Abstract: A distributed system of scanning nodes is provided job portions to collectively scan network systems numbering in the tens of thousands and beyond million across the Internet. A scanning controller creates the job portions to fulfill a scanning request. The scanning controller creates the job portions based on availability of scanning nodes and a size of the scanning request (i.e., number of network addresses indicated by the request). The scanning controller creates each job portion with scanning instructions for an available scanning node to execute on a selected set of the network addresses indicated in the request, with each job portion having a different set of addresses to scan and being independently executable.

Abstract: A method can include receiving time series data acquired during equipment operations at a plurality of natural resource sites; detecting operational events using the time series data; ranking the operational events; associating each of the operational events with a corresponding operational action; and outputting at least a portion of the ranked operational events, each with its corresponding operational action.

Abstract: A method including obtaining a unique identifier for a user. The method also can include causing an authentication code to be sent to a device of the user. The method additionally can include receiving, through a first user interface displayed to the user, the authentication code. The method further can include displaying, to the user through the first user interface, a list of cards in a shared wallet for the user. The cards can be issued from multiple different issuers. The shared wallet can be accessible to multiple different merchants. The method additionally can include receiving, through the first user interface displayed to the user, a selection from the user of a selected card from the list of the cards for processing a transaction. The method further can include providing card information for the selected card to a merchant for processing the transaction. Other embodiments of related systems and methods are described.

Abstract: A golf club head includes a golf club body including a crown, a sole, and a skirt connected between the crown and the sole, the golf club body including a front including a leading edge and a back including a trailing edge, and a hosel connected to the golf club body; a face connected to the front of the golf club body, the face including a geometric center, the golf club head including modifiable boundary conditions.

Abstract: Improved duct modeling using an improved duct definition interface includes receiving, from an automated duct definition interface, a plurality of duct definition parameters associated with a duct; in response to the receiving, building a duct definition database based at least on the plurality of duct definition parameters, the duct definition database further comprising a plurality of operational parameters associated with the duct; generating a duct model associated with the duct based at least on the duct definition database; and communicating the duct model to a duct modeling application for rendering.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments generally relate to transaction card constructions, and particularly, to a two-piece transaction card construction. Disclosed embodiments include a generally planar first card component including a first surface and a generally planar second card component including a second surface wherein the first card component is separate from the second card component. In disclosed embodiments, for example, the generally planar first card component and the generally planar second card component may be configured such that one forms a cavity and the other forms an inlay component configured to be seated within the cavity. In other embodiments the generally planar first card component and the generally planar second card component may be configured such that one forms a container and the other forms a lid configured to close the container.

Abstract: In described examples, a processor system includes a processor core that generates memory write requests, and a cache memory with a memory controller having a memory pipeline. The cache memory has cache lines of length L. The cache memory has a minimum write length that is less than a cache line length of the cache memory. The memory pipeline determines whether the data payload includes a first chunk and ECC syndrome that correspond to a partial write and are writable by a first cache write operation, and a second chunk and ECC syndrome that correspond to a full write operation that can be performed separately from the first cache write operation. The memory pipeline performs an RMW operation to store the first chunk and ECC syndrome in the cache memory, and performs the full write operation to store the second chunk and ECC syndrome in the cache memory.
