Patent number: 12233646Abstract: The print head cover (83) of an electrostatic deflection inkjet printer is made of a material having an electrical surface resistivity of no more than 1012 ohms per square or an electrical volume resistivity of no more than 109 ohm metres and is electrically connected to an earth line (93, 97). This prevents build-up of electric charge on the cover (83). The resistance from the surface of the cover (83) to a place where a cover earth line (93) joins a signal earth line (97) or enters the umbilical (7) is at least 16000 times the resistance from that place to earth. This prevents an electrostatic discharge to the cover (83) disrupting the electronic circuits. The high resistance earth connection for the cover (83) avoids the need for an earthing wire braid in the umbilical (7). The cover (83) may be moulded from an antistatic or static dissipative material.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2020Date of Patent: February 25, 2025Assignee: Linx Printing Technologies LimitedInventor: Stephen John Cooke

Publication number: 20250056375Abstract: An approach for detecting unplanned changes in the link performance of a delay tolerant network and making automatic and immediate adjustments to the contact plans of the network to provide route revisions that will reallocate traffic load to improve network performance. Physical layer information is used to predict link performance and to adapt route computation to avoid disruption and to optimize contact performance. Prediction is based on advanced software defined radio observable phenomena such as signal to noise ratio, background noise measurements, and forward error correction bit error counts. This approach can enable a delay-tolerant network node to recompute routes and revise bundle forwarding decisions automatically in response to changes in the properties of the communication link.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2024Publication date: February 13, 2025Applicant: TCT Networks CorporationInventors: Ronny Bull, Michael Moore, John Cook, David Cook, Scott Burleigh, Joshua Waszkiewicz, Joel Seif

Patent number: 11863563Abstract: The appropriate scoping of an access policy can be determined using the observed access and usage of various resources covered under that policy. Information about access requests received over a period of time can be logged, and actions represented in the log data can be mapped to the permissions of the access policy. A new access policy can be generated that includes grant permissions only for those actions that were received and/or granted during the monitored period of time. The new policy can be processed using policy logic to ensure that changes in permission comply with rules or policies for the target resources. The new policy can be at least partially implemented, or can be provided to an authorized user, who can choose to adopt or deny the new policy, or to accept some of the recommendations for modifying the current policy.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2018Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Neha Rungta, Tyler Stuart Bray, Kasper Søe Luckow, Alexander Watson, Jeff Puchalski, John Cook, Michael Gough
