Abstract: A method for managing assets in a modular platform, the method comprising maintaining a plurality of declarative protocols to standardize interaction semantics between a plurality of assets in a protocol repository, wherein each declarative protocol specifies interaction rules for at least one specific asset, and each declarative protocol is configured to support versioning when a predetermined condition is met, the versioning maintains compatibility between different versions of declarative protocols during updates or transitions; in response to an asset integration to the modular platform, selecting a declarative protocol from the plurality of declarative protocols based at least in part on an asset type or operational requirements associated with the asset to be integrated to the modular platform; and determining a version of the selected declarative protocol based on a pre-defined protocol resolution; wherein the protocol repository comprises a metadata indexing mechanism for managing and retrieving decla

Abstract: A method for managing a multi-tenant platform, comprising: enabling access from a plurality of tenants to the platform through a multi-tenant architecture supporting organizational units and segmentation units; generating a tenant-specific execution context upon receiving a request from a tenant to access the platform via recalling the organizational unit associated with the tenant; defining asset sharing rules for tenants based on declarative protocols, wherein the asset sharing rules allow selective and controlled access to shared assets between tenants, and wherein the declarative protocols are configuration-based rules that specify conditions for asset access and sharing; dynamically configuring platform services to operate in a shared multi-tenant mode or an isolated single-tenant mode, according to tenant-specific requirements for data isolation in the execution context; and implementing policies across the organizational units and the segmentation units to provide granular control over access permissio

Abstract: A corner joint of a framed assembly includes a stile providing opposing first and second lateral sides, and an interior web extending between the first and second lateral sides and providing a stile profile, a rail providing opposing first and second lateral sides, and an interior web extending between the first and second lateral sides of the rail and providing a rail profile, and a corner connector. The corner connector includes a first portion that provides a first connector profile matable with the stile profile, and a second portion extending from the first portion and providing a second connector profile matable with the rail profile.

Abstract: A tool allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. Based on a laser input file with a pattern, a laser will burn the pattern onto apparel. With the tool, the user will be able to create, make changes, and view images of a design, in real time, before burning by a laser. Input to the tool includes fabric template images, laser input files, and damage input. The tool allows adding of tinting and adjusting of intensity and bright point. The user can also move, rotate, scale, and warp the image input.

Abstract: Systems and methods generate requests for encrypted (e.g., secured) credentials and data using one of a plurality of API plugins that are selected based on an access protocol for a network partition at which requested data is determined to be stored. Through the use of the dynamically-selected API plugins, the systems and methods may provide the aforementioned functions while being compatible with the different access protocols that may be encountered when providing central management across a diverse spectrum of user accounts, networks, and/or cloud platforms.

Abstract: Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. A technique includes using machine learning to create or extract a laser input file for wear pattern from an existing garment. Machine learning can be by a generative adversarial network, having generative and discriminative neural nets. The generative adversarial network is trained and then used to create a model. This model is used generate the laser input file from an image of the existing garment with the finishing pattern. With this laser input file, a laser can re-create the wear pattern from the existing garment onto a new garment.

Abstract: An on-demand manufacturing of apparel system includes online customization and ordering of garments, previewing of the garments, manufacturing including laser finishing of garments, and delivery to the customer. Laser finishing of apparel products reduces finishing cost, lowers carrying costs, increases productivity, shortens time to market, be more reactive to trends, reduces product constraints, reduces lost sales and dilution, and more. Fabric templates can be used to produce a multitude of laser finishes. Operational efficiency is improved.
