Abstract: A request to sign a provided payload is received, wherein the payload includes an automation script specified to execute on one or more management service instances. The automation script is validated, including by modifying the payload to add metadata data associated with the validation. An encrypted version of a digital signature private key that was received is sent to a credential system. An unencrypted version is received and used to sign the modified payload. The signed modified payload is provided in response to the request to sign the provided payload. The signed modified payload is configured to, in response to a request to execute the automation script on the one or more of the management service instances, be verified using a public key corresponding to the digital signature private key and allow a validation of the automation script at least in part by using the included added metadata.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving a request from a user to locate a radio station similar to a radio station currently providing content in a predefined genre to a radio receiver; accessing stored genre information compiled from a radio station scan to locate a second radio station providing content in the genre; and tuning the radio receiver to the second radio station.

Abstract: A system includes a processor configured to receive a notification request from an entity in communication with a vehicle computing system (VCS). The processor is also configured to receive notification content and parameters. The processor is further configured to validate a right of the entity to display a notification on the VCS. Also, the processor is configured to validate the content based on permitted content. The processor is additionally configured to validate the parameters based on permitted parameters and queue a notification for display following successful right, the content and parameter verification.

Abstract: One embodiment includes a system having a user interface display and at least one controller in communication with one or more transceivers. The one or more transceivers are capable of communication with one or more devices. The at least one controller is configured to receive a request to communicate with the one or more devices. The controller is further configured to establish communication with the one or more devices. The controller is further configured to transmit a request for an application list compatible with the head unit from the one or more devices based on the head unit system. The controller is further configured to receive the application list from the one or more devices and output the application list at the user interface display. The output of the application list at the user interface display includes at least one icon.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system including at least one controller in communication with one or more transceivers. The one or more transceivers are capable of communication with a device. The at least one controller configured to transmit a request for applications compatible with the at least one controller from the device based on a system identification code. The controller is further configured to receive the application list from the device based on the system identification code and output the application list at a user interface display. The output includes at least one of an icon and a description. The controller is further configured to transmit a request to launch an application based on the selection of the icon at the user interface display and receive the application data. The controller is further configured to output the application data at the user interface display.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring the gas transmission rate through contact lens material, and a method of measuring, using a test cell having an upper and lower gas chamber and separating the upper and lower chamber with a layered group of films, including a contact lens film material clamped between an upper and lower guard film, and flowing oxygen through the upper chamber and an inert gas through the lower chamber, the lower chamber being connected to a coulometric sensor to measure oxygen content in the inert gas at defined intervals, to obtain a first series of oxygen transmission rates. A second series of oxygen transmission rates are made with the same apparatus, but with the contact lens material removed from the apparatus, and the transmission rate through the contact lens material is calculated by subtracting the reciprocal of the second measured transmission rate from the reciprocal of the first measured transmission rate, then taking the reciprocal of the difference.
