Abstract: In some embodiments, a radio frequency identification (RFID) system may include at least one Ultra High Frequency (UHF) antenna component, a conductive loop having a largest dimension that is smaller than the wavelength of radiation transmitted at a Microwave Frequency (MW). The conductive loop may define a gap and an RFID chip may be electrically coupled to the conductive loop. The conductive loop may be configured to be resonant at an Ultra High Frequency (UHF) and less resonant at Microwave Frequency (MW). The antenna component may be selected from the group consisting of a dipole antenna, a monopole antenna, a loop antenna, or a slot antenna.

Abstract: Various embodiments are described herein for the fabrication enzyme degradable hydrogels useful as payload delivery systems. More particularly, embodiments disclosed herein relate to enzyme-degradable hydrogel systems comprising a crosslinkable polymer, such as a chemically-modified biopolymer, for example, chemically-modified gelatin, the hydrogel formed by a method comprising sequential physical and chemical crosslinking steps, for delivery of various payloads. Enzymes may be selected and administered to tune the release profile of the hydrogel. The payload can be, but not limited to, drugs, markers, cells, or these members encapsulated within another drug delivery such as a nanoparticle, or liposome. The hydrogel system can also be combined with another device such as a contact lens or bandage for wound healing.

Abstract: Techniques for efficient malicious content detection in plural versions of a software application are described. According to one embodiment, the computerized method includes installing a plurality of different versions of a software application concurrently within a virtual machine and selecting a subset of the plurality of versions of the software application that are concurrently installed within the virtual machine. Next, one or more software application versions of the subset of the plurality of versions of the software application are processed to access a potentially malicious content suspect within the virtual machine, without switching to another virtual machine. The behaviors of the potentially malicious content suspect during processing by the one or more software application versions are monitored to detect behaviors associated with a malicious attack.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically analyzing an object for malware is described. Operating one or more virtual machines, the system and method provide an analysis environment variation framework to provide a more robust analysis of an object for malware. The multi-application, multi-plugin processing framework is configured within a virtual machine, where the framework generates a plurality of processes for analyzing the object for malware and each of plurality of processes is configured with a different application and plug-in combination selected based in part on a type of object being analyzed.
