Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for identifying polygons that are accurate representations of geographical boundaries of properties are presented. For example, a polygon may be selected from a database of polygons. The polygon may comprise a representation of geographical boundaries of a property associated with an entity. The polygon may be associated with a location and/or a size. A location database may be analyzed to identify a second location associated with the property. An offset distance may be determined based upon the location and the second location. The database of polygons may be analyzed to determine an expected size of the property based upon a plurality of polygons associated with the entity. A size difference between the expected size of the property and the size may be determined. A quality score associated with the polygon may be generated based upon the offset distance and the size difference.

Abstract: Secure auditability of monitoring processing using public ledgers that are particularly useful for monitoring surveillance orders, whereby an overseeing enforcer (“E”) checks if law enforcement agencies and companies are respectively over-requesting or over-sharing user data beyond what is permitted by the surveillance order, in a privacy-preserving way, such that E does not know the real identities of the users being surveilled, nor does E get to read the users' unencrypted data. Embodiments of the present invention also have inbuilt checks and balances to require unsealing of surveillance orders at the appropriate times, thus enabling accounting of the surveillance operation to verify that lawful procedures were followed, protecting users from government overreach, and helping law enforcement agencies and companies demonstrate that they followed the rule of law.

Abstract: A dual-modulated QR code (DMQR code) is in the format of a conventional QR code but uses elongated markers instead of black squares in the code modules. The positions of the markers within the DMQR code represent a nonconfidential primary message, and the orientations of the markers within the modules of the DMQR code represent a confidential secondary message.

Abstract: Touch responsive displays that may be integrated into a wide variety of non-transparent, non-glass surfaces to provide on-demand human computer interfaces that blend with the environment, i.e., remain invisible unless activated, effectively adding digital user interfaces (UI) to non-technology products and surfaces. The interactive display devices are frameless assemblies of a sensor layer, a light layer, and a support layer housing a microcontroller, wherein the device is configured to be positioned beneath a non-transparent surface layer with the sensor layer arranged below the surface layer.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for leveraging uplink (U)L scheduling information obtained by way of Quality of Service (QoS) Null/QoS Data frames and Media Access Control (MAC) headers transmitted by any station (STA). This UL scheduling information can be read by any access point (AP) in an extended service set (ESS), and used to improve network performance. For example, an AP may use such UL scheduling information (from STAs associated to co-channel APs in the same ESS) to minimize the latency for UL latency-sensitive traffic in that ESS. Additionally, an AP may use such UL scheduling information to minimize contention amongst STAs connected to different APs on the same channel in the same ESS, thereby improving system capacity.

Abstract: A distributed secure communication system includes a first System Control Processor (SCP) subsystem coupled to second and third SCP subsystems via a network. The first SCP subsystem identifies the second SCP subsystem, signs a first SCP authentication communication with a first private key to provide a first signed SCP authentication communication that it transmits to the second SCP subsystem. The first SCP subsystem receives a second signed SCP authentication communication from the second SCP subsystem, authenticates the second signed SCP authentication communication using a second public key associated with the second SCP subsystem and, in response, establishes a first secure communication channel with the second SCP subsystem.

Abstract: A live migration/high availability system includes a first computing system having a first SCP subsystem coupled to first computing system components and a first hypervisor subsystem that provides a first virtual machine. Each time the first SCP subsystem receives snapshot commands from the hypervisor subsystem, it retrieves respective SCP component state information that was not retrieved in response to a previous snapshot command from each first SCP component included in the first SCP subsystem, and uses the respective SCP component state information to generate a respective SCP subsystem snapshot based on that snapshot command. The first SCP subsystem then transmits the SCP subsystem snapshots to a second SCP subsystem in a second computing system, and the second SCP subsystem uses the SCP subsystem snapshots to allow a second hypervisor subsystem on the second computing system to provide a second virtual machine that operates the same as the first virtual machine.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a hardware device having a query processing engine to provide queries into source data and to provide responses to the queries.

The non-transitory memory comprises instructions that cause the one or more processors to divide a table of the database into a plurality of logical partitions; during a first interval of time, insert new records exclusively into a first partition of the plurality of logical partitions; during a second interval of time, insert new records exclusively into a second partition of the plurality of logical partitions; during a subsequent interval of time, determine that a predetermined period of time has passed since conclusion of the first interval of time; and responsive to the determination that the predetermined period of time has passed, delete records from the first partition without changing contents of the second partition or any other partition of the plurality of logical partitions.

Abstract: In order to avoid writing duplicates of blocks of data into a storage platform, any virtual disk within the storage platform may have a de-duplication feature enabled. Or, all virtual disks have this feature enabled. For virtual disks with de-duplication enabled, a unique message digest is calculated for every block of data written to that virtual disk. Upon a write, these message digests are consulted in order to determine if a particular block of data has already been written, if so, it is not written again, and if not, it is written. All de-duplication virtual disks are written to a single system virtual disk within the storage platform. De-duplication occurs over the entire storage platform and over all its virtual disks because all message digests are consulted before a write is performed for any virtual disk. A read for a de-duplication virtual desk reads from the system virtual disk.
