Publication number: 20240068943Abstract: Instrument control and data acquisition in advanced analytic systems that utilize optical pulses for sample analysis are described. Clocking signals for data acquisition, data processing, communication, and/or other data handling functionalities can be derived from an on-board pulsed optical source, such as a passively mode-locked laser. The derived clocking signals can operate in combination with one or more clocking signals from a stable oscillator, so that instrument operation and data handling can tolerate interruptions in operation of the pulsed optical source.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: Quantum-Si IncorporatedInventors: Jonathan M.

Patent number: 9813234Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for secure multiparty computation. A set of first parties is selected from a plurality of first parties for computation. Inputs for computation associated with each party in the set of first parties are divided into shares to be sent to other parties in the set of first parties. The computation on the shares is performed by the set of first parties using multiparty computation functions. In response to a trigger event, shares of the set of first parties are transferred to a set of second parties selected from a plurality of second parties. The computation is completed by the set of second parties using the transferred shares. Finally, the transferred shares are recombined to reveal an output of the computation.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2015Date of Patent: November 7, 2017Assignee: The United States of America, as represented by the Secretery of the Air ForceInventors: Michael R Clark, Kenneth M Hopkinson

Patent number: 8635186Abstract: Providing synchronization to a local system. Embodiments may include downloading a batch of changes in a heterogeneous batch. The batch of changes is correlated to an anchor affiliated with a synchronization service. The anchor is a reference point indicating time or relative order. The batch of changes and the anchor are serialized to a non-volatile storage medium as a heterogeneous set. After serializing the batch of changes to a non-volatile storage medium as a heterogeneous set, entities in the batch of changes are parsed out into entities in in-memory representations. Similarly, embodiments may receive user input modifying a plurality of data entities, store on a non-volatile storage medium a serialized heterogeneous representation of the modified data entities, and upload the serialized heterogeneous representation to a synchronization service.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2013Date of Patent: January 21, 2014Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Aaron K.

Patent number: 8185494Abstract: Synchronization is bound to data and optionally a set of synchronization behaviors as opposed to a particular application and/or endpoint. As a result, synchronization amongst endpoints need not require creation of customized synchronization solutions or rely on vendor and/or application specific mechanisms. In one instance, standard data and/or synch schemas can be subscribed to and utilized to dynamically configure synchronization across endpoints.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2007Date of Patent: May 22, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Darren R.
