  • Patent number: 11962667
    Abstract: A client updates a display of a user interface associated with a state-based client-server application in accordance with a client-side cache. The server supplies data for a new state and additional data for one or more subsequent states that possibly follow the new state if appropriate one or more operations are performed. When a client request is generated that indicates an operation that causes the application to transition to the new state, the client updates the display in accordance with the data that corresponds to the new state from the client-side cache, if available from the client-side cache. The new state data is available since the server has previously supplied the new state data.

  • Patent number: 11750376
    Abstract: A method of securing, by a managing node, communication in a network of member nodes including a first member node. Communication is secured using a (k, n1) secret sharing scheme during a first phase. The managing node announces a phase shift to a subsequent phase relative to the first phase. The managing node secures communication in the network during the subsequent phase using a (k+x, n2) secret sharing scheme. Each of the member nodes is previously in possession of exactly one corresponding unique share for the second key. The first member node is previously in possession of a first unique share for the second key. The managing node deletes the first member node from the subsequent phase by broadcasting the first unique share for the second key.

  • Patent number: 11665995
    Abstract: The controller that receives at least one sensor signal indicative of a measured profile of a particulate material within a storage tank of an agricultural system. The controller also determines whether a variation between the measured profile and a target profile is greater than a threshold value. The controller outputs a first output signal to a user interface indicative of instructions to inform an operator of a profile variation, outputs a second output signal to an agitator indicative of activation of the agitator, or a combination thereof, in response to determining that the variation between the measured profile and the target profile is greater than the threshold value.

  • Patent number: 11606411
    Abstract: Response delay associated with a state-based client-server application can be reduced with utilization of an application state server-side cache. A server caches data for a set of one or more possible states of a client-server application that may follow a current state of the application. The server rapidly responds to a client request with data that corresponds to an appropriate new state of the application in accordance with the application state server-side cache. The server determines that the application will transition to the appropriate new state from the current state of the application with the application state server-side cache based, at least in part, on an operation indicated by the client request.

  • Publication number: 20230069280
    Abstract: The invention comprises an atomic structure kit for enabling students to understand how atoms are made of smaller sub-atomic particles, the architecture of these particles in relation to each other, and the forces acting upon the sub-atomic particles that hold an atom together. The kit comprises a central body representing an atomic nucleus attached to a shaft about which concentric circular or elliptical rings are rotatably attached. A plurality of bodies representing protons and neutrons is magnetically attachable to the atomic nucleus, and a plurality of bodies representing electrons is magnetically attachable to the rotatable rings. The properties and geometry of the magnetic materials mimic the strong localised force relationships between sub-atomic particles, specifically the electron-electron, proton-proton repulsion, the electron-nucleus attraction and the very strong attraction between the nucleons that bind the nucleus.

  • Patent number: 11553640
    Abstract: An agricultural implement wear monitoring system that monitors a first component of an agricultural implement. A sensor detects and emits a signal indicative of a first geometric dimension of the first component and/or a second geometric dimension of the first component relative to a second component. A controller couples to the sensor. The controller monitors the first geometric dimension and/or the second geometric dimension, and in response to a detected change in the first geometric dimension and/or the second geometric dimension determines a remaining service life of the first component.

  • Patent number: 11483007
    Abstract: Described are apparatus and methods to calibrate and align multiple high-speed clock domains. A system includes at least two clock domains, a launch circuit connected to each of the at least two domains, and a calibration circuit. Each clock domain including a resettable device having a local reset retime clock. The launch circuit aligns a reset pulse with the local reset retime clock by using a launch clock from one of the domains, where the reset pulse is incoherent with respect to the domains, adjusts a delay of the launch clock to control a launch time of the reset pulse, and sends the reset pulse based on the delayed launch clock. The calibration circuit samples a local reset retime delayed clock to generate a readback signal. The launch circuit and the calibration circuit iterate through selected delays until safe arrival timing is indicated from each readout.
