  • Patent number: 10970157
    Abstract: Incident information that describes a timing of an incident in a service, is received from a service. User activity information is received from a client system in a tenant. An impact of an incident, on a tenant, is identified by combining the incident information with the user activity information.

  • Publication number: 20190265012
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems and methods associated with a metrology system for high-speed, non-contact coordinate measurements of parts are disclosed herein. In embodiments, the metrology system includes a metrology bridge to be coupled to a measurement assembly. The measurement assembly may include a stage moveable across multiple independent axes. The bridge may include a housing, mounting members coupled to the housing, and a plurality of sensors mounted within the housing. The mounting members may rotatably couple the housing to the measurement assembly. Further, sensor elements of the plurality of sensor devices may be aligned along a length of the housing and may be directed out of the housing.

  • Patent number: 9917828
    Abstract: An email security system is described that allows users within different organizations to securely send email to one another. The email security system provides a federation server on the Internet or other unsecured network accessible by each of the organizations. Each organization provides identity information to the federation server. When a sender in one organization sends a message to a recipient in another organization, the federation server provides the sender's email server with a secure token for encrypting the message to provide secure delivery over the unsecured network.

  • Patent number: 7150273
    Abstract: A passageway is provided between branches of a multi-branch exhaust manifold to reduce the amount of backflow (iEGR) into the cylinders at low engine speeds. The passage is located upstream of the turbocharger and can be at the part of the manifold where the branches merge for entry into the turbo. The passageway allows exhaust pressure pulse modulation so that high iEGR levels (using iEGR through delayed exhaust valve closing for example) are avoided. The passage may be controllable to modulate the effect based on engine conditions.
