Patent number: 11941134Abstract: Various hardware and software configurations are described herein which provide improved security and control over protected data. In some embodiments, a computer includes a main motherboard card coupled to all input/output devices connected to the computer, and a trusted operating system operates on the main motherboard which includes an access control module for controlling access to the protected data in accordance with rules. The trusted operating system stores the protected data in an unprotected form only on the memory devices on the main motherboard. The computer may also have a computer card coupled to the main motherboard via a PCI bus, on which is operating a guest operating system session for handling requests for data from software applications on the computer.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2022Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: INTELLECTUAL VENTURES II LLCInventors: Daniel Joseph Sturtevant, Christopher Lalancette, Michael Nathan Lack, Paul B. Schneck

Patent number: 9926672Abstract: Reinforcing fibers, such as aromatic polyamide (“aramid”) fibers, are treated by coating with or embedding in a binder such as a Fischer-Tropsch wax. The treated fibers are divided into suitably-sized units, which are added to bitumen, aggregate and other ingredients in an asphalt cement concrete mix. The units shed fibers into the mix during the manufacturing process so that the fibers are distributed fairly evenly throughout the asphalt mixture. The binder may also impart beneficial qualities to the finished asphalt concrete.Type: GrantFiled: February 29, 2016Date of Patent: March 27, 2018Assignee: Surface Tech LLCInventors: Tracy H. Lang, Joseph A. Sturtevant
