Publication number: 20250124086Abstract: A system includes a processor and a memory. When executed by the processor, the processor is caused to receive a document including at least one of structured data, semi-structured data, and unstructured data, analyze the metadata in the structured format to generate features enhancing the metadata in the structured format, produce classification data for the document based on the features enhancing the metadata in the structured format and the content in the unstructured format, automatically classify the document based on the classification data and store the classification data in a database structure. The classification data is used to effectively search for the document. The structured data includes metadata about the document in a structured format, the semi-structured data includes content of the document in an unstructured format and metadata about the document in the structured format and the unstructured data includes the content of the document in the unstructured format.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2023Publication date: April 17, 2025Applicant: MICRO FOCUS LLCInventors: Sean Blanchflower, Chris Smith

Publication number: 20250021391Abstract: Systems and methods may use models to generate predictions of specific access rights for users. Further, systems and methods may generate the predictions in an environment in which the availability of the specific access rights change frequently. The access rights, predicted using embodiments described herein, may be both available and associated with user affinities. An interface associated with the primary load management system may be configured to display the predicted access rights for a user operating a user device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2024Publication date: January 16, 2025Applicant: Live Nation Entertainment, Inc.Inventors: Ish Rishabh, Mark Roden, Chris Smith, Spencer Brown, Scott Kline, Krisha Zagura

Patent number: 11960889Abstract: A method and system for moving data from a source memory to a destination memory by a processor is disclosed herein. The destination memory stores a sequence of instructions and the sequence of instructions comprises one or more load instructions and one or more store instructions. The processor initially moves the one or more store instructions from the destination memory to the source memory. The processor then executes the one or more load instructions from the destination memory. On executing the one or more load instructions, the data is loaded from the source memory to at least one register in the processor. The processor further initiates execution of the one or more store instructions stored in the source memory. On executing the one or more store instructions from the source memory, the processor stores the data from the at least one register to the destination memory.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Nordic Semiconductor ASAInventor: Chris Smith

Patent number: 11954497Abstract: A method and system for moving data from a source memory to a destination memory by a processor are disclosed. The processor has a plurality of registers and the source memory stores a sequence of instructions that include one or more load instructions and one or more store instructions. The processor moves the load instructions from the source memory to the destination memory. Then, the processor initiates execution of the load instructions from the destination memory in order to load the data from the source memory to one or more registers in the processor. Execution then returns to the sequence of instructions stored in the source memory, and the processor stores the data from the registers to the destination memory.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Nordic Semiconductor ASAInventor: Chris Smith

Patent number: 11949714Abstract: Digital data processing systems of the type in which a server digital data device (“server”) is coupled to a client digital data device (“client”) over a network, e.g., the Internet, include web server software executing within an application layer on the server that responds to a request from the client by (i) validating a key received from the client with that request, (ii) generating a result code indicative of a success of that validation, (iii) initiating processing of the request, including invoking server resource software executing outside the application layer. The server resource software, which checks the result code upon invocation and before performing a protected operation required for processing the request, responds to a result code indicating that the result did not validate by exiting before executing the protected operation.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Robert Spremulli, Chris Smith, Radha Shelat, Myles Taggart Frothingham

Publication number: 20230320639Abstract: Devices and methods for withdrawing bodily fluid from a subject are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a handheld device can include a housing having an opening, a skin-piercing assembly, and an actuator coupled to the skin-piercing assembly. The skin-piercing assembly can include a casing, a drive member pivotably mounted within the casing and carrying a blade, and a biasing member coupling the drive member to the casing. The actuator can be movable relative to the housing from a first position to a second position. In the first position, the drive member can engage the casing to maintain the biasing member in a biased configuration. Movement of the actuator from the first position to the second position can disengage the drive member from the casing to permit the biasing member to drive the blade at least partially through and/or across the opening in the base.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 17, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Emily Welch, Ellen Hayes, Erwin Berthier, Jake Myre, Ben Casavant, Chris Smith, Jared Andrew Salstrom, Steven Henry Bietzer, William Peter Stiles
