Publication number: 20250259486Abstract: A method and system for avoiding conflicts across a vehicle diagnostics bus by incorporating a bridge device between the vehicle's data link connector and one or more sensors. The bridge device is capable of monitoring traffic across the vehicle's diagnostics bus, and conditions and transmits a sensor signal across the bus when said monitoring indicates that the transmission will not interfere or corrupt any other signals on said bus.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 13, 2024Publication date: August 14, 2025Applicant: Hondata, Inc.Inventor: Derek Stevens

Patent number: 12260711Abstract: A system and method for managing a game including generating a grid with a processing device. The grid is comprised of a plurality of squares defined by a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns. The method also includes establishing betting odds for each of the squares and presenting the squares and associated betting odds on a graphical user interface. The betting odds of each of the squares are associated with a likelihood of the square being established as a winning square. A winning square is designated in response to a score of a live sporting event including a digit of a score of a first team being the same as a row number of the square, and a digit of a score of a second team being the same as a column number of the square at the end of a predetermined interval of the live sporting event.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2023Date of Patent: March 25, 2025Assignee: GOLDEN GATE CASINO, LLCInventors: Derek Stevens, Mike Palm, Matt Metcalf, Chris Bennett

Patent number: 10648417Abstract: A method for an engine control unit to conduct real time updating of data tables based on feedback from the air flow sensor without external computing. The air fuel ratio is based on information received from an air flow meter, where a look-up table is actively tuned for the air flow calibration instead of the volumetric efficiency tables. Here, the look-up table involves a single dimension value so the calculations are simpler than more complex evaluations previously set forth.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2017Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Inventor: Derek Stevens

Patent number: 10503715Abstract: Technologies are disclosed for enabling application search through the use of programmatic application state indexing. The disclosed technologies enable applications to be systematically explored using a program to identify the various states of the application. For example, UI displays provided by an application can be explored and text or other content can be captured from each UI display. The text or other content can then be indexed and utilized to search applications and to navigate directly to specific application states.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2016Date of Patent: December 10, 2019Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Massaguer, Derek Steven Gebhard

Patent number: 10277708Abstract: Systems and methods are described for managing cross-account access to tasks on an on-demand code execution environment or other distributed code execution environment. Such environments utilize pre-initialized virtual machine instances to enable execution of user-specified code in a rapid manner, without delays typically caused by initialization of the virtual machine instances. However, to ensure security, the code of different users is generally maintained separately, and executed on separate virtual machines. Embodiments described herein enable users of a first account to execute code of a second account, without gaining access to the code itself and while maintaining the privacy and security of each account. Specifically, aliases for a task of a first account can be created on a task of a second account, and used to invoke that task on behalf of the first account. Aliases may also allow users to customize how the task is executed.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2016Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Timothy Allen Wagner, Marc John Brooker, Ajay Nair, Derek Steven Manwaring

Patent number: 10203990Abstract: Systems and methods are described for utilizing cross-account access to tasks on an on-demand code execution environment or other distributed code execution environment to implement an application programming interface (API) on a network-accessible service. An on-demand code execution environment can utilize pre-initialized virtual machine instances to enable execution of user-specified code in a rapid manner, without delays typically caused by initialization of the virtual machine instances. While users may generally execute their own code, the present application enables code of a first user to be executed by a second user, while maintaining the privacy and security of the code and associated accounts. Further, the present application enables a set of tasks to be grouped together as an API, enabling any user to create an API for a service, while the on-demand code execution environment manages execution of the tasks and allocation of underlying computing resources.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2016Date of Patent: February 12, 2019Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Timothy Allen Wagner, Marc John Brooker, Ajay Nair, Derek Steven Manwaring

Patent number: 9934019Abstract: Technology for converting an application function to a service is provided. In one example, a method may include analyzing an application to identify a function of the application including logic. The method may further include extracting the function from the application. The function may be uploaded to a service provider environment to be implemented as an application service. A function access wrapper for the function may be retrieved from the service provider environment. The function access wrapper may be configured to call the application service in the service provider environment to execute the logic in the service provider environment and to receive a result of execution of the logic from the application service. The function access wrapper may be inserted into the application in the place of the function.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2014Date of Patent: April 3, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Derek Steven Gebhard, Noah Emmanuel Crocker
