Abstract: Systems and methods for provisioning and validating a network are disclosed. One method can comprise providing a first communication tunnel between a network access point and a first tunnel endpoint. Availability of the first tunnel endpoint can be determined. If the first tunnel endpoint is determined to be available, network traffic can be routed to the first tunnel endpoint. If the first tunnel endpoint is determined to be unavailable, a second communication tunnel between the network access point and a second tunnel endpoint can be provided.

Abstract: A cloud security control platform and method enforces security controls across multiple cloud environments, services and disparate teams while providing a frictionless “Permissions on Demand” mechanism for approvals and exceptions. In contrast to the prior art, security is evaluated on a permission by permission basis, with the default being that all permissions are denied and then only given to a particular identity on an as-needed basis. This approach reduces the security risks associated with the vast capabilities available in Public Cloud environments and permits an organization that uses the platform to grant access, approve exceptions and delegate approvals with the appropriate compliance.

Abstract: A bus bar assembly including a bus bar including a coupling interface; an enclosure surrounding a portion of the bus bar, wherein the enclosure exposes the coupling interface; and a bracket including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion of the bracket coupling the enclosure to the bus bar with one or more fasteners, the second portion of the bracket coupled to an aggregate rail, wherein the coupling interface of the bus bar is coupled to a respective power supply of one or more servers that are removably coupled to the aggregate rail.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method of providing enhanced content to a PSAP or other service center whereby when a 911 call is to be initiated, prior to the call or text communication being sent, the software application on the device contacts the cloud-based dynamic page service. The cloud-based dynamic page service receives event information, dynamically creates a page for the event along with a page identifier, and sends the page identifier to the software application of the initiating device. Then, the software application on the device initiates a 911 communication and includes the page identifier with the communication. In some cases, the page identifier may be sent as a separate communication.

Abstract: Aircraft that incorporates a rounded-hat composite stringer connected to an inner side of the skin of the aircraft to form an elongate conduit that defines a conduit axis, where the conduit axis includes at least one curving portion. The rounded-hat composite stringer can be manufactured by constructing a lower forming die and an upper forming die, each forming die having a length and defining a curve along at least a portion of the length of the die, cutting a pre-cured flat composite charge dimensioned to form the rounded-hat composite stringer, pressing the flat composite charge between the lower and upper forming dies to shape the composite charge into a pre-formed stringer having an inner side between curved fillet portions, contacting a forming member against the inner side of the pre-formed stringer, applying radius fillers to the curved fillet portions of the pre-formed stringer, curing the pre-formed stringer, and removing the forming member from the cured stringer.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method of automatically generating an event-based request communication (“ERC”) and routing the ERC to a public safety answering point (“PSAP”) (or other call center) to service the ERC based on PSAP profiles that each specify capabilities of a given PSAP. A client device may be programmed to obtain the capabilities of a relevant PSAP, and generate and communicate an ERC based on the capabilities of the PSAP. The ERC may be generated in a format that the relevant PSAP is capable of processing. The format may include a voice call, a text message, an electronic mail message, a shortwave radio communication, and/or other type of broadband wireless or wireline communication.

Abstract: Methods and devices of fabricating a stringer for a vehicle. The stringer can be constructed from two charges that are formed together into the stringer. During fabrication, the charges are placed over support members with the ends of each charge extending over a die cavity. The charges are secured and a punch die forces the first ends into the die cavity forming blades of the stringer. The charges are secured thus tensioning the charges during the punch process.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method of making a composite part. The method comprises covering a mold tool for a composite part with a parting film. The method further comprises laying up at least one layer of pre-preg on the parting film covering the mold tool to form a laid-up composite part and removing the laid-up composite part from the parting film. The parting film comprises a polymer sheet having a first major surface and a second major surface; and a first adhesive disposed on the first major surface of the polymer sheet, the first adhesive adhering the polymer sheet to the mold tool.

Abstract: A composite part, such as a stiffener is formed in place. A composite charge is placed on a tool spanning a mold cavity, with the centerline of the charge offset from the centerline of the mold cavity. Opposite sides of the charge are held against the tool as the charge is formed into the mold cavity. One side of the charge is held against movement on the tool while the other side of the charge is allowed to slip over the tool toward the mold cavity.
