  • Patent number: 10728892
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and a device for scheduling resources in an internet of vehicles system, to centrally allocate timeslot resources in the internet of vehicles system at a network side. The method includes: receiving, by a scheduling device, information of a geographical area reported by a first node and corresponding to the first node; and determining, by the scheduling device, timeslot resources capable of being scheduled within the geographical area reported by the first node, and allocating a timeslot resource from the determined timeslot resources for the first node. Each cell is divided into geographical areas, and an identical timeslot resource can be shared by non-adjacent geographical areas in an identical cell, and/or non-adjacent geographical areas in different cells. By centralized scheduling of timeslot resources, it is able to ensure communication between nodes within a predetermined range, thereby preventing impact of timeslot resources used by the nodes.

  • Patent number: 10705079
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preparing a magnetic microsphere for the separation of biological proteins. A magnetic microsphere matrix is treated by formulating and using an appropriate emulsified liquid, and modification of the surface of the magnetic microsphere matrix is realized by emulsion polymerization, thereby obtaining a magnetic microsphere coated with a polyacrylate polymer layer. Said emulsified liquid comprises the following components therein: acyclic acid monoester compounds, acyclic acid glycol compounds, initiators and optionally anionic surface active agents and water. The magnetic microsphere significantly reduces the non-specific adsorption of other proteins, without affecting the joining ability for a specific protein, when used in the separation of biological proteins. A new selection is provided to realize the separation engineering of high protein specificity adsorption.

  • Patent number: 10671744
    Abstract: Lightweight trusted execution technologies for internet-of-things devices are described. In response to a memory request at a page unit from an application executing in a current domain, the page unit is to map a current virtual address (VA) to a current physical address (PA). The policy enforcement logic (PEL) reads, from a secure domain cache (SDC), a domain value (DID) and a VA value that correspond to the current PA. The PEL grants access when the current domain and the DID correspond to the unprotected region or the current domain and the DID correspond to the secure domain region, the current domain is equal to the DID, and the current VA is equal to the VA value. The PEL grants data access and denies code access when the current domain corresponds to the secure domain region and the DID corresponds to the unprotected region.
