  • Patent number: 11926368
    Abstract: Vehicle cab suspension control systems are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the cab suspension control systems can include front cab-to-frame mounts that include controllable elastomer-based isolators that can provide real time variable damping to improve ride quality and/or road holding and reduce cab roll in response to, for example, input from one or more cab and/or frame mounted accelerometers, position sensors, etc. Embodiments of the control systems described herein can utilize a single vehicle controller (e.g., an ECU) to control all of the cab suspension components (e.g., semi-active damping technologies, air spring technologies, etc.) employed on a vehicle to provide a single suspension control solution that can provide improved ride performance, road holding, etc.

  • Patent number: 11922211
    Abstract: System and method for managing migration of trusted execution environments (TEEs) based on migration policies utilizes a source migration agent in the source host computer and a destination migration agent in a destination host computer to migrate a source TEE in the source host computer to the destination host computer. A migration policy data of the source TEE is first transmitted to the destination migration agent from the source migration agent to determine whether the destination host computer satisfies migration policies specified in the migration policy data. In response to a determination that the destination host computer satisfies the migration policies specified in the migration policy data, a destination TEE is created in the destination host computer and memory pages of the source TEE are transmitted to the destination TEE. The memory pages are then restored at the destination TEE for execution.

  • Publication number: 20240061731
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to configuring a legacy application or service with a reconfigurable cryptographic provider capable of leveraging many different cryptographic algorithms, protocols or functions. The application or service can be configured with the reconfigurable cryptographic provider by redirecting cryptographic API calls intended for a linked static shared cryptographic library or provider to a cryptographic adapter configured to emulate responses provided by the linked static shared cryptographic library. A cryptographic adapter is also described and is configured to generate abstracted versions of the cryptographic API calls and pass them on to the reconfigurable cryptographic provider, which selects and implements an appropriate cipher solution based on the abstracted cryptographic API calls.

  • Patent number: 11172819
    Abstract: Multiple wireless sensor assemblies are individually attached to standard biopotential electrodes, which are placeable on a subject's body at locations for biopotential signal recording. The sensor assemblies, which are electrically isolated, simultaneously measure potential voltages from the body sites in accordance with a synchronization. The measured signals are amplified, digitized, and filtered, and then sent wirelessly to a monitoring system. The monitoring system receives multiple sensor signals and constructs biopotential vectors depending on the placement and number of the sensors. The sensor signals are referenced to a common virtual center bias to synthesize a common mode rejection.

  • Patent number: 10835284
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method includes positioning a trocar having a pressure sensor in or on the trocar into a patient cavity such that distension of the patient cavity causes an altitude of the pressure sensor to increase. The method also includes distending the patient cavity by supplying an insufflation gas to the patient cavity, thereby increasing an altitude of the pressure sensor from a first altitude to a second altitude. The method also includes determining a change in pressure at the pressure sensor resulting from increasing the altitude of the pressure sensor from the first altitude to the second altitude and controlling the supply of insufflation gas to the patient cavity in response to the determined change in pressure resulting from increasing the altitude of the pressure sensor from the first altitude to the second altitude.
