Patent number: 11394745Abstract: Every day, thousands of routing “hijacks” occur on the Internet, almost all of them benign. The malicious ones and the resulting misdirection of Internet traffic can be identified by applying sophisticated analytics to extensive global real-time feeds of Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing updates. When legitimate attacks are discovered, the automated analysis may be augmented with Domain Name Service (DNS) data (to determine the likely targets), traceroute data (to determine if they represent Man-In-The-Middle exploits), inferred business relationships (to understand the scope of the impacts) and even the raw BGP messages. These techniques can be used to uncover attacks against both commercial and government entities.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2017Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Dynamic Network Services, Inc.Inventors: Zmijewski Edward Earl, Madory Douglas, Sergeyev Alexandr

Patent number: 10408362Abstract: A flow control valve includes a valve body having an bore and a plurality of fluid ports in communication with the bore. A valve spool is axially slidably disposed in the valve body, and an end portion of an end of the valve spool has a convex curved surface. A linear actuator is disposed at one end of the valve body and includes an armature slidable along an axial direction of the valve spool. The armature includes a head portion having a convex curved surface configured to abut against the end portion of the valve spool. The engagement structure between the valve spool and the armature of the flow control valve is improved, which enables the valve spool and the armature to be automatically aligned. This reduces the precision requirement of contact between the valve spool and armature, which facilitates mass production and reduces cost of the valves.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2017Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: JOHNSON ELECTRIC INTERNATIONAL AGInventors: Edward Earl King, David Hugo Barnett

Publication number: 20190093378Abstract: A heating system is described that uses solar thermal technology in the heating cycle using the compression principle to reduce the electrical consumption of the compressors, thereby increasing the efficiency of systems being used for heating with an increased refrigerant flow. Thermal energy provided from solar thermal energy collectors may be used. The rate of efficiency of the total heating system depends heavily on the size and construction of the heat exchanger array and the pipework to and from these heat exchangers. The system uses proper dimensioning, components in the pipework, and logic groups with sensors and actuators attached in that pipework to increase energy efficiency.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2018Publication date: March 28, 2019Inventors: Edward Earl Sweat, Mark Crabtree, Chris Micallef

Patent number: 9449238Abstract: Systems and methods search pixels of source images and compare them to pixels of templates. Best matches correlate to objects in the image. That environmental conditions impact the appearance of objects, best matching scores suffer under poor lighting and other adverse conditions. Improving scores includes augmenting traditional correlation techniques with object features extracted from the source image and matching them to templates corresponding to the features. Certain embodiments contemplate corrupting pixels of image templates corresponding to objects with pixels extracted from the source image corresponding to features. Representative features include corners, edges, ridges, points/regions of interest, etc. Other embodiments note augmented correlation as a computing application and computing devices therefore, including cameras for capturing images and displaying results to users.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2014Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: LEXMARK INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Ahmed Hamad Mohamed Eid, Tomasz Jan Cholewo, Edward Earl Rippetoe, II
