Abstract: A lifting system for generating a lifting force on a portion of a vehicle includes a vehicle wheel and a force-generating mechanism structured to be received inside a rim cavity of the wheel. The force-generating mechanism is also structured to be operably connected to a frame of a vehicle. A bearing member is operably connected to the force-generating mechanism. The bearing member is structured to transmit a force generated by the force-generating mechanism to a surface in physical contact with the bearing member. The bearing member is also structured for operably connecting the wheel to the force-generating mechanism. Force applied by the force-generating mechanism may be sufficient to lift a portion of the vehicle off of a ground surface, or the force may only be sufficient to apply a parking brake force without lifting the vehicle.

Abstract: A leasing AI platform receives a message pertaining to leasing a real estate unit, generates a token matrix representing at least a portion of the message, and provide the token matrix as an input to a trained machine learning model. An output of the trained machine learning model comprises an indication of a first category associated with the at least the portion of the message. The leasing AI platform identifies one or more actions associated with the first category, the actions pertaining to leasing the real estate unit, and automatically executes the one or more actions without human involvement in response to receiving the message.

Abstract: Method in a wireless device for managing handover from a source cell to a target cell. When a first difference of a first quality measurement of a signal from the target cell minus a first quality measurement of a signal from the source cell is above a first threshold for a first time period, the wireless device sends a report to the source network node and receives a message to handover to the target cell. When a second difference of a second quality measurement of a signal from the target cell minus a second quality measurement of a signal from the source cell is above a second threshold value, for a second time period, the wireless device triggers handover to the target cell. When it is not above the second threshold value, for the second time period, it cancels the handover.

Abstract: A method in an example embodiment includes correlating a first set of event data from a private network and determining a local reputation score of a host in the private network based on correlating the first set of event data. The method further includes providing the local reputation score of the host to a security node, which applies a policy, based on the local reputation score of the host, to a network communication associated with the host. In specific embodiments, the local reputation score of the host is mapped to a network address of the host. In further embodiments, the first set of event data includes one or more event indicators representing one or more events, respectively, in the private network. In more specific embodiments, the method includes determining a local reputation score of a user and providing the local reputation score of the user to the security node.

Abstract: A method is described in example embodiments below that include receiving a content tag associated with transferring a file over a network connection. A session descriptor may also be received. The session descriptor and the content tag may be correlated with a network policy, which may be applied to the network connection. In some embodiments, the content tag may be received with the session descriptor. The file may be tainted by another file in some embodiments, and the content tag may be associated with other file.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for forming narrow thermal silicon dioxide side isolation regions in a semiconductor substrate and MOS or CMOS semiconductor devices fabricated by this method. A thin stress relief layer is used in conjunction with a polysilicon buffering stress relief layer on the surface of a semiconductor substrate prior to the field oxidation process to restrict lateral silicon dioxide expansion thereby permitting the creation of narrow thermal silicon dioxide side isolation regions in the semiconductor substrate. A silicon dioxide layer is also used between an amorphous polysilicon (buffering stress relief) layer and a silicon nitride layer to function as an oxide cap, to avoid undesired pitting of the amorphous polysilicon layer, and to avoid interaction between the silicon nitride and amorphous polysilicon layers in areas of high stress.

Abstract: The substantial structure of this invention consists of an intensive mechanical swing device and a group of electronic circuits situated in a small-size box body. The swing device features a highly balanceable and sophisticated pendulum designed to absorb the natural swing energy of a human body during running. While the pendulum is swinging, a microswitch will turn on or off to transmit every signal to an IC where precise number of running steps is calculated. In the surface of the box body, a hanging ear is equipped so that the device can be hung on the waist. On the face of the box body is a display and four control keys are equipped to control and lay out all the designed functions of this invention.
