  • Patent number: 12425373
    Abstract: A system and method for securely exchanging information between a server and an endpoint. A firewall and switch may administer connections between the endpoint and the server. The network interface of the server may send and receive information through the firewall and switch. A program task in the sever may set the network interface to be in an “on state” for a predetermined amount of time on a specific date thereby creating an active time transfer window that the network interface can receive communications from the endpoint.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 12229073
    Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes: a plurality of cores to execute instructions; a firmware agent to execute a first firmware; a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interface to communicate with a device via a PCIe link; and a boot agent coupled to the PCIe interface to download the PCIe firmware from a non-volatile memory and provide the PCIe firmware to the PCIe interface. The PCIe interface may receive a PCIe firmware for the PCIe interface before the firmware agent is to receive the first firmware. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 12194693
    Abstract: A forming apparatus comprises a frame. The frame defines a vertical axis, a horizontal axis, and a longitudinal axis. A carriage is movably connected to the frame. A first stomp foot is movably connected to the carriage such that it may move along the vertical axis. A second stomp foot is movably connected to the carriage such that it may move along the vertical axis. A first swing arm is movably connected to the carriage and a second swing arm, movably connected to the carriage, is laterally opposed from the first swing arm relative to the longitudinal axis. A method includes applying at least one ply of composite material over a forming surface of a forming tool and deforming the at least one ply of composite material over the forming surface of the forming tool with the forming apparatus.
