Abstract: A brazing joint, a brazing method, and a device for promoting solder rheology and gas overflow are provided. The brazing joint includes a first base metal, a second base metal, and a brazing seam located therebetween. The brazing seam is formed by filling a solder in a gap formed by welding surfaces of the first and the second base metal and melting it to connect the first and the second base metal. The brazing seam is a concave-shaped brazing seam. The gap defines a first distance and a second distance, the first distance is located at an edge of the gap, the second distance is located at the edge or an inside of the gap, the first distance is greater than the second distance, and a curved surface is formed between the location of the first distance and the location of the second distance for transition.

Abstract: Provided are a method, an apparatus and a device for activating a vehicle. The method includes: acquiring at least one set of operations for a password input key of the vehicle; acquiring an activation password of the vehicle according to the at least one set of operations; and activating the vehicle according to the activation password; wherein the activation password includes at least one character, and each character of the at least one character is acquired according to the number of operations and/or an operation duration of each set of the at least one set of operations.

Abstract: Techniques and systems for performing a network activity within a network. The technique includes assigning one or a plurality of network devices subnets with network devices for performing network activities. Network devices within the assigned network device subnets can be assigned to act as a primary network device and a backup network device. The primary network device can perform the network activity. The backup network devices can monitor the primary network device and continue performing the network activities if the primary network device fails or is rogue.

Abstract: A technique for network authentication interoperability involves initiating an authentication procedure on a first network, authenticating on a second network, and allowing access at the first network. The technique can include filtering access to a network, thereby restricting access to users with acceptable credentials. Offering a service that incorporates these techniques can enable incorporation of the techniques into an existing system with minimal impact to network configuration.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for accessing physical resources, is used to restrict access to physical resources of other light system kernel Light OSs by a first Light OS in a multi-kernel operating system and ensure security of accessing physical resources among the Light OSs. A method, executed by secure firmware, includes: receiving a physical address corresponding to a physical resource to be accessed by the first Light OS; determining whether the physical address corresponding to the physical resource is out of bounds; and if the physical address corresponding to the physical resource is within bounds, sending an access continuity signal to the first Light OS; or if the physical address corresponding to the physical resource is out of bounds, sending an access error signal to the first Light OS.

Abstract: A network monitoring and control application suitable for use by teachers and other users is implemented using wireless access points and does not require specific software to be installed on client network devices. The application uses student and class information to organize network client information. Upon receiving a monitoring request, one or more classes assigned to the teacher are identified by accessing class data. Class data is accessed to identify students assigned to the class and the client network devices used by these students. One wireless access point providing wireless network connections to at least a portion of the students' devices is selected to collect network activity information from the students' devices and presents this information to the teacher. The teacher may also use the selected wireless access point to disable students' network access or to redirect students' devices to a network resource.
