  • Publication number: 20240119095
    Abstract: A computing system is described, where the computing system includes a processor and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform several acts. The acts include receiving a query from an application executing on a client computing device that is in network communication with the computing system. The acts also include searching a computer-readable index of items based upon the query, identifying an item based upon the searching of the computer-readable index, transmitting the query to a computer-implemented model, and obtaining content generated by the computer-implemented model, where the computer-implemented model generated the content based upon the query. The acts further include returning at least one of the item or the content to the client computing device for presentment by way of the application executing on the client computing device.

  • Patent number: 11768808
    Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide non-native functionality to a distributed network for distributed ledger token verification and event permissioning. The disclosed technology receives a transfer event request from a first node associated with a first token storage, where the transfer event request corresponds to movement of a requested token amount that is associated with at least one token. In response, the transfer event request is inserted into a pending transfer log that is configured to queue pending transfer event requests. A determination is made regarding a first permission based on the currently queued pending transfer event requests, and as a result, the transfer event request is transmitted to the distributed network based on the first permission, where such transfer causes the requested movement of the requested token amount.

  • Patent number: 11755542
    Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide non-native functionality to a distributed network for events management on a blockchain via locking queued distributed network tokens. The disclosed technology receives a transfer event request from a first node associated with a first token storage, where the transfer event request corresponds to movement of a requested token amount that is associated with at least one token. A pending transfer event log that queues pending transfer event requests is accessed and modified by adding the transfer event request to the queue of pending transfer event requests. This causes the at least one token associated with the transfer event request to be locked, thereby preventing its association with other transfer events. The transfer event request is then transmitted to the distributed network, whereby the distributed network executes the movement of the at least one token.

  • Patent number: 11724248
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to copper-containing molecular sieve catalysts that are highly suitable for the treatment of exhaust containing NOx pollutants. The copper-containing molecular sieve catalysts contain ion-exchanged copper as Cu+2 and Cu(OH)+1, and DRIFT spectroscopy of the catalyst exhibits perturbed T-O-T vibrational peaks corresponding to the Cu+2 and Cu(OH)+1. In spectra taken of the catalytic materials, a ratio of the Cu+2 to the Cu(OH)+1 peak integration areas preferably can be ?1. The copper-containing molecular sieve catalysts are aging stable such that the peak integration area percentage of the Cu+2 peak (area Cu+2/(area Cu+2+area Cu(OH)+1)) increases by ?20% upon aging at 800° C. for 16 hours in the presence of 10% H2O/air, compared to the fresh state.

  • Patent number: 11494342
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure enable distributed network request permissioning receiving, from a first node associated with a token storage, a transfer event request for a movement of a requested token amount relative to the token storage via a distributed network. A pending transfer event log is accessed that includes a total pending token amount associated with pending tokens of pending transfer event requests with respect to the token storage, and a total available token amount associated with available tokens in the first token storage. A permission is determined based on the total available token amount exceeding a sum of the total pending token amount and the requested token amount. An updated total pending token amount is determined by adding the transfer event request record to the pending transfer event log, and the transfer event request is transmitted to the distributed network to perform the movement.

  • Patent number: 11494343
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure enable distributed network request permissioning by receiving, from a first node associated with a token storage, a transfer event request for a movement of a requested token amount relative to the token storage via a distributed network and accessing a pending transfer event log recorded in an event record database, the pending transfer event log including other transfer event request records associated with other transfer event requests. A denial rejecting the transfer event request is determined based on the pending transfer event log. The transfer event request and the denial are transmitted to an approver node having supervisory permissions to approve or disapprove of event requests. A permission is received from the second node to approve the transfer event request, and a transfer event write permission determination is received by the distributed network that causes the movement to be performed.

  • Patent number: 11379429
    Abstract: Systems and methods enable permission events management on a blockchain. Embodiments include receiving a transfer event request for a movement of a number of tokens relative to a token storage via the blockchain. An event log record database is accessed which includes a total number of tokens of pending transfer event request records, and a total number of tokens in the token storage. A first permission is determined for generating a transfer event request record to the event log record database based on the number of the tokens exceeding the total logged number of tokens. An updated total logged number of tokens is determined with the transfer event request record and the transfer event request is transmitted to the distributed network. An updated total number of tokens in the token storage is determined based on the transfer event log record and a blockchain write permission determination.

  • Patent number: 11297231
    Abstract: An Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE) is equipped with a power sourcing equipment (PSE) supplying a direct current (DC) voltage to a powered device (PD) through Ethernet cables, and an Ethernet switch which includes a packet switching controller including a central processing unit (CPU) controlling the ON/OFF states of at least one pair of DC voltage output and the onset of an initialization process of the PSE; the Ethernet switch further includes a non-volatile memory storing a firmware which provides a reboot process of the CPU such that when the UPS powered by PoE is undergoing the reboot process, the PSE can continue to supply the DC voltage. A first parameter PersistentPoE and a second parameter PPoE_flag are used for setting the ON/OFF states of DC voltage output of PoE.

  • Publication number: 20200225235
    Abstract: A highly sensitive method of detecting GASP-1 or a fragment thereof in a sample is provided. The method comprises (a) exposing a surface to a sample comprising GASP-1 or a fragment thereof; (b) immobilizing an anti-GASP-1 detection antibody to the surface; (c) measuring the amount of the anti-GASP-1 detection antibody immobilized to the surface; and (d) determining the presence of the GASP-1 or a fragment thereof in the sample based on the amount of the anti-GASP-1 detection antibody immobilized to the surface. A coating agent may be immobilized to the surface in step (a), and the anti-GASP-1 detection antibody may be immobilized to the surface via the coating agent, directly or indirectly. The coating agent may be selected from the group consisting of a first GASP-1 fragment, a conjugate of a protein (e.g., bovine serum albumin (BSA)) and a GASP-1 peptide, a capture antibody against a microvesicle or exosomal surface biomarker, a capture antibody against a second GASP-1 fragment, and a combination thereof.
