  • Patent number: 11423751
    Abstract: In an Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS), a radio frequency identification (RFID) subsystem of an EAS system, can detect a presence of an RFID tag in an RFID interrogation zone associated with a boundary of a controlled area. The EAS system can first determine that the RFID tag is not authorized to leave the controlled area across the boundary. A radar subsystem of the EAS system can second determine, within a first window of time around the first detecting, whether an object in motion is associated with the boundary. The EAS system can alarm based upon both determining that the RFID tag is not authorized to leave the controlled area and determining that the object in motion is associated with the boundary.

  • Publication number: 20220249790
    Abstract: A ventilation catheter and airway management system is described to create conditions that tend to clear secretions during the normal conduct of ventilation by having an exclusive outflow channel and/or to use a programed cuff leak combined with PEEP to protect the airway. The secretion clearing endotracheal tube may include separate inflow and outflow paths as part of a double lumen, to facilitate breathing when placed in a patient. The double lumen portion intersecting to form a single lumen for protrusion into the intratracheal region allowing the new inspiratory fluid from the airway management system to flow into a patient and the used inspiratory fluid from the patient to flow back to the airway management system. A pharyngeal suction component removes fluid from the intratracheal region via periodic suctioning.

  • Publication number: 20220245257
    Abstract: A method for executing a second-order taint analysis on library code may include generating, by executing a first-order taint analysis on the library code starting at a sink, a first execution path from a load instruction to the sink. The load instruction may perform: reading a first value using a first global identifier. The method may further include determining a store instruction by matching the load instruction and the store instruction. The store instruction may perform: writing a second value using a second global identifier. The method may further include, generating a second execution path from the store instruction to the load instruction, generating, by executing the first-order taint analysis on the library code starting at the store instruction, a third execution path from an entry point to the store instruction, and forming a potential second-order taint flow by joining the first, second, and third execution paths.
