  • Publication number: 20170289283
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for tracking usage of applications on a mobile device that includes a virtual private network (VPN) application. The VPN application includes a rule dictionary to store a rule for each application that is executable on the mobile device. A rule comprises an identifier for the application and an associated regular expression. To create a rule, a new application is installed on the mobile device and executed to create network traffic. The network traffic from the new application is inspected and a regular expression that matches the new application is created and stored in the rules dictionary. Once the rule is stored, a usage of the application can be identified based on monitoring the network traffic and searching the rule dictionary to identify a matching application. Once a matching application is found, the usage metric of the application is updated.

  • Patent number: 9696249
    Abstract: A soot sensing system includes a soot sensor having a first element, and circuitry to an amount of soot accumulated on the element and to control heating of the element in response to the soot accumulation. An electrostatic repelling voltage (ERV) may be applied to a sensor/heater element(s) during a contamination prevention mode (CPM) to repel ash and reduce contamination of the sensor. A pulsed heating voltage (PHV) may be applied to the elements during the CPM and a pulsed ERV may be applied to the elements during the “off” period of the PHV. All voltage to the elements may be turned off during the CPM and the elements may be floating/ground. A PHV may be applied to the elements during the CPM and no voltage may be applied to the elements during the “off” period of the PHV. A heating voltage may be applied to the elements during a CPM corresponding to a cold start.

  • Patent number: 9658972
    Abstract: A hybrid mass interconnect system and universal pull-through receiver are shown and described. In one embodiment, a universal receiver for a mass interconnect system includes a frame, a connection assembly and a universal interconnect module. Typically, the receiver supports a variety of testing platforms, including PXI-based platforms, LXI-based platforms, AXIe-based platforms, and a combination thereof. In other examples, a variety of other platform relationships may be used. In particular examples, the universal interconnect module has an upper tier with a pair of spatially separated horizontal rails and a lower tier that is adjacent to the upper tier with at least one pair of spatially separated vertical rails. The result is an interconnect system and receiver for enhancing the organizational and interchangeable electrical engagement between a test adapter and automated testing equipment.
