Abstract: Multi-envelope encryption provides redundancy for highly-available storage of encrypted data. Data, such as a “snapshot” representing values of every block of a block storage volume or device at a specific point in time, may be encrypted before storage to prevent unauthorized access to the data. To further protect the data and prevent unauthorized access to the data, additional security measures may be taken. Multiple copies of the data key that is to be used to decrypt the data may be encrypted and stored separately from the encrypted data as envelopes. The different envelopes may each be encrypted using envelope keys. If one envelope key is later lost or otherwise becomes unavailable, the encrypted data can still be accessed by using a different envelope key to recover the data key and decrypt the data.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an apparatus and a method for implementing a USB-IF certified programmable power supply algorithm on a USB-C port. The method involves using a software code running on a microcontroller which monitors voltage and current being supplied by a power supply controller IC on a VBUS line of the USB-C port. Based on the detected voltage/current corrective actions are taken by the software code to bring the voltage/current to accepted levels as requested by a port partner. Further, a PPS accelerator is configured to compute an average or a new current/voltage value and provide the computed average or a new current/voltage value to a microcontroller for subsequent decision making and for other related assessment process.

Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein improve existing systems by generating a data object indicative of a defined group of users of a communication session, messages being communicated between the defined group of users, and permissions defined for the defined group of users to access content of the communication session. In response to receiving a selection of a message set including a subset of the messages of the defined group for corresponding with a non-member user who is not a member of the defined group, the system updates the first data object to include the selected message set and subsequent messages exchanged between the non-member user and a subset of the users in the defined group directed to the selected message set, and permissions defined for the additional participant to limit full access to other subsequent messages in the defined group not directed to the selected message set.

Abstract: In some examples, a database system identifies a plurality of query portions in a database query that contain references to a first external table, the first external table being based on data from a remote data store coupled to the database system over a network. The database system creates a common spool portion that includes projections and selections of the plurality of query portions, and rewrites the plurality of query portions into rewritten query portions that refer to a spool containing an output of the common spool portion. For execution of the database query, the database system determines, as part of optimizer planning, whether to use the plurality of query portions or the common spool portion and the rewritten query portions.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to an integrated circuit of an electronic device that coordinates activities with another integrated circuit of the electronic device. The integrated circuit includes an interface circuit and a processor circuit. The interface circuit communicates over a multi-drop bus connected to multiple electronic components. The processor circuit receives an authorization request from the integrated circuit via the interface circuit and the multi-drop bus. The received authorization request relates to authorization to perform an activity on the other integrated circuit. In response to receiving the authorization request, the processor circuit determines whether the other integrated circuit is authorized to execute the activity.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer storage media are disclosed for predicting visual compatibility between a bundle of catalog items (e.g., a partial outfit) and a candidate catalog item to add to the bundle. Visual compatibility prediction may be jointly conditioned on item type, context, and style by determining a first compatibility score jointly conditioned on type (e.g., category) and context, determining a second compatibility score conditioned on outfit style, and combining the first and second compatibility scores into a unified visual compatibility score. A unified visual compatibility score may be determined for each of a plurality of candidate items, and the candidate item with the highest unified visual compatibility score may be selected to add to the bundle (e.g., fill the in blank for the partial outfit).

Abstract: Systems and methods model earth stations and other captive terrestrial sites as simulated cell sites in a radio access network (RAN) to identify potential cellular network interferers with the earth stations. A computing device selects an earth station within a geographic area of a RAN segment and model the earth station as a cell within the RAN segment, wherein the modeling creates a simulated earth station cell. The computing device obtains sector carrier data for cells in the RAN segment and scores, based on the sector carrier data, neighboring cells to the simulated earth station cell. The scoring indicates a level of potential interference of the neighboring cells with the earth station based on geo-spatial relevance. The computing device identifies projected mobility interference in neighboring cells to the earth station and provides prioritization recommendations for interference mitigation for the earth station based on the scoring and the identifying.
