Abstract: An example storage medium includes instructions that, when executed, cause a processor of a computing device to read, during start-up of the computing device, first configuration data from a first storage device of the computing device; read second configuration data from a second storage device of the computing device; determine that there is an inconsistency between the first configuration data and the second configuration data; check a tamper status of the computing device; based on the tamper status and the determination that there is an inconsistency between the first configuration data and the second configuration data: (i) clear a secure storage location of the computing device, the secure storage location storing data to access protected data; or (ii) replace the first configuration data on the first storage device of the computing device based on second data and continue the start-up of the computing device.

Abstract: The current document is directed to non-linear haptic actuators that use a rotor, rotor-suspension, and spring subsystem to efficiently generate vibrational forces in various types of devices and appliances in which the non-linear haptic actuators are incorporated. Non-linear haptic actuators can be designed and manufactured to be more space efficient than unbalanced-electric-motor and linear-resonant vibration modules and, because most of the frictional forces produced in unbalanced-electric-motor and linear-resonant vibration modules are eliminated from non-linear haptic actuators, non-linear haptic actuators are generally more power efficient and robust than unbalanced-electric-motor and linear-resonant vibration modules.

Abstract: Molten carbonate fuel cell configurations are provided that allow for introduction of an anode input gas flow on a side of the fuel cell that is adjacent to the entry side for the cathode input gas flow while allowing the anode and cathode to operate under co-current flow and/or counter-current flow conditions. It has been discovered that improved flow properties can be achieved within the anode or cathode during co-current flow or counter-current flow operation by diverting the input flow for the anode or cathode into an extended edge seal region (in an extended edge seal chamber) adjacent to the active area of the anode or cathode, and then using a baffle to provide sufficient pressure drop for even flow distribution of the anode input flow across the anode or cathode input flow across the cathode.

Abstract: Techniques for providing information related to insurance services solicit interaction from a user (e.g., during video game play). The solicited interaction identifies a real property. A virtual environment gaming landscape is generated. The gaming landscape includes a virtual representation of the identified real property. Additional interaction from the user with the virtual environment gaming landscape is solicited. A risk assessment related to the identified real property is performed based on user's interaction with the virtual environment gaming landscape. A recommendation regarding one or more services is provided based on the performed risk assessment.
