Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for autonomous orchestration of secrets renewal and distribution. A secrets management service (“SMS”) can be utilized to store, renew and distribute secrets in a distributed computing environment. The secrets are initially deployed, after which, SMS can automatically renew the secrets according to a specified rollover policy, and polling agents can fetch updates from SMS. In various embodiments, SMS can autonomously rollover client certificates for authentication of users who access a security critical service, autonomously rollover storage account keys, track delivery of updated secrets to secrets recipients, deliver secrets using a secure blob, and/or facilitate autonomous rollover using secrets staging. In some embodiments, a service is pinned to the path where the service's secrets are stored. In this manner, secrets can be automatically renewed without any manual orchestration and/or the need to redeploy services.

Abstract: A parameter affecting the absorptivity or the concentration of blood in tissue is measured using a semiconductor light source (7) and a light detector (8). The semiconductor light source (7) is operated at several operating conditions, at which it has different temperatures and therefore different emission spectra. In particular, the operating conditions correspond to different time intervals after switching the light source (7) on, while the light source (7) has not yet reached thermal equilibrium. This allows to perform a spectroscopic measurement using one light source only, which increases accuracy and reduces device cost.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention comprise systems and methods for noninvasion measurements of physiological properties of tissues. The system comprises a light emitter, an optical detector, a mechanical sensor and a processor. The light emitter is capable of emitting light of at least two different wavelengths and comprises at least one light source. The processor is capable of evaluating physiological properties of the tissues from measurements of the optical and the mechanical sensor. More precisely, the processor is capable of evaluating physiological properties of venous blood by using data measured by the mechanical sensor and the optical detector. For example, the oxygenation of venous blood can be measured. Furthermore, the systems can optionally comprise a light emitter which emits three wavelengths and/or the light emitter and the optical detector are arranged in reflection geometry and are located at a distance of at most 10 mm from each other.
