Abstract: Embodiments regard secure virtual encryptor provisioning. A method can include deriving, by a key management system (KMS), virtual encryptor (VE) token data that associates a VE with a user token, signing, by the KMS, a VE executable file, verifying the signature, by a system root of trust (RoT) of a virtual encryptor system (VES), the VE, responsive to verifying signature, loading, by the VES, the executable file on a virtual machine (VM), receiving the user token data from the user device, and executing the VE responsive to determining an operation on a combination of the user token and the token data associated with the VE returns a specified value.

Abstract: An interactive visualization tool for displaying metrics associated with inventory related output from a replenishment simulation for an enterprise supply chain is described. Predicted values for metrics associated with simulation output may be received on a per item, per node, per epoch basis for a plurality of items associated with the supply chain at a plurality of nodes of the supply chain over a plurality of epochs. A visualization tool user interface may be rendered that includes item and node menus enabling user selection of varying granularity levels for viewing the metrics. The metrics may be aggregated according to a presently selected level of granularity, and represented within a single graphical view of the user interface to visualize projected inventory positions of items across nodes of the supply chain. The aggregated metrics may include an expected projection and a worst-case projection for one or more types of the metrics.

Abstract: Methods and systems for visualizing an inventory management and control. One method comprises receiving and aggregating inventory data from a plurality of nodes of a retail enterprise, scheduling a plurality of purchase orders for at least one item type based on the inventory data, generating inventory projections for the at least one item type based on the inventory data and the plurality of purchase orders, and rendering on a display, as part of a visualization tool user interface, a graphical view representing the inventory projections for the at least one item type, wherein the graphical view automatically updates based on inputs received for adjusting at least one purchase order of the plurality of purchase orders and inputs received for selecting at least one node or at least one group of nodes from the plurality of nodes.

Abstract: A remotely controlled backhoe is provided to permit operation of a backhoe and visual monitoring of a volatile or dangerous excavation site from a safe distance. The backhoe has an articulated rear boom arm and a rear bucket. Cameras are coupled to the backhoe proximate a left rear corner and a right rear corner of the cabin roof. A rear boom arm control is positioned on a remote control unit. The rear boom arm control is operationally coupled to the rear boom arm for maneuvering the rear boom arm. A rear bucket control is also positioned on the remote control unit and operationally coupled to the rear bucket for maneuvering the rear bucket. A monitor is coupled to the remote control unit and operationally coupled to the left rear camera and the right rear camera for displaying images from the left rear camera and the right rear camera.
