  • Patent number: 11367157
    Abstract: An automated method of moving aircraft parts between facilities includes determining a dispatch reliability rate associated with a group of aircraft parts. The dispatch reliability rate indicates a percentage of incoming flights meeting departure demands at a first facility, and the departure demands are based on the group of aircraft parts. The automated method also includes comparing the dispatch reliability rate to a dispatch reliability rate threshold associated with the group of aircraft parts to generate comparison data. The automated method further includes determining to adjust a stock level of at least one aircraft part of the group of aircraft parts at the first facility based on the comparison data. The automated method further includes moving a quantity of the at least one aircraft part between the first facility and a second facility to adjust the stock level of the at least one aircraft part at the first facility.

  • Patent number: 11210452
    Abstract: Markup language documents including server side scripting code using PHP syntax are executed efficiently in response to requests received by a server. The processing of the markup language document results in generation of a transformed markup language document that is returned in response to the request. The server side script code is input to a compiler that generates C++ code (or code in any object-based language based on C language) implementing the functionality of the server side script code. The C++ code is compiled to generated object code which is executed in order to process the markup language document. The generated C++ code includes functionality supported by PHP language including redeclaration of functions, dynamic variables, global variables, and the like. The generated C++ code invokes memory allocation code that allocates and deallocates objects obtained by instantiating the generated C++ classes.

  • Patent number: 10972264
    Abstract: A method is provided that protects electronic Identity information based on key derived operation. The method includes using an electronic Identity server to send an application derived identifier of the application and user electronic Identity code to a host security module that randomly generates an application master key, encrypts the application derived identifier with the application master key, and gets an application encryption key. The host security module encrypts the user electronic Identity code with the application encryption key, and gets an encryption document. The electronic Identity server codes the encryption document and an application identity code, and gets an application electronic Identity code. The electronic Identity server uses the application electronic Identity code as the user identifier.
