Abstract: A system and method for improved application path selection for cloud-based applications from a client device. In one embodiment, a method includes collecting metrics of a remote user's use of one or more cloud-based applications, categorizing the one or more cloud-based applications based at least in part on the collected metrics, determining one or more secure network paths based at least in part on the categorizing of the one or more cloud-based applications, establishing the one or more secure network paths between the remote user and one or more network points-of-presence, and routing data traffic for the one or more cloud-based applications through the one or more established secure network paths.

Abstract: A jamming signal detection control method includes: receiving, at a satellite positioning signal receiver, one or more satellite positioning signals; determining, at the satellite positioning signal receiver, one or more quality metric values based on the one or more satellite positioning signals; determining, at the satellite positioning signal receiver, whether the one or more quality metric values are indicative of jamming; and activating, at the satellite positioning signal receiver and in response to the one or more quality metric values being indicative of jamming, a jammer detection technique to determine whether a jamming signal is received by the satellite positioning signal receiver.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a magnetic recording medium includes: a substrate, a seed layer positioned above the substrate, and a magnetic recording layer structure positioned above the seed layer. The magnetic recording layer structure includes: a first magnetic recording layer having a plurality of FePtCu magnetic grains and a first segregant, and a second magnetic recording layer positioned above the first magnetic recording layer, the second magnetic recording layer having a plurality of FePt magnetic grains and a second segregant, where a Curie temperature of the first magnetic recording layer is lower than a Curie temperature of the second magnetic recording layer.

Abstract: A method for the control of the magnetic states of interacting magnetic elements comprising providing a magnetic structure with a plurality of interacting magnetic elements. The magnetic structure comprises a plurality of magnetic states based on the state of each interacting magnetic element. The desired magnetic state of the magnetic structure is determined. The active resonance frequency and amplitude curve of the desired magnetic state is determined. Each magnetic element of the magnetic structure is then subjected to an alternating magnetic field or electrical current having a frequency and amplitude below the active resonance frequency and amplitude curve of said desired magnetic state and above the active resonance frequency and amplitude curve of the current state of the magnetic structure until the magnetic state of the magnetic structure is at the desired magnetic state.

Abstract: A customer can request migration of its data from a multi-tenant hosting environment to a local environment. The customer's data is pulled from the multi-tenant hosting environment and scrubbed so that it is compatible with a local version of the application previously hosted in the multi-tenant hosting environment. The data is made available to the customer at a secure location in the hosting environment. The customer retrieves the data, after proper authentication, to its local data store, and then imports the data into the local version of the application. Users of the local version of the application are then mapped from previous multi-jurisdictional identifications to local user identifications in the application.
