Abstract: A static mixer for an injection molding machine comprises a plate having an inlet face, an axially opposed outlet face, and a longitudinal axis extending therebetween. A plurality of bores extend through the plate from the inlet face to the outlet face. Each bore extends along a bore axis that is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis. The inlet face comprises an inlet face peripheral portion and an inlet face central portion. The outlet face comprises an outlet face peripheral portion, and an outlet face central portion. A core extends longitudinally between the inlet face central portion and the outlet face central portion.

Abstract: Detecting network services based on network flow data is disclosed. Using a networking device, network flow data is obtained for a plurality of endpoints of a telecommunications network. Each endpoint of the plurality of endpoints is uniquely described by data comprising an IP address, a port, and a communication protocol. For each endpoint of a set of at least one endpoint selected from the plurality of endpoints, a plurality of peers of the endpoint is determined by detecting communication between the endpoint and the plurality of peers based on the network flow data. For each peer of a set of peers selected from the plurality of peers, a difference between a number of peers of the endpoint and a number of peers of said each peer is determined based on the network flow data. It is determined if the endpoint is a service based on the difference determined for each peer of the set of peers. Network management is performed based on the determination of whether the endpoint is a service.

Abstract: Detecting DGA-based malware is disclosed. In an embodiment, a number of domain name server requests originating from a particular host among a plurality of hosts is determined. The number of domain name server requests are directed to one or more domain name servers. A number of internet protocol addresses contacted by the particular host is determined. Based on the number of domain name server requests and the number of internet protocol addresses contacted existence of malware on the particular host is determined.

Abstract: An injection unit for an injection molding machine includes a nozzle for dispensing melt to a mold, and a valve housing having a first port in fluid communication with the nozzle. The valve housing has a second port and a third port. A plasticizing barrel is in fluid communication with the second port. A shooting pot is in fluid communication the third port. A valve closure member is mounted in the valve housing. The valve closure member is moveable between a first position in which the first port is in fluid communication with the third port and in fluid isolation of the second port, and a second position in which the second port is in fluid communication with the third port and in fluid isolation of the first port. When in at least one of the first and second positions, fluid communication is provided between the respective ports through a gap provided between an outer surface of the closure member and an inner surface of the valve housing.
