Abstract: A method and system may be implemented for automatically analyzing data in a database. A method for use in a low-latency database analysis system may include generating a schema. The schema may be based on a portion of an external database. The method may include storing the schema in an in-memory database. The method may include receiving a data-query. The method may include generating a resolved-request. The resolved-request may be based on the data-query and the stored schema. The stored schema may be used for executing the query on the external database. The method may include receiving results data responsive to the data-query from the external database. The method may include outputting the results data for display on a user interface.

Abstract: Approaches, techniques, and mechanisms are disclosed for large scale vehicle data collaborative analysis. According to one embodiment, a large amount of data streams is received from a multitude of vehicles. A distributed event streaming system is applied to parse the data streams based on an attribute, such as time sensitive data, location-specific data, or vehicle maintenance, operational, or fault-prevention data. A data container platform instance hosts applications that receive the parsed data streams. Output of an application is transformed into data streams having a common topic. Other applications may access the data streams by topic. Upon receiving an indication that an application has processed a data stream by topic, a decision point may be reached and executed by an external application, triggering an action on a vehicle from the multitude of vehicles.

Abstract: This disclosure concerns the use of endogenous plant RNAi machinery to preferentially or specifically reduce transgene expression. In some embodiments, the disclosure concerns specific reduction of transgene expression in seed tissues of a dicot plant.

Abstract: Multi-envelope encryption provides redundancy for highly-available storage of encrypted data. Data, such as a “snapshot” representing values of every block of a block storage volume or device at a specific point in time, may be encrypted before storage to prevent unauthorized access to the data. To further protect the data and prevent unauthorized access to the data, additional security measures may be taken. Multiple copies of the data key that is to be used to decrypt the data may be encrypted and stored separately from the encrypted data as envelopes. The different envelopes may each be encrypted using envelope keys. If one envelope key is later lost or otherwise becomes unavailable, the encrypted data can still be accessed by using a different envelope key to recover the data key and decrypt the data.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to verifying external accounts in real-time using dynamic smart contracts. A computing platform may receive a consumer request to initiate a transaction, at an enterprise organization, with an entity associated with an account. The computing platform may use the received consumer request to generate a smart contract profile associated with the entity. The computing platform may use the smart contract profile associated with the entity to determine a trust score associated with the entity. The computing platform may gather data indicating external accounts associated with the entity. The computing platform may use the data indicating the external accounts associated with the entity to determine a confidence threshold value. The computing platform may compare the trust score associated with the entity to the confidence threshold value to verify the legitimacy of the account associated with the entity.

Thereto, the invention provides a lighting device comprising: a directional wireless receiver configured to receive a message within a time period, wherein the message comprises at least one signal comprising a factory reset command from a user device; a controller configured to implement a factory reset of the lighting device if a respective signal of said at least one signal is received within a respective predefined angular range relative to the lighting device.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device comprises: a first die having disposed thereon a first plurality of latches wherein ones of the first plurality of latches are operatively connected to an adjacent one of the first plurality of latches; and a second die having disposed thereon a second plurality of latches wherein ones of the second plurality of latches are operatively connected to an adjacent one of the second plurality of latches. Each latch of the first plurality of latches on said first die corresponds to a latch in the second plurality of latches on said second die. Each set of corresponding latches are operatively connected. A scan path comprises a closed loop comprising each of said first and second plurality of latches. One of the second plurality of latches is operatively connected to another one of the second plurality of latches via an inverter.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses may provide virtualization of device management services (e.g., device drivers) dedicated managing a particular device and designed under for or under the assumption the particular device and the device management service will be utilized in a single session/user environment, so that virtual instances of the device management services may be used in a multi-session environment. Further, a redirection and/or virtualization layer may be created for each session in the multi-session environment to perform global database redirection, object name translation, and file system translation to ensure session boundaries are maintained and global/shared resources are not inappropriately altered by a session. As an example, the redirection/virtualization layer may redirect communications associated with a session and for a global resource to access a virtual instance of the resource specific to the session.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for efficient handling of user requests to access shared resources in a distributed system, which handling may include throttling access to resources on a per-resource basis. A distributed load-balancing system can be logically represented as a hierarchical token bucket cache, where a global cache contains token buckets corresponding to individual resources whose tokens can be dispensed to service hosts each maintaining a local cache with token buckets that limit the servicing of requests to access those resources. Local and global caches can be implemented with a variant of a lazy token bucket algorithm to enable limiting the amount of communication required to manage cache state. High granularity of resource management can thus enable increased throttle limits on user accounts without risking overutilization of individual resources.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for an inducible, high efficiency intra-genomic homologous recombination (IGHR) system in plants, that can be used for non-chimeric, heritable gene targeting. The advantage of IGHR approach to targeted integration is that every cell contains donor DNA and nuclease-encoding sequences, so that there are many potentially homology-directed targeting events that can occur during plant development.
