Abstract: An example apparatus includes means for extracting characters from first cookies stored in a first memory space, the first cookies collected from client devices via network communications, and means for storing in a second memory space, a pattern of characters in association with a first demographic to indicate that the pattern of characters and the first demographic are both representative of a same first unique audience member, the storing being in response to determining that at least two of the first cookies (1) include the pattern of characters, and (2) correspond to the first demographic.

Abstract: A container corresponding to executable code may be received. The container may be executed in a secure computation environment by performing one or more operations specified by the executable code of the container. An instruction to terminate the executing of the container may be received from a high level operating system (HLOS) that is external to the secure computation environment. A determination may be made as to whether the container is associated with a preemption privilege and the executing of the container may be terminated after receiving the instruction from the HLOS based on the determination of whether the container is associated with the preemption privilege.

Abstract: This invention relates to pharmaceutical composition and methods of using vitamin A and/or RAR? agonist for the treatment or prevention of diseases or conditions associated with high fat diet and/or vitamin deficiency.

Abstract: A host Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) operates “blindly,” without the host VMM having the ability to access data within a guest virtual machine (VM) or the ability to access directly control structures that control execution flow of the guest VM. Guest VMs execute within a protected region of memory (called a key domain) that even the host VMM cannot access. Virtualization data structures that pertain to the execution state (e.g., a Virtual Machine Control Structure (VMCS)) and memory mappings (e.g., Extended Page Tables (EPTs)) of the guest VM are also located in the protected memory region and are also encrypted with the key domain key. The host VMM and other guest VMs, which do not possess the key domain key for other key domains, cannot directly modify these control structures nor access the protected memory region. The host VMM, however, using VMPageIn and VMPageOut instructions, can build virtual machines in key domains and page VM pages in and out of key domains.

Abstract: An example apparatus includes at least one processor and first memory comprising computer readable instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to log an impression in second memory at an audience measurement entity based on a communication received from a computing device. The example computer readable instructions, when executed, cause the at least one processor to determine that a primary user of the computing device is not the user operating the computing device when a first probability score for the primary user does not satisfy a threshold, and in response to determining that the primary user is not the user operating the computing device, identify one of a plurality of secondary users as the user operating the computing device. The example computer readable instructions, when executed, cause the at least one processor to store demographic information of the user operating the computing device.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to compensate impression data for misattribution and non-coverage by a database proprietor are disclosed. An example method includes obtaining a count of media impressions occurring on a first type of computing device, a first portion of the media impressions corresponding to persons for whom demographic information is recognizable by a database proprietor and a second portion of the media impressions corresponding to persons for whom demographic information is unavailable to the database proprietor; and determining the demographic information for the second portion of the media impressions based on a first probability that media corresponding to the media impressions is accessed on the first type of computing device and based on a second probability that media is accessed on a second type of device.

Abstract: A method, system, and program product for remotely attesting to a state of computing system is provided. Specifically, the present invention allows a remote system to establish trust in the properties of the computer system. The properties to be trusted are expanded from the usual system software layers and related configuration files to novel types of data such as static data specific to the computer system, dynamic data determined at system startup, or dynamic data created as the computer system runs applications.

Such conditions include, but are not limited to, diseases in pancreas, liver, kidney, testes, muscle, or adipose tissue, as well as other organs that are associated with high fat diet and/or vitamin A deficiency, as well as other conditions associated with abnormal level of triglyceride, cholesterol and/or glucose.

Abstract: A secret key value that is inaccessible to software is scrambled according to registers consisting of one-time programmable (OTP) bits. A first OTP register is used to change the scrambling of the secret key value whenever a lifecycle event occurs. A second OTP register is used to undo the change in the scrambling of the secret key. A third OTP register is used to affect a permanent change to the scrambling of the secret key. The scrambled values of the secret key (whether changed or unchanged) are used as seeds to produce keys for cryptographic operations by a device.
