Publication number: 20240146667Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing intent-based orchestration using network parsimony trees. In various embodiments, in response to receiving a request for network services that comprises desired characteristics and performance parameters for the requested network services without information regarding specific hardware, hardware type, location, or network, a computing system might generate a request-based parsimony tree based on the desired characteristics and performance parameters. The computing system might access, from a datastore, a plurality of network-based parsimony trees that are each generated based on measured network metrics, might compare the request-based parsimony tree with each of one or more network-based parsimony trees to determine a fitness score for each network-based parsimony tree, and might identify a best-fit network-based parsimony tree based on the fitness scores.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: Level 3 Communications, LLCInventors: Kevin M.

Patent number: 11973772Abstract: Conventional email filtering services are not suitable for recognizing sophisticated malicious emails, and therefore may allow sophisticated malicious emails to reach inboxes by mistake. Introduced here are threat detection platforms designed to take an integrative approach to detecting security threats. For example, after receiving input indicative of an approval from an individual to access past email received by employees of an enterprise, a threat detection platform can download past emails to build a machine learning (ML) model that understands the norms of communication with internal contacts (e.g., other employees) and/or external contacts (e.g., vendors). By applying the ML model to incoming email, the threat detection platform can identify security threats in real time in a targeted manner.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Abnormal Security CorporationInventors: Sanjay Jeyakumar, Jeshua Alexis Bratman, Dmitry Chechik, Abhijit Bagri, Evan Reiser, Sanny Xiao Lang Liao, Yu Zhou Lee, Carlos Daniel Gasperi, Kevin Lau, Kai Jiang, Su Li Debbie Tan, Jeremy Kao, Cheng-Lin Yeh

Publication number: 20240133235Abstract: In one aspect, a leveling assembly for adjusting the levelness or skew angle of a bottom rail of a covering for an architectural structure includes at least one movable or slideable component configured to be moved or slid laterally relative to the bottom rail or a headrail of the covering to adjust the length(s) along which one or more of the lift cords extend within the bottom rail or headrail, which, in turn, adjusts the effective length of such lift cord(s) defined between the bottom rail and the headrail of the covering. Such adjustment of the effective length(s) of the lift cord(s) results in the horizontal orientation or skew angle of the bottom rail being varied, thereby allowing the levelness of the bottom rail to be adjusted, as desired.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Jeffrey Travis Stout, Alberto Alexander Gonzalez, Justin Lin Zhu, Kevin Macaraeg Daffon

Patent number: 11888034Abstract: Transistor structures employing metal chalcogenide channel materials may be formed where a chalcogen is introduced into at least a portion of a precursor material that comprises reactive metal(s). The precursor material may be substantially metallic, or may be a metallic oxide (e.g., an oxide semiconductor). The metal(s) may be transition, Group II, Group III, Group V elements, or alloys thereof. An oxide of one or more such metals (e.g., IGZO) may be converted into a chalcogenide (e.g., IGZSx or IGZSex) having semiconducting properties. The chalcogenide formed in this manner may be only a few monolayers in thickness (and may be more thermally stable than many oxide semiconductors. Where not all of the precursor material is converted, a transistor structure may retain the precursor material, for example as part of a transistor channel or a gate dielectric. Backend transistors including metal chalcogenide channel materials may be fabricated over silicon CMOS circuitry.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2019Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Abhishek A.

Patent number: 11830768Abstract: Integrated circuit (IC) interconnect lines having line breaks and line bridges within one interconnect level that are based on a single lithographic mask pattern. Multi-patterning may be employed to define a grating structure of a desired pitch in a first mask layer. Breaks and bridges between the grating structures may be derived from a second mask layer through a process-based selective occlusion of openings defined in the second mask layer that are below a threshold minimum lateral width. Portions of the grating structure underlying openings defined in the second mask layer that exceed the threshold minimum lateral width are removed. Trenches in an underlayer may then be etched based on a union of the remainder of the grating structure and the occluded openings in the second mask layer. The trenches may then be backfilled to form the interconnect lines.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2021Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Kevin Lin, Christopher J.
