Abstract: Embodiments determine the density of materials and objects imaged using computed tomography (CT). An embodiment co-images a material of unknown density with a calibrant of known density. The digitally reconstructed CT images are segmented into the unknown material phase and the known material phases of the calibrant. Image intensity histograms of the unknown material are obtained. Using the known calibrant densities, an intensity-density mapping is calculated to determine the unknown material density based on its measured CT intensity. The method described herein utilizes a novel deconvolution of the intensity histograms to correct for CT imaging artifacts that impact the material phase intensities. The density of micronized materials and features such as particles, microspheres, porosity, and multiphase composites which are difficult to measure with conventional techniques can be measured using the embodiments.

Abstract: Dynamically tailored trust for secure application-server networking and advanced enterprise security is provided. A system can individually assess the security posture of each application connecting to the Internet from each client device in an enterprise. For each application, the system tailors a security mode of the Internet connection based on the security posture of the application. Assessment of the security posture of an application is a comprehensive inventory of the security of the application, the security of the device hosting the application, the rights and security of the user, security attributes of the intended service or website being accessed, the security of the communication channel, and so forth. A network-based controller communicates with an agent running within a secure boot mode of each client device to select a security mode for application-service connection, including lean-trust direct access to the Internet, secure VPN-like access, or no access to the Internet.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and methods for creating and maintaining a virtual subnetwork of telecommunication base stations within a wider telecommunication network. In an LTE-based example, the subnetwork includes a connection aggregator that is coupled between the plurality of eNodeBs internal to the subnetwork and one or more MMEs in the outer network. The connection aggregator intercepts all control plane messages between the MMEs and the internal eNodeBs, remaps eNodeB identifiers, and transmits repackaged messages so that the outer network sees the entire subnetwork as a single “giant” eNodeB. The disclosed system and methods enables the operator of the virtual subnetwork to add and shut down eNodeBs as demand for connectivity fluctuates, and to do so such that all changes are unseen by the outer network.

Abstract: The present discussion relates to structures and devices to facilitate application of an ultrasound therapy beam to a target anatomic region in a replicable manner. In certain aspects, an alignment controller may be used to analyze images generated by an ultrasound transducer. The alignment controller may then send a communication to indicate the energy application device is positioned to provide therapy to the target region, or if the device needs to be repositioned. The alignment control of the energy application device provides guided repeatable targeting of the target anatomic region, even when in non-clinical settings.
