  • Patent number: 11701835
    Abstract: Three-dimensional printing of objects is facilitated. For an object to be printed in three-dimensions (3D), one or more contact points relating to the object are determined. A contact point is at least one location on a base of a 3D printer in which a portion of the object is to contact the base based on printing the portion of the object. A centralized location of the base at which one or more movable blocks of the base are to be moved to position the one or more contact points at the centralized location to facilitate printing of the one or more portions of the object is also determined. A print plan to be used to print the object in three-dimensions is created, in which the print plan includes one or more instructions to print at least the one or more portions of the object at the centralized location.

  • Patent number: 11610002
    Abstract: Data privacy information pertaining to particular data hosted by a first workload provisioned to a first location can be received. The first workload can be monitored to determine whether the first workload is accessed by a second workload, determine whether the second workload is indicated as being authorized, in the data privacy information, to access the particular data hosted by first workload, and determine whether the second workload has access to the particular data hosted by the first workload. If so, the first workload can be automatically provisioned to a second location to which provisioning of the first workload is allowed based on the data privacy information.

  • Patent number: 11556330
    Abstract: A method and a system for automating security updates in a multi-tiered architecture of a system environment. The method includes receiving a software update note relating to a multi-tiered architecture system environment and determining a patch in the software update note is initially compatible with the system environment. The method also includes predicting, by a patch acceptance machine learning model, the patch is patchable within the system environment and predicting, by an installation machine learning model, an installation patch time for the patch on the system environment. The method also includes installing the patch at the installation patch time on the system environment, and validating the patch installation using a validation machine learning model.

  • Patent number: 11472120
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to light-based 3D printing. A computer aided design (CAD) representation of an object is obtained. Mirror and lighting requirements of a light-based 3D printer containing at least one mirror and at least one light source are determined based on the CAD representation of the object. Mirror and lighting characteristics of the at least one mirror and the at least one light source are adjusted based on the determined mirror and lighting requirements, the adjusting resulting in a first 3D light-based printer configuration. A 3D printing process is then initiated, wherein initiating the 3D printing process includes exposing a photosensitive material within the light-based 3D printer to light based on the first light-based 3D printer configuration.

    Abstract: A method (and structure) to connect a mobile device to a local Wi-Fi network includes providing an input capability for a user of the mobile device to request to make a connection to a local Wi-Fi network. A processor on the mobile device retrieves, from a memory device of the mobile device, a listing of registered local Wi-Fi networks available at the user's current location. A request to connect to a selected one of the registered local Wi-Fi networks listed on the retrieved listing of registered local Wi-Fi networks is transmitted from the mobile device. The mobile device is connected to the selected registered local Wi-Fi network upon receipt of an indication by the selected registered local Wi-Fi network that the user has been validated and verified as trustable.

  • Publication number: 20220101996
    Abstract: Detection and monitoring of health conditions that are accompanied by an injury site includes receiving, by one or more processors, an identifier associated with a patient and an associated first image, the first image corresponding to an injury in the injury site. The one or more processors analyze the associated first image using a machine learning model that includes an inference engine and a knowledge base. The machine learning model compares the associated first image against a patient data history and a tracking database. In response to a determination the injury site is associated with the health condition, the one or more processors generate a first result including sending a report containing the first result to a healthcare professional caring for the patient and display the first result informing the patient and healthcare professional the injury needs special care including requiring an appointment.
