Abstract: A computer security system with enhanced whitelisting includes user interfaces that accept user inputs to create and modify a set of rules that define which programs are allowed to execute on one or more target systems. Upon an attempt to run a program, the set of rules are used to determine if the program is allowed to run. If any rule indicates that the program is allowed to run, the program is run. Otherwise, a user interface is presented to either block execution of the program or to create a new rule that would allow execution of the program this time and in the future.

Abstract: A ground traversing, electrically driven drone travels along a preprogrammed path that corresponds to pass catcher's travel path during a play, matching the pass catcher's speed and run cuts. The play is wirelessly communicated to the drone by a handheld electronic device located remote of the drone. A target is located on the drone so that a quarterback can throw a football at the target in order to refine the quarterback's timing and accuracy for the play. Sensors onboard the drone track both the football's and quarterback's speed and travel trajectories so that such data can be collected, along with the drone's travel path, and stored onboard the drone's control unit and eventually fed into 3-D reconstruction software for analysis by the quarterback and coaching staff. The target rotates so that the target either faces in a fixed direction or constantly faces the quarterback during execution of drone's maneuvers.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a single-end sequencing method for improved detection of genomic rearrangements such as deletions, insertions, inversions, and translocations that are present in a polynucleotide. A first priming event allows for sequencing of a target sequence, and a second priming event on an adapter allows for identification of the sequences amplified and tagged by selective amplification. The combination of priming events in the same direction facilitates read alignment and the identification of any genomic rearrangements.

Abstract: A multi-stage thulium-doped (Tm-doped) fiber amplifiers (TDFA) is based on the use of single-clad Tm-doped optical fiber and includes a wavelength conditioning element to compensate for the nonuniform spectral response of the initial stage(s) prior to providing power boosting in the output stage. The wavelength conditioning element, which may comprise a gain shaping filter, exhibits a wavelength-dependent response that flattens the gain profile and output power distribution of the amplified signal prior to reaching the output stage of the multi-stage TDFA. The inclusion of the wavelength conditioning element allows the operating bandwidth of the amplifier to be extended so as to encompass a large portion of the eye-safe 2 ?m wavelength region.
