Publication number: 20240386362Abstract: Systems and methods to asynchronously vet, appraise, grade, rank and certify technical candidates for hiring are described. The technical candidate certification system administers and evaluates a set of specialized and customized evaluations of a technical candidate to generate a technical candidate ranking value, the ranking value typically provided relative to other technical candidates. The set of evaluations are customized to the job requirements of the client employer and to the profile of the candidate employee, and may be specialized to the hiring of software developer candidate employees. In one aspect, the technical candidate ranking system administers a software coding test and a technical interview, and provides an assessment and measure of a candidate's language proficiency. The client employer is provided with a ranking value of the recommended employee candidates.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 15, 2024Publication date: November 21, 2024Applicant: FullStack Labs, Inc.Inventors: Michael Frank Piccolo, David Matthew Jackson

Patent number: 12100869Abstract: A sub-assembly for an electrochemical stack, such as a PEM fuel cell stack, has a bipolar plate with sealing material extending from its upper face, around the edge of the bipolar plate, and onto its lower face. The bipolar plate is preferably a combination of an anode plate and a cathode plate defining an internal coolant flow field and bonded together by sealing material which also provides a seal around the coolant flow field. All of the sealing material in the sub-assembly may be one contiguous mass. To make the sub-assembly, anode and cathode plates are loaded into a mold. Liquid sealing material is injected into the mold and fills a gap between the edge of the plates, and portions of the outer faces of the plates, and the mold. In a stack, sub-assemblies are separated by MEAs which at least partially overlap the sealing material on their faces.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2021Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: HYDROGENICS CORPORATIONInventor: David Frank

Publication number: 20240265125Abstract: An embedded next generation access control system imposes fine-grained access control on data in a resource database and includes a resource database, NGAC database, administrator, and mediator. The resource database includes controlled resource data and a mediator. The NGAC database includes an adjudicator and access control policy data. The administrator communicates access control policy input to the NGAC database upon which access control policy data is made in the NGAC database. The controlled resource data is access controlled by access control policy data via calls of an adjudicator API, which implements Next Generation Access Control standard by NIST, by the resource database to obtain access decisions. The adjudicator determines which controlled resource data are accessed by a user and provides an access control list for each user and user attribute. The adjudicator also provides a prohibited access control list for a user and user attributes in the access control policy data if there are any.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2024Publication date: August 8, 2024Inventors: Gopi Katwala, David Frank Ferraiolo
