Abstract: An entity-based platform stores a database of entity mentions and related, entity-based information obtained by processing text in a corpus of documents such as content from a public network or content from a document management system. The platform may analyze changes to a previously-processed document in order to align mentions in the modified document to mentions in a prior document and/or to identify new mentions not present in the previously-processed document. As the underlying documents in the corpus change over time, this advantageously permits sustained use of knowledge graphs and other entity-based representations or analysis linked to specific entity mentions.

Abstract: An improved method and system for heating and cooling an electronic device, when internal temperatures are below safe operating ranges. To do so, the system selectively heats or cools each zone of the electronic device. This may be done by individual heaters and/or cooling system for each separate zones. Alternatively, or in addition too, the system can selectively open and close baffles, causing fresh ambient air to enter and/or recirculate heated air in a device's enclosure. This keeps sensitive components of the computing device, such as processors and memory from suffering damage, by operating them at temperatures that are either too cold or too warm.

Abstract: Connections among two different entities are identified by processing a collection of documents to identify one or more documents that contain co-occurring mentions of each of the two different entities. This relationship may be graphically displayed in a user interface with an icon or the like for each of the two entities, along with a graphical link interconnecting the entities. The graphical link can be an active element of the user interface that responds to user interactions by providing access to evidence within the collection of documents that substantiates the connection between the two entities. In one aspect, a search input form field in a user interface may be used to explicitly request documents that substantiate a relationship between two entities. In another aspect, a user may ground entity mentions by explicitly selecting documents that mention an entity of interest.

Abstract: An optical fiber draw system that prints one or more fiber identifiers on optical fibers is described. In one example, the optical fiber draw system includes a draw furnace, a coating device, a marking device, and a lighting device. The draw furnace generates a glass fiber from a glass preform and the coating device is configured to apply a curable coating composition to the glass fiber. The lighting device applies an ultraviolet or other curing light to form a coating from the curable coating composition. The application and curing of a curable coating composition can be completed one or more times to form one or more coatings on the glass fiber. The marking device applies a tracer marking fluid to a curable coating composition or coating and can be placed at one or more positions along the process pathway.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention may provide an improved method for pre-heating an electronic device such as an information handling system, when internal temperatures are below safe operating ranges. To do so, the system selectively heats the entire device or select zones of the electronic device for a predetermined amount of time when the system is restarted after a period of time sufficient to bring the system to ambient temperatures. The predetermined amount of time is determined based on measured ambient temperatures. Using a table that corresponds the ambient temperatures to a time that a component needs to heat up to a nominal temperature in a zone, the predetermined time can be calculated.

Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) are assigned to each of the plurality of tenant entities to define a plurality of personal networks on the property network using dynamic VLAN assignment. Onboarding requests are received from one or more user devices on a specific personal network of the plurality of personal networks. The onboarding requests are processed in a manner permitting intercommunication among the one or more user devices within the specific personal network, to take place across the property network.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments described in this disclosure generally pertain to systems and methods to handle packages transported in a delivery vehicle. In an example embodiment, a computer that is provided in a vehicle receives a command related to delivery of a package. The command may be associated, for example, with rerouting of the vehicle due to various reasons such as, for example, due to a change in a delivery schedule and/or a delivery priority. The computer may respond to the command by operating an unmanned package moving apparatus to move the package from one location in a cargo area of the vehicle to another location in the cargo area while the vehicle is in motion and prior to the vehicle reaching a delivery destination for the package. In an example implementation, the unmanned package moving apparatus includes a bed of rollers that are operated by servomotors under control of the computer.

Abstract: Methods and material for treating cancer (e.g., estrogen receptor negative (ER?) and estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer) are described herein. For example, methods and materials for targeting degradation of protein kinase C type beta (PKC?1) polypeptides in mammals with ER? cancers are described.

The tie-in system (47, 48) comprises: a spool piece (61, 71) that in one end is adapted to be attached to the transfer pipe (13, 14) and in the other end to be connected to a pipe element (58, 68) arranged on the support unit (12), a chute device (59, 69) that is adapted to be attached to the support unit (12) and to accommodate the transfer pipe (13, 14) such that the chute device (59, 69) supports the transfer pipe (13, 14) and takes up and transfers vertical and transverse forces from the transfer pipe (13, 14) to the support unit (12), a tie-in device (77, 79) that is connected to the spool piece (61, 71) and is adapted to be connected to a tie-in member (76, 78) on the support unit (12) such that tension loads are transferred from the transfer pipe (13, 14) to the support unit (12).

Abstract: A method for processing a cryptographic operation request includes receiving, at a hardware security module (HSM), the cryptographic operation request including a cryptographic key and at least one authorization token, determining, by the HSM, whether an access control list (ACL) associated with the cryptographic key of the cryptographic operation request is authorized to govern access to the cryptographic key, and validating, by the HSM, the at least one authorization token. When the at least one authorization token is valid and the ACL is authorized to govern access to the cryptographic key of the cryptographic operation request, the method includes processing, by the HSM, the cryptographic operation request.

Abstract: A ring toss game apparatus including a ring; a line suspending the ring from a support for manually induced movement of the ring; a housing for mounted disposition a predetermined length away from the ring; a hook mounted to the housing for ring capture through the hook opening; means for providing a control signal responsive to the hook operatively capturing the ring; and means for engaging the ring and moving the ring off the hook wherein games may be played by urging the ring toward the hook with the objective of each iteration being operative engagement of the ring with the hook, resulting in operation of the means for engaging the ring and moving the ring off the hook, thereby allowing another attempt at hook engagement without the player having to approach the hook and manually remove the ring.

Abstract: A journal of operations persistently stores a collection of user and machine interactions with documents, concepts within documents, and relationships/mentions among such documents and concepts. A knowledge graph or other visual expression can be used to provide an interactive format for user interactions with this information, and to visually display the accumulated information in the journal of operations on user's device of choice. Such accumulations are often called aggregations or aggregates. Both human users and computer users such as automated recommendation engines, machine learning algorithms, and the like can interact with the journal of operations to facilitate computer-assisted discovery and organization of data around a topic of interest to the human user. The resulting journal of operations and aggregations of those operations such as a knowledge graph or other visual expression(s) also provides a useful medium for sharing knowledge with other users and collaborating on investigation of a topic.
