Patent number: 11647022Abstract: A method and a system for providing access by an application to data stored in a security data zone of a cloud platform are provided. The method includes determining, in response to a query received from a querying application of the cloud platform, credentials for a security data zone based on determining whether a first access token included in the received query belongs to an application registered at an access manager module of the cloud platform, and whether the user specified in the received query is allowed to use the registered application. The method also includes determining a second access token to the querying application generated based on the determined credentials. The querying application uses a returned second access token to obtain access to data stored in the security data zone to be processed by the querying application.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2019Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Maik Boche, Stefan Burger, Michael Ebert, Bernd Haberstumpf

Patent number: 10982896Abstract: Methods are disclosed for the pressure-based determining of a product parameter in a freeze dryer, in particular a product temperature. At a point in time tSTART, a closing element as an intermediate valve between an ice chamber and a drying chamber of the freeze dryer is closed. Then, during a pressure rise occurring due to the sublimation pressure values (P1, P2, . . . ) are measured in the drying chamber. At a point in time tEND then the closing element is opened. From the measured pressure values (P1, P2, . . . ) an approximation of a product parameter, in particular a product temperature TAPPROX, is determined. The point in time tEND is determined specifically for the measured pressure values (P1, P2, . . . ) such that the time span for which the closing element is closed depends on the determined pressure values and such that the time span is variable during a drying process.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2018Date of Patent: April 20, 2021Assignee: MARTIN CHRIST GEFRIERTROCKNUNGSANLAGEN GMBHInventors: Frank Harms, Michael Ebert, Sven Ostermeier

Patent number: 9915193Abstract: A method for operating an internal combustion engine (10) that has at least one cylinder row (11a, 11b) with first and second exhaust-gas turbochargers (13a, 13b; 14a, 14b). Charge air is provided by the first exhaust-gas turbocharger (13a, 13b) in single-charger operation, but is provided by the first and second exhaust-gas turbocharger (13a, 13b; 14a, 14b) in two-charger operation. To switch from single-charger to two-charger operation above a load threshold value of the internal combustion engine (10), when a speed of the internal combustion engine (10) reaches or overshoots a threshold value, a charge pressure is increased to build up a torque reserve and a charge pressure reserve and to maintain a driver demand torque. When the charge pressure reaches or overshoots a threshold value, a switch is made from single-charger operation to two-charger operation, and subsequently, the torque reserve and the charge pressure reserve are eliminated.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2015Date of Patent: March 13, 2018Assignee: DR.

Patent number: 8984245Abstract: A memory protection unit includes at least a first access control unit and a second access control unit programmed for controlling an access to a memory device. Further a method to operate a processing system comprising multiple processing devices and multiple memory protection units associated to the multiple processing devices. The access to the memory by a processing device is approved if first access control unit and second access control unit of the memory protection associated to the processing device approves the access and access is rejected if first access control unit or second access control unit rejects the access. The first access control unit is programmable by the associated processing device alone and the programming of the second access control unit is readable by an additional processing device which is to be used in a system with multiple programming devices, not the associate processing device.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2011Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Christine Rossa, Bernd Mueller, Markus Ferch, Carsten Gebauer, Dieter Thoss, Michael Ebert

Patent number: 8630719Abstract: This disclosure describes implantable medical leads that include a lead body and an electrode. A width of the electrode as measured along a longitudinal direction of the lead varies about the perimeter of the lead. The uneven width of the electrode may bias a stimulation field in a particular direction, e.g., a radial or transverse direction relative to the longitudinal axis of the lead. Electrodes with an uneven width may be useful for controlling the direction of propagation of the stimulation field in order to, for example, avoid phrenic nerve stimulation during LV pacing or neck muscle stimulation during vagal neurostimulation.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2012Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.Inventors: Michael D Eggen, John L Sommer, Michael Ebert, David W Bourn, Gabriela C Molnar
