  • Publication number: 20210152604
    Abstract: Among other things, this document describes systems, methods and devices for discovering and identifying client devices that attempt to access out-of-policy network services via a secure web gateway (or other network security gateway) that lacks visibility into the client network actual IP space. This is a common problem with cloud hosted SWG services that enforce access policy from outside of a customer network (e.g., external to an enterprise network), due to network address translation at the interface between the customer network and the public Internet where the cloud-hosted SWG resides. The teachings hereof address this problem. In one embodiment, a cloud hosted SWG can redirect a client to a bouncer device inside the customer network; that bouncer device can capture the actual client IP address.

  • Publication number: 20210140406
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for controlling a wind. Accordingly, a current condition of a generator of the wind turbine is determined, and an approach of the current condition to a current-dependent limit is detected. The speed of the generator is affected so as to alter a rotor/stator balance of the generator such that the current-dependent limit is not exceeded and the wind turbine can operate at a rated power.

  • Publication number: 20210128313
    Abstract: A sinus tarsi implant for the purpose of stabilizing and restoring motion between the talus and calcaneus while allowing normal motion and alignment. In a preferred embodiment, the implant is composed of a titanium alloy that is a combination of a cylindrical portion and an axially connected conical portion. The cylindrical portion has a surface with multiple parallel grooves that are each parallel to the transverse axis of the cylinder. The grooves are uniquely shaped with a perpendicular medial side and an angled lateral side. The implant is cannulated to enable use of a guide wire that insures proper alignment during insertion.

  • Publication number: 20210026963
    Abstract: Client devices detect malware based on a ruleset received from a security server. To evaluate a current ruleset, an administrative client device initiates a ruleset evaluation of the malware detection ruleset. A security server partitions stored malware samples into a group of evaluation lists based on an evaluation policy. The security server then creates scanning nodes on an evaluation server according to the evaluation policy. The scanning nodes scan the malware samples of the evaluation lists using the rulesets and associate each malware sample with a rule of the ruleset based on the detections, if any. The security server analyzes the associations and optimizes the ruleset and stored malware samples. The security server sends the optimized ruleset to client devices such that they more efficiently detect malware samples.

  • Patent number: 10884895
    Abstract: In capturing software element state changes during software application runtime, a computing device executes a software application that a set of software sensors integrated within executable code of the software application. The software sensors correspond to software elements in the software application. During runtime, a given software sensor corresponding to a given software element continuously determines whether the given software element changes state. In response to a change in state, the given software sensor captures and stores the current state of the given software element. An application control module associated with the software application obtains state data stored by the software sensors. The application control module determines commands for modifying a behavior of the software application based on an analysis of the state data and executes the commands.

  • Patent number: 10832481
    Abstract: Techniques for providing multi-screen interaction in an interactive application. A primary device establishes an application session. The application session includes a virtual environment relating to a physical environment in which the primary user device is located. The primary user device is configured to display a graphical image relating to a primary virtual camera view of the virtual environment. A secondary virtual camera view of the virtual environment, relating to the primary virtual camera view, is determined. The primary user device transmits image data relating to the secondary virtual camera view from the primary user device to a secondary user device, which is configured to display a graphical image based on the image data. Responsive to receiving an interaction request from the secondary user device, the primary user device controls the application session based on the interaction request.

  • Patent number: 10815777
    Abstract: A method for detecting incremental oil production from an oil-bearing reservoir includes taking a baseline sample of the oil and analyzing the baseline sample of oil to establish a baseline compositional signature for the oxygen-containing organic compounds in the oil. In addition, the method includes commencing a low salinity waterflood by injecting a low salinity water into the reservoir from an injection well. Further, the method includes recovering oil from a production well. Still further, the method includes taking post-flood samples of the oil produced from the production well over time. The method also includes analyzing the post-flood samples of oil to establish post-flood compositional signatures for the oxygen-containing organic compounds in the oil. Moreover, the method includes identifying a difference between one or more of the post-flood compositional signatures and the baseline compositional signature that is characteristic of incremental oil released by the low salinity waterflood.

  • Publication number: 20200331524
    Abstract: A dynamic vibration absorber for reducing steering wheel vibration. The vibration absorber includes a resilient member that includes a resilient member inner surface that defines a center cavity that is configured to receive a steering column of a vehicle that generates vibration that is transferred to a steering wheel via the steering column, the center cavity being substantially coaxial with the steering column when attached thereto. The resilient member includes at least one resilient member outer surface that defines a resilient member outer diameter. The vibration absorber includes a rigid body that engages and is supported by the resilient member and that includes six degrees of freedom of movement relative to the steering column, the rigid body including a rigid body inner surface that defines a rigid body center cavity.

  • Patent number: 10810747
    Abstract: Techniques for predicting a virtual camera view in an augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR) application. A first change in position of a user device over a first time period is determined based on analyzing a plurality of frames of image data related to an AR or VR application. A dead reckoning calculation is used to predict a second change in position of the user device over a second time period, based on the first change in position and data received from an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) associated with the user device. A plurality of frames of image data are generated for display in the AR or VR application, based on the predicted second change in position of the user device.

  • Patent number: 10775191
    Abstract: A request for geographic content is received from a client device. The request includes (i) an indication that a user invoked the digital mapping service in a vehicle and (ii) an identifier of the user. In response to the request, profile data for the user including indications of previous interactions of the user with a digital mapping service is automatically retrieved. Geographic content is generated based on the indications of previous interactions in view of relevance of the previous interactions to an automotive context. The geographic content is provided to the client device for presentation in the vehicle.
