  • Patent number: 12163101
    Abstract: This disclosure describes a method for retrofitting an existing plant. The method includes adding a fractionation process to separate bran from other components in a feedstock to the existing plant, adding a pretreatment process downstream of the fractionation process, the pretreatment process configured to receive the bran and utilize water and heat to break down cellulose and hemicellulose in the bran; adding a hydrolysis and cellulosic fermentation process downstream of the pretreatment process and upstream of the fermentation process to hydrolyze the bran with a cellulase enzyme complex cocktail and to ferment with an organism to produce cellulosic beer; and combining the cellulosic beer with starch from the grain in the existing plant into the fermentation process to increase overall yield per feedstock unit in the existing plant.

  • Patent number: 12153503
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for metadata management for enabling automated switchover. An initial quorum vote may be performed before a node executes an operation associated with metadata comprising operational information and switchover information. After the initial quorum vote is performed, the node executes the operation upon one or more mailbox storage devices. Once the operation has executed, a final quorum vote is performed. The final quorum vote and the initial quorum vote are compared to determine whether the operation is to be designated as successful or failed, and whether any additional actions are to be performed.

  • Publication number: 20240312631
    Abstract: Techniques and systems include assessing health risk and predicting health events of a patient using measured biosignals. The biosignals may be transformed into a photoplethysmography (PPG) signal or pseudo PPG signal, for example, to measure blood volume changes in the patient's blood flow to derive data indicating a disease state or health-related characteristic, such as blood oxygen level, blood glucose level, heart rate variability, hemoglobin, respiration rate, or arrhythmia. Further, the biosignals can include vocal signals, health labels, and self-reported data related to a patient's health. Assessment and prediction techniques include training an artificial intelligence (AI) model to create embedding vectors based on the measured biosignal(s) that are then ingested by a prediction model to assess and/or predict a patient's health risk and/or health events.

  • Patent number: 12093163
    Abstract: A system performs static program analysis with artifact reuse. The system identifies artifacts associated with the software program being analyzed. The system processes the identified artifacts for performing static program analysis and transmits either the artifacts or identifiers for the artifacts to a second processing device for performing program analysis. The second processing device receives the artifacts and uses the received identifiers to retrieve the artifacts from a networked storage system. The second device also retrieves stored summaries of previous program analysis from the networked storage system. The program analysis uses the retrieved artifacts to generate work units for static program analysis. The analysis is performed only for those work units that are determined to remain unchanged from previous static program analysis cycles.

  • Patent number: 12032459
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for metadata management for enabling automated switchover in accordance with a configuration of storage solution that expresses a preference for either maintaining availability (e.g., a non-zero RPO mode) of the storage solution or avoiding data loss (e.g., a zero RPO mode). In one example, responsive to detecting a switchover trigger event, a node of a local cluster of a cross-site storage solution determines whether performance of an automated switchover from a failed cluster to a surviving cluster of the cross-site storage solution is enabled. Responsive to an affirmative determination, the node selectively proceeds with the automated switchover based on the configuration.

  • Patent number: 12008362
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing software resources such as machine learning/artificial intelligence models. The system includes a number of components that provide versioning services to both software resources and to data sets. A data storage component also addresses storage/retrieval functions for the system. A user interface element is also present to provide users with both a GUI and a command line interface. An assessment element assesses user selected software assets for project inclusion, with the assessment being based on good software development principles and practices. Once a project of selected software assets has passed the assessment stage, the software assets are pipelined for execution by an execution unit. The outputs of the execution unit are sent to a data output module automatically populates predetermined and preconfigured templates with the outputs to produce reports. The outputs may be final outputs or they may be intermediate results produced by the software assets.

  • Publication number: 20240160401
    Abstract: An example computing device is configured to use a first communication protocol to connect to a local network. After connecting to the local network, the computing device uses the first communication protocol to receive first information identifying a first playback device connected to the local network. The computing device also uses a second communication protocol different from the first communication protocol to connect to a second playback device that is not connected to the local network. Further, the computing device uses a third communication protocol different from the first and second communication protocols to receive second information identifying the second playback device. The computing device displays (i) a first representation of the first playback device based on the first information identifying the first playback device and (ii) a second representation of the second playback device based on the second information identifying the second playback device.
