  • Publication number: 20250071166
    Abstract: Establishing communication between first and second digital twins, a first REST-based API assigned to the first digital twin and a second REST-based API assigned to the second digital twin includes transmitting a request to an endpoint of the first API and receiving a response therefrom, and transmitting a request to an endpoint of the second API and receiving a response therefrom. The responses are compared and analyzed. A mapping model is created on the basis of the comparing and analyzing, the mapping model containing semantic and technical requirements of the first API and of the second API. The mapping model is used for mutual communication between the first digital twin and the second digital twin, the mapping model translating a data transfer from one of the two digital twins in a manner conforming to the technical and semantic requirements of the API of the other of the two digital twins.

    Abstract: Systems and methods providing a processing device to receive, by a software build process executing in a trusted execution environment (TEE) of a first computer system, software source code from a second computer system. The processing device generates a software package by compiling the software source code. The processing device also receives, from the second computer system, a signing key associated with the second computer system. The processing device further signs the software package using the signing key associated with the second computer system. The processing device then deploys the signed software package on the first computer system.

  • Publication number: 20250053924
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for gathering electronic signatures to be applied to collaboration system content objects (e.g., contracts, letters, insurance claims, riders, etc.). A collaboration system monitors changes made to the collaboration system content objects during electronic signature processing. A module of the content management system is configured to associate one or more instances of e-signing metadata to one or more of the stored content objects of the content management system. The e-signing metadata indicates whether or not a particular portion of the one or more of the stored content objects has been e-signed by a designated e-signatory. A collaborator who is not one of the designated e-signatories makes a change to one or more of the stored content objects (e.g., contracts, letters, insurance claims, riders, etc.). The change is remediated on-the-fly and the e-signing process continues without having to restart the e-signing process from the beginning.

  • Publication number: 20250054138
    Abstract: All X-ray computerized tomography systems that are available or proposed base their reconstructions on measurements that integrate over energy. X-ray tubes produce a broad spectrum of photon energies and a great deal of information can be derived by measuring changes in the transmitted spectrum. We show that for any material, complete energy spectral information may be summarized by a few constants which are independent of energy. A technique is presented which uses simple, low-resolution, energy spectrum measurements and conventional computerized tomography techniques to calculate these constants at every point within a cross-section of an object. For comparable accuracy, patient dose is shown to be approximately the same as that produced by conventional systems. Possible uses of energy spectral information for diagnosis are presented.

  • Publication number: 20250023845
    Abstract: A unified network service that connects multiple disparate private networks and end user client devices operating on separate networks is described. The multiple disparate private networks and end user client devices connect to a distributed cloud computing network that provides routing services, security services, and performance services, and that can be controlled consistently regardless of the connection type. The unified network service provides uniform access control at the L3 layer (e.g., at the IP layer) or at a higher layer using user identity information (e.g., a zero-trust model). The disparate private networks are run on top of the distributed cloud computing network. The virtual routing layer of the distributed cloud computing network allows customers of the service to have private resources visible only to client devices (e.g.

  • Patent number: 12168484
    Abstract: A railborne driver assistance device for supporting or automating the lateral control of a vehicle includes a first processing unit configured to control a steering torque intervention by establishing a steering angle with a stationary control accuracy of an electrically supported steering system. A second processing unit is configured to adjust the stationary control accuracy of the steering angle via the output of an accuracy request signal to the first processing unit in such a way that there is a scaling of the control accuracy between a lower and an upper threshold value. The second processing unit includes a control unit having an integrator with an input and an output, wherein the output of the integrator is connected to the input in a closed-loop manner with a weighting dependent on the accuracy request signal.

  • Patent number: 12084967
    Abstract: A method for downlinking communication from a surface location to a bottom hole assembly during drilling operation is provided. The method includes pumping drilling fluid through a fluid line and through a drill string to the bottom hole assembly, and generating pressure wave signals by a modulator disposed against an outside surface of the fluid line at an outside-surface location of the fluid line. The modulator is disposed entirely outside of the fluid line. The method includes detecting and receiving at the bottom hole assembly the pressure wave signals generated by the modulator, and processing and decoding the pressure wave signals with a decoder associated with the bottom hole assembly to identify downlinking command purpose and required action for controlling drilling operations.
