  • Patent number: 11520895
    Abstract: An electronic device, a method, and a non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing instructions for dynamically verifying trusted applications (TAs) during a boot sequence. The electronic device includes a memory and a processor operably connected to the memory. The processor executes instructions stored in the memory to cause the electronic device to initialize a kernel boot sequence in response to confirming that executable codes for booting the electronic device are from a trusted binary and then verify one or more registered TAs during the kernel boot sequence. Completion of the kernel boot sequence is based on verification results of the set of registered TAs.

  • Publication number: 20170349463
    Abstract: A mobile device for biological treatment of bioreactor-type wastewater with a submerged membrane enabling treatment of greywater and blackwater has an inlet duct for effluent to be treated and an outlet duct for treated and filtered water connected to a permeate pump. The device includes a container, the interior volume of which has a parallelepiped appearance with two large vertical lateral sides, and a membrane filter having an assembly of parallel, planar filtration membranes also with a vertical appearance. The membranes are connected to a downstream collector collecting the filtered water and connected to the outlet duct. The permeate pump ensures a transmembrane flow less than the subcritical flow. At least one diffuser of fine air bubbles is located at the base of each column. Each diffuser is connected to a regulating solenoid valve and to pump, ensuring therein an airflow greater than or equal to 10 Nm3/h per diffuser.
