Abstract: A method of dehydrating and rehydrating mycelium includes growing fungal cells in a growth media such that the fungal cells produce a mycelium mass having a protein content of greater than 40 wt % of a dry mass of the mycelium mass. The method includes separating the mycelium mass from the growth media, compacting the mycelium mass, and dehydrating the compacted mycelium mass to produce a dehydrated mycelium mass having a moisture content in a range of 5 wt % to 60 wt % and a first hardness in a range of 0.007 kgf/mm2 to 0.018 kgf/mm2. The method includes rehydrating the dehydrated mycelium mass to form a rehydrated mycelium mass having a moisture content of greater than 60 wt % and a second hardness in a range of 0.00035 kgf/mm2 to 0.007 kgf/mm2.

Abstract: A method of forming an edible meat substitute product includes growing fungal cells in a growth media such that the fungal cells produce a mycelium mass having a protein content of greater than 40 wt % of a dry mass of the mycelium mass. The method includes separating the mycelium mass from the growth media. The method includes disposing the mycelium mass on a base of a mold. The method includes applying a uniaxial pressure to the mycelium mass via a follower to produce a compacted mycelium mass having a moisture content in a range of 65 vol % to 85 vol % and having a shape corresponding to a shape of the mold. A plurality of fibers of the compacted mycelium mass are aligned in a direction orthogonal to the direction of the applied uniaxial pressure.

Abstract: The various technologies presented herein relate to determining a network attack is taking place, and further to adjust one or more network parameters such that the network becomes dynamically configured. A plurality of machine learning algorithms are configured to recognize an active attack pattern. Notification of the attack can be generated, and knowledge gained from the detected attack pattern can be utilized to improve the knowledge of the algorithms to detect a subsequent attack vector(s). Further, network settings and application communications can be dynamically randomized, wherein artificial diversity converts control systems into moving targets that help mitigate the early reconnaissance stages of an attack. An attack(s) based upon a known static address(es) of a critical infrastructure network device(s) can be mitigated by the dynamic randomization.
