  • Publication number: 20240249353
    Abstract: A computing system configured for trustless trading of digital assets via a communications network includes a raft consensus-driven computer network having trusted execution environment (TEE) enclaves for processing security-sensitive programs, and a rich execution environment (REE) for processing of non-security-sensitive programs, a software package for a digital asset exchange executed in the TEE enclaves, the software package configured for receiving an order, transmitting a request to an owner of a digital asset for an electronic signature, receiving an electronic signature from the owner authorizing the order, verifying the electronic signature, and executing the order, wherein the computer network is configured for executing third party attestation on the software package executing in the TEE enclaves, documenting an outcome of the step of executing third party attestation via persistent storage of the outcome, and providing access to the persistent storage of the outcome to parties and operations outs

  • Patent number: 6133816
    Abstract: A novel shape memory alloy electrical switch is disclosed, including both momentary and especially a latching relay. The switch/relay disclosed is particularly useful in low power control of appliances, including i.a. refrigerators. Used with a microprocessor, microcontroller, or like device to control the shape memory alloy switch/relay, an adaptive control routine may be included which facilitates an especially low-power dissipation, highly effective appliance control module, especially suitable for refrigerators. The disclosed refrigerator control module can be manufactured at low cost with high reliability.
