  • Patent number: 10346273
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for an automated analog fault injection including creating a list of fault models for injection to an analog circuit, adding a first fault placeholder to the analog circuit, running fault simulations by replacing the first fault placeholder with a first fault model from the list of fault models, and determining whether the first fault model is detected.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7150040
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing network access to internal hosts protected by a firewall is provided. A user on an external host logs in into a firewall. Once the user has been authenticated to the firewall, a session is established for the user, and tunnel configuration is transmitted to the user's process on the external host. The tunnel configuration data indicates the configuration of at least one tunnel for connecting to at least one internal host protected by the firewall. When creating a socket for connecting to the internal host, the socket is configured based on the tunnel configuration data. Tunnel objects and tunnel socket objects may be specially configured to establish a connection in a way that takes advantage of the power and simplicity of the inheritance feature of object oriented software. Various tunnel classes are provided to configure tunnels in a variety of mariners.

  • Publication number: 20060081954
    Abstract: A ferromagnetic thin-film based magnetic field detection system having a substrate supporting a magnetic field sensor in a channel with a first electrical conductor supported on the substrate positioned at least in part along the channel gap and in direct contact with at least some surface of the magnetic field sensor ands a second electrical conductor supported on the substrate positioned at least in part along the channel gap in a region thereof adjacent to, but separated from, the magnetic field sensor.

  • Patent number: 4327487
    Abstract: A cutting tool includes a pair of pivotally connected handles extending through and defining a pair of coacting U-shaped cutting jaws. Each of the cutting jaws defines a cutting edge extending throughout the base and side legs of the U shape. The jaws have a closed position wherein one of the jaws is an inner jaw disposed within the other of the jaws, which is an outer jaw. The cutting edges are angulated in relation to each other so that each of the cutting edges defined by the legs of the respective jaws are not in coacting relationship before the bases of the corresponding jaws. Additionally, the cutting tool includes a knock-out member pivotally disposed within one of the U-shaped jaws for removing material severed by the jaws from the inside thereof.

  • Patent number: 4321291
    Abstract: A decorative butterfly and the method and assembly of constructing the same. The decorative butterfly includes a central portion with a center line passing therethrough and a wing disposed on each side of the center line and extending from the central portion. Each of the wings has a plurality of pleats extending radially from the central portion.The method of forming the decorative butterfly includes the steps of forming a plurality of parallel and alternately oppositely folded up and down pleats in a sheet of material. The pleats are secured together at a central portion on the center line which passes perpendicularly through the pleats while allowing the pleats to fan out from the center portion on either side of the center line.
