  • Publication number: 20240144276
    Abstract: The method, system, and a computer program product are directed to dynamic batching of messages for network optimization, such as Quality of Service (QoS) optimization. The edge server dynamically decides which messages can be processed locally, which messages should be batched and transmitted asynchronously as a batch, and which messages should be processed synchronously. Such message processing improves the QoS of a network.

  • Patent number: 11933932
    Abstract: This invention is useful for determining the permeability of a geological formation using 1H NMR diffusion measurements acquired in the laboratory and using downhole 1H NMR well logging. The current technology for obtaining formation permeability downhole using NMR is not adequate for low-permeability, unconventional source rock formations with high organic content. This new method uses laboratory 1H NMR diffusion measurements for creating continuous downhole well logs of the mobile-hydrocarbon permeability of the hydrocarbon-filled pore space of downhole geological formations.

  • Patent number: 11931294
    Abstract: A treatment probe for treating an eye of a patient includes an elongate body that defines a handle and a treatment fiber that is housed within the elongate body. The treatment fiber is configured to deliver treatment light energy to the eye. A contact member is disposed on an end of the elongate body. The contact member has a contact surface for positioning on a surface of the eye, two side edges that are positioned on opposite sides of the contact surface, and a fluid channel. The contact surface conforms to the shape of the eye's sclera and the two side edges are shaped to direct fluid that is present on the surface of the eye toward the fluid channel when the contact member is moved laterally across the surface of the eye. The fluid aggregates within the fluid channel and contacts a distal end of the treatment fiber.

  • Patent number: 11921069
    Abstract: The following invention is used for determining the relative permeability of a fluid in a rock for three different phases: water, oil, and gas, in both conventional and unconventional formations. The permeability of a phase describes how much it can flow in porous media given a pressure gradient and is useful in evaluating reservoir quality and productivity. The following invention is a method to determine the three-phase relative permeabilities in both conventional and unconventional formations using NMR restricted diffusion measurements on core with NMR-active nuclei, combined with centrifugation of the core. In addition, the tortuosity, pore size (surface-to-volume ratio), fluid-filled porosity, and permeability is determined for each of the three phases in a rock.

  • Patent number: 11922375
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for providing security data points from an electronic message are presented. A system can determine a first interne protocol (IP) address of a computing device in response to a user of the computing device opening an email sent to an email address corresponding to a particular electronic account of the user, the email comprising an IP address tracking mechanism. The system can also compare the first IP address with one or more second IP addresses corresponding to one or more electronic accesses of the particular electronic account. Furthermore, the system can determine if an account access anomaly exists in regard to the particular electronic account based on a result of the comparing. The system can also implement a security measure impacting an ability of the particular electronic account to conduct one or more transactions in response to the account access anomaly existing for the particular electronic account.

  • Publication number: 20240037009
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to retaining a log entry in response to detection of a respective triggering event occurring within a computer network. This triggering event may result in a set of processes being performed. A computer system may determine a trace signature for the log entry. This trace signature may track information related to the set of processes. The computer system may compute, using the trace signature, a log retention value for the log entry. This log retention value may be computed using weight factors for ones of the set of processes. The computer system may retain the log entry within a log file according to a retention period that corresponds to the log retention value.

  • Patent number: 11870801
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for mitigating network-based attacks, brute-force attacks, enumeration account takeover type attacks, and generally attacks that might result in unauthorized access to user accounts, denial-of-service, loss of functionality to users, etc. Authenticating a user at an end-point of a network may occur using an activator. In some instances, an authentication module (e.g. on a server) receives and validates a key activator. If the key activator is valid, the authentication module is activated. After the authentication module is activated, the authentication module may receive and authenticate a security credential, such as a password, that is associated with the user. If the authentication module receives the security credential without being activated, the authentication module may not authenticate the security credential, even if the security credential is a valid credential.

  • Patent number: 11863526
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to dynamically routing network traffic between defense layers. For example, in various embodiments, a server system may implement a traffic distribution module that is operable to distribute a particular type of network traffic across multiple different defense layers. The traffic distribution module may receive a first set of requests that have been identified as being indicative of that particular type of network traffic and then route this first set of requests across the different defense layers based on a set of distribution weightage values. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques include determining an updated set of distribution weightage values based on an effectiveness of the defense layers in mitigating the particular type of network traffic. In such embodiments, the traffic distribution module may then use this updated set of distribution weightage values to route a second set of network traffic across the various defense layers.
