Abstract: A method for cross read mitigation in a monitoring station for vehicles carrying respective wireless tags having tag identifiers includes: receiving, from a first tag sensor disposed to detect wireless tag signals in a first lane of the monitoring station, a first tag read containing a tag identifier; receiving, from a second tag sensor disposed to detect further wireless tag signals in a second lane, adjacent to the first lane, of the monitoring station, a second tag read containing the tag identifier; in response to receiving the first and second tag reads, providing an updated tag detection parameter to each of the first and second tag sensors; receiving, from one of the first and second tag sensors, a third tag read containing the tag identifier; and in response to receiving the third tag read, instructing the one of the first and second tag sensors to report the tag identifier to a monitoring server.

Abstract: Techniques and architecture are described for providing a service, e.g., a security service such as a firewall, across different virtual networks/VRFs/VPN IDs. The techniques and architecture provide modifications in enterprise computing fabrics by modifying pull-based overlay protocols such as, for example, locator/identifier separation protocol (LISP), border gateway protocol ethernet virtual private network (BGP EVPN), etc. A map request carries additional information to instruct a map-server that even though mapping (destination prefix and firewall service RLOC for the destination) is known within the map-server's own virtual network/VRF for firewall service insertion, the map-server still should do a lookup across virtual networks/VRFs and discover the final destination's DGT (destination group tag) and include that in the map reply.

Abstract: A method performed by an electronic device for generating a slow motion video includes obtaining plural image frames captured at a frame rate from a camera of the electronic device, detecting motion information in a first image frame from among the plural image frames, and performing an interpolation operation using one or more image frames from among the plural image frames. The one or more image frames are image frames obtained during a predetermined time after the first image frame in which the motion information is detected. A second image frame obtained before the first image frame in which the motion information is detected is discarded from the electronic device. A third image frame obtained after the predetermined time from the first image frame in which the motion information is detected is discarded from the electronic device.

Abstract: Embodiments include an interface processing system for displaying interrelated hierarchical building system models. The interface processing system can include memory and a processor allocation to load an executable asset from a data store to instantiate an instance of a building management service that can receive from a client application executing an operator interface on a client device, a request to display a visual representation of an asset located in a building. The service can query an asset database including structured data associated with the asset. Location data can be used to generate a digital model of a building system location associated with the asset. The building management service can retrieve structured model data for the asset and system level components and extract, from a set of asset schemas, a hierarchical relationship between the asset, locations and the system level components to generate an interactive visual representation of the building system location.

Abstract: A method and system for determining whether a consensus has been achieved for adding a block to a distributed ledger. The system receives a candidate block to add to the distributed ledger and receives block approvals of approving participants for the candidate block. The system calculates a total block approval stake that the approving participants have in the distributed ledger. The system identifies a total stake that participants have in the distributed ledger. When the total block approval stake is at least a threshold fraction of the total skate, the system indicates that the consensus has been achieved for adding the candidate block to the distributed ledger.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus, and program products that can generate scaled-down load test models for testing real-world loads are disclosed herein. One method includes providing a test environment of a system including multiple nodes. The test environment includes virtual nodes corresponding to the system nodes and each virtual node functions under a virtual load similar to each corresponding node functioning under a real-world load. The method further includes utilizing a machine learning algorithm to repeatedly apply at least one virtual load to the virtual node(s) in the test environment until a scaled-down load test model mimicking the system under a pre-defined real-world load is generated. Here, the virtual load(s) applied to the virtual node(s) is/are comparatively smaller relative to each of corresponding real-world loads for the node(s) defining the pre-defined real-world load. Systems, apparatus, and program products that include and/or perform the methods are also disclosed herein.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for providing for trust in a distributed environment are disclosed. In a distributed environment, various devices may be remote to one another and may interact with one another via one or more operable connections. Through the operable connections, various communications may be exchanged. However, the operable connections may not natively support authentication of any particular device in the distributed system. Consequently, entities in the distributed system may not intrinsically trust that the communications received through the distributed environment are authentic. The entities of the system may mutually authenticate one another prior to trusting communications from the other entities. For example, in a scenario where a client wishes to access data hosted by a data source, the client and data source may go through a process of mutually authenticating one another. By doing so, a trusted environment may be established.
