requires access to the high speed bus, the busy status of the latter bus is determined and transfers are made to the high speed bus at high speed when such bus is not busy. When the high speed bus requires access to the low speed bus, if the low speed bus is busy the requesting master on the high speed bus is temporarily placed in a pending status and is removed from its tenure on the high speed bus, so that the high speed bus is free to handle other requests. When the low speed bus is free, the highest priority pending requestor is provided access to the low speed bus on a priority basis over all then current requestors.
