Abstract: One variation of a method for producing a target compound includes: during an initial period, genetically modifying a population of insects to produce a target compound; during a growth period succeeding the initial period, cultivating the population of insects; during a treatment period succeeding the growth period, applying a dosage of a stressor to the population of insects, the stressor configured to trigger production of the target compound; in response to a proportion of the target compound within the population of insects exceeding a threshold proportion, harvesting the population of insects; homogenizing the population of insects to form a blend comprising the proportion of the target compound and a second proportion of a set of secondary components; and separating the proportion of the target compound from the second proportion of the set of secondary components for extraction of the proportion of the target compound from the blend.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer readable medium for performing a generalized angle-based tracker for a target determines angle-based information from a target signal, and initializes a Stationary Surface Filter (SSF), a Moving Surface Filter (MSF), and a Pseudorange Kalman Filter (PKF) with the angle-based information. Next, the SSF and MSF are scored by the PKF. If the information is associated, then the SSF, MSF, and PKF are updated. It is determined if at least one plausible Constituent Kalman Filter (CKF) exists for the SSF and MSF. If at least one CKF exists for the SSF and no CKF exists for the MSF, then the target is stationary surface; if at least one CKF exists for the MSF and no CKF exists for the SSF, then the target is moving surface; if no CKF exists for both the SSF and the MSF, then the target is moving airborne.

Abstract: Methods and systems are also described for an integrated cyber incident management system that may store native data corresponding to fields of cyber incident management system (or other non-integrated systems) and integration data (e.g., viewable through a user interface of the integrated cyber incident management system), which describes a relationship of the native data to the integrated cyber incident management system, at a structure node in the architecture of the integrated cyber incident management system. The structure node may correspond to the convergence of two structures in the architecture of the integrated cyber incident management system. Each structure may itself correspond to a native hierarchal relationship in a non-integrated cyber incident management system.

Abstract: A segment identifier (SID) manager interfaces with clients by way of a library. Clients implementing network services and needing SIDs according to internet SRv6, are allocated blocks by the SID manager using the library. Clients assign SIDs from the block independent of the SID manager using the library. Where a threshold portion of the block is assigned, the library requests an additional block of SIDs from the SID manager. Clients transmit context mappings of assigned SIDs to the SID manager for use by administrators and to enable recovery in the event of failure.

For example, automation systems and methods can be used to efficiently optimize the storage density of items in warehouses. In some examples, warehouse workers are automatically provided with instructions for how to assemble pallet loads of incoming items to a height that is determined based on the goal of fully utilizing open warehouse storage rack spaces. In some examples, a plan for optimizing the build-height of pallet loads of an incoming shipment is determined in advance of receiving the shipment.
