  • Patent number: 11838302
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable and executable media for detecting, alerting, managing, and optionally mitigating cyber security events on an aircraft's networks using an on-board cyber security appliance and applications that monitors and detects cyber security events in real time. A software selectable cyber security agent within the cyber security appliance mitigates (if enabled) the effects of a cyber security events and/or anomalies on the aircrafts networks while the aircraft is in-flight and/or on the ground.

  • Publication number: 20230323712
    Abstract: An improvement for use with a door latch assembly for a roll-up door includes a shim dimensioned and shaped to be positioned over a latch cover of the latch door assembly and to be slidingly moved to a shim extended position wherein a shim tang extends beyond a latch slide tang of the latch assembly. The shim is configured so that, if the latch assembly is mounted to a rolling door and is locked into an unsecured position by a first lock, wherein the slide tang does not engage the door jamb, the shim can be moved to and locked in the shim extended position to secure the rolling door without removing the first lock.

  • Publication number: 20230293805
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a negative pressure wound therapy device includes a negative pressure source and a controller configured to, in response to determining that the negative pressure source is directly fluidically connected to a wound dressing without a canister between the two, operate the negative pressure source in a first mode; otherwise, operate the negative pressure source in a second, different mode. The controller can be further configured to, in response to determining that a level of activity of the negative pressure source over a first time duration satisfies at least one of a leak or blockage condition, provide an indication of at least one of a leak or blockage and, in response to determining that the level of activity does not satisfy the at least one of the leak or blockage condition over a second time duration subsequent to the first time duration, discontinue providing the indication.

  • Patent number: 11742498
    Abstract: This invention pertains to methods for controlling thermal aspects during operation of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system, including controlling target cathode and anode inlet stream temperatures and differential temperatures defined by the anode and cathode inlet and outlet streams. In one aspect, thermal management is achieved by controlling a combustion stream temperature and by employing one heat exchanger having two cold side pathways. In another aspect, thermal management is achieved by controlling a temperature of a combustion stream distributed through a cathode feed heat exchanger and an anode feed heat exchanger, optionally with bypassing a portion of the cathode air stream around the cathode feed heat exchanger. In another aspect, thermal management is achieved by employing a cathode feed heat exchanger to heat a cathode air stream and by employing an equalizer heat exchanger to equilibrate temperatures of the resulting heated cathode air stream and an anode fuel stream.

  • Publication number: 20230195932
    Abstract: Protecting sensitive data from unauthorized disclosure is provided. For example, systems, methods, and computer readable storage devices are described that may be operable or configured to tokenize sensitive data attributes that may be included in a data file received from a client. Tokens that are anonymized but representative of the attributes may be generated and mapped to the sensitive data attributes. A tokenized data file may be de-tokenized and re-tokenized to perform processes that require the sensitive data attributes. A document may be transformed to protect the sensitive data attributes while reducing risk of disclosure of the sensitive data.

  • Patent number: 11681880
    Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for neural machine translation (NMT) of languages between network operation systems. The languages may be a query language, such as a XML path, to navigate through elements and attributes in an XML document. An NMT model comprises an encoder and a decoder to implement the machine translation. The encoder encodes a source sentence as a sequence of encoder hidden states. The decoder may incorporate attention mechanism to generate a target sentence, conditioned on the encoder hidden states. The NMT model may also use a modified beam search with variable beam width and search scope for each search step to speed up search process with a balance of accuracy and processing cost. Evaluation results demonstrate that embodiments of the present disclosure may be used in a recommender system for XPath auto-generation between different network operation systems.

  • Publication number: 20220323665
    Abstract: Embodiments of negative pressure wound therapy systems and methods for operating the systems are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system includes a negative pressure source, a wound dressing configured to be positioned over a wound, and optionally a canister configured to store fluid aspirated from the wound. The negative pressure source, wound dressing, and canister (when present) can be fluidically connected to facilitate delivery of negative pressure to the wound. The system can be configured to automatically detect whether the canister is positioned in the fluid flow path between the negative pressure source and the dressing while negative pressure source provides negative pressure to the wound dressing. Operation of the system can be adjusted based on whether presence of the canister has been detected. For example, a value of an operational parameter can be set to indicate that the canister is present.

  • Publication number: 20220196609
    Abstract: An ultrasonic probe assembly includes an ultrasonic probe having a housing, an ultrasonic sensor, at least one magnet, and rotatable joint portions. The housing extends along a longitudinal axis between first and second ends and includes a base surface. The sensor is secured adjacent a housing base surface configured to emit ultrasonic signals and receive ultrasonic echoes reflected from a target. The magnet is secured within the housing and configured to apply a magnetic force urging the base surface into contact with a surface of the target. The magnetic force frictionally maintains the housing at a stationary position with respect to the target surface. A first rotatable joint portion is positioned on a first lateral side of the housing. A second rotatable joint portion is positioned on a second lateral side of the housing, opposite the first lateral side.
