  • Patent number: 11991277
    Abstract: Aspects include a cryptographic hardware security module having a secure embedded heat pipe and methods for assembling the same. The cryptographic hardware security module can include a printed circuit board having one or more components. The cryptographic hardware security module can further include an encapsulation structure having a top can and a bottom can. The top can is fixed to a first surface of the printed circuit board and the bottom can is fixed to second surface of the printed circuit board opposite the first surface. A heat pipe is positioned between the top can and the component. The heat pipe includes two or more 180-degree bends. A portion of the heat pipe extends beyond a secure region of the encapsulation structure.

  • Patent number: 7418440
    Abstract: Described is a system and method for employing user created database-structured queries and data extraction engines to crawl through Websites extracting and organizing data from selected sources on a network, such as the Internet. The structure of a query processed by a Data Extraction engine enables a user to treat the network as a searchable database. The database-structured queries provide a user with tools to match patterns on selected sites on the network. A user may automate database-structured queries to be executed on a regular frequency. Output of the database-structured queries may be placed into a data log, displayed on a user display screen, or optionally reshaped for use by a plurality of data analysis tools. Additionally, an optional graphical user interface is provided.

  • Publication number: 20060219941
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for automated read-out of a superheated droplet-to-bubble type detector whereby a light source is positioned near one end of a droplet-containing medium which is protected from undesired light. A light sensor is positioned to detect changes in light that has traversed the medium from the light source. The sensor provides a read-out signal of changes in light intensity due to radiation and the read-out signal is monitored. Optionally, the light source intensity is monitored to correct the read-out signal for fluctuations in the light source intensity.
