Abstract: Disclosed are gaming systems, methods and machines that may include one or more notched display screens. The notched display screens are defined by a non-rectangular shape. One or more portions of the display screen is removed, such that a variety of shapes can result from one or more cuts in the screen. In some examples, two or more notched display screens are arranged to provide a common and/or coordinated display. In some examples, a void from the removed portions can be used to present a feature, such as a mechanical reel.

Abstract: A system configured to detect a threat activity on a network. The system including a digital device configured to detect a first order indicator of compromise on a network, detect a second order indicator of compromise on the network, generate a risk score based on correlating said first order indicator of compromise on the network with the second order indicator of compromise on said network, and generate at least one incident alert based on comparing the risk score to a threshold.

Abstract: A device may include one or more memories; and one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, to receive a query for data stored by a database; generate an abstract syntax tree based on the query; determine whether the abstract syntax tree matches a list, where the list identifies one or more abstract syntax trees corresponding to queries or types of queries; and selectively perform an action based on whether the abstract syntax tree matches the entry of the list.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for identifying and monitoring connections in an optical system. A plurality of optical ports is configured to receive a plurality of optical links that couple with one or more remote optical devices. At least one light source generates identification (ID) signals. At least one optical element configured to direct the ID signals into transmission paths from the source optical device to the remote optical device/s over the plurality of optical links. The remote optical device/s include one or more optical elements that direct the ID signals through a set of WDM filters and returns the ID signals. At least one optical element directs returned ID signals to an optical channel monitor. At least one microprocessor configured to execute control instructions to generate the ID signals and process one or more outputs of the optical channel monitor in response to the returned ID signals to identify the plurality of optical links.

Abstract: A tamper-resistant keypad is described. The keypad includes a keycap for actuation by a user. An actuator includes a first end that is coupled to the keycap. A frame having an aperture is adapted to receive the actuator such that the second end of the actuator is captured by the frame. The actuator is prevented from being removed from the frame.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are provided for fabrication of a self contained key pad module having a top cover and a bottom cover. The top cover and the bottom cover encapsulate and/or sandwich a stack of keypad components via an over mold procedure that is performed around the stack. The packed stack between the top cover and the bottom cover can include a flex member, an electro luminous panel, and a silicone membrane with a plurality of keys thereupon.

Abstract: A sealed, solderless I/O connector for allowing the connection of cables or desk accessories to a mobile communication device while providing a weather tight seal allowing the use of the mobile communication device outdoors. The sealed, solderless I/O connector provides for greater tolerance of mechanical stress due to vibration or dropping because the contact points between the connector and the printed circuit board accomplished with a “U” shaped spring contact. The sealed, solderless I/O connector also provides a locking mechanism to prevent unintended detachment of the cable or desk accessory.
