Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for a network device to preserve packet flow information across bump-in-the-wire (BITW) firewalls. For example, a method comprises receiving, by a network device, a packet. The method also comprises determining, by the network device, that the packet matches a packet flow that is associated with an action to redirect the packet to a firewall configured as a bump-in-the-wire. The method further comprises, in response to the determination: modifying, by the network device, a Media Access Control (MAC) address field of a layer 2 (L2) packet header with a flow identifier of the packet flow; sending, by the network device, the packet to the firewall; receiving, by the network device, the packet from the firewall; and recovering, by the network device, the packet flow by modifying the packet according to the flow identifier in the packet to restore the L2 packet header of the packet.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, methods and systems may be associated with a cloud computing environment having an integration service (e.g., associated with a Software-as-a-Service or a Platform-as-a-Service). The system may include a build automation tool and a build-independent software framework coupled to the build automation tool. The build-independent software framework may access, via an implementation registry, information from the build automation tool that represents a custom adapter for the integration service. The build-independent software framework may then automatically create the custom adapter via a build Application Programming Interface (“API”) and automatically validate the created custom adapter via a validation API. The system can then arrange to deploy a concrete implementation of the custom adapter in the cloud computing environment.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, methods and systems may be associated with a cloud computing environment having an integration service (e.g., associated with a Software-as-a-Service or a Platform-as-a-Service). A design micro service may have a User Interface (“UI”) framework and UI components in a domain specific language for an integration developer. A custom flow step development kit may receive, from the integration developer via a browser-based graphical UI, information to build logic for a custom flow step associated with a microservice-based integration service. In some embodiments, a new integration component is embedded into an existing set of components for a tenant, and the new custom flow step is deployed in, and re-usable by, other integration services (e.g., via a marketplace).

Abstract: A bi-directional DC-DC converter and an on-board charger with the bi-directional DC-DC converter integrated into it are disclosed for converting a first voltage to a second voltage. The bi-directional DC-DC converter includes a transformer for magnetically coupling a primary circuit receiving the first voltage on a primary side with a rectification circuit on a secondary side. Further, a high voltage power source is connected to the rectification circuit for supplying a high voltage to one or more high voltage loads and a low voltage power source is connected to the high voltage power source through a secondary circuit for supplying a second voltage to one or more low voltage loads. The bi-directional DC-DC converter functions in both stationary condition and running condition of a powered device.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes a method for vaporizing a product of a plurality of different products including receiving, by a processor of a vaporizing device, a desired dosage amount that is indicative of an amount of a compound to release during one or more inhalation events. The method includes determining, by the processor, an occurrence of a current inhalation event and during the current inhalation event determining, by the processor, an inhalation pressure being applied to a container that contains the product; determining, by the processor, a predicted dosage that is indicative of a predicted amount of the compound that has been released in the vapor during the current inhalation event based on the inhalation pressure; and selectively adjusting, by the processor, a vaporizing temperature being applied to the product by the vaporizer based on the desired dosage and the predicted dosage.

Abstract: A product, system, and method for creating a film capable of allowing a user to create a custom graphical representation is described, which may allow a user to create a custom graphical representation in a film by depressing select areas of the film to form the custom graphical representation.

Abstract: Methods and system are disclosed that generate adapters via a framework. In one aspect, dependencies between components may be defined via a drag-and-drop action on a user interface provided via an adapter configuration user interface component. Adapter configuration files may be generated by an adapter configuration component, such that the adapter configuration files may include information associated with the dependencies. At runtime, a dependency analyzer component may resolve the dependencies based on definitions associated with the dependencies. In an embodiment, upon resolving the dependencies, adapters may be generated at the framework.

Abstract: A network, a Visible Light Communications controller (120), and a method relate to a network architecture splitting frame processing functionality between Light Fidelity Access Points (130) and the Visible Light Communications controller or a virtualized controller. In such configurations, the Light Fidelity Access Points are so-called thin devices that may be widely deployed through an infrastructure to concurrently provide illumination and network access via Visible Light Communications protocols such as IEEE 802.15.7 or variants thereof.

Abstract: The present invention describes a two-sided radiation exposure method including a step of applying a coating or ink composition on a surface of a nonporous substrate. The applied coating or ink composition surface of the nonporous substrate is exposed to radiation one or more times. In addition, a non-applied surface of the nonporous substrate is exposed to radiation one or more times. The two-sided radiation exposure method improves adhesion and/or curing properties of the coating or ink composition applied on the nonporous substrate. The present invention also describes a radiation exposed, nonporous substrate with a coating or ink composition applied on a surface thereof produced by the steps of the above-mentioned method.
