Abstract: A magnetic levitation device for levitating a marker or suspending the marker away from the device having a housing having an outer portion and a lower portion. The device has an electromagnetic configuration positioned on disc and the disc can move or rotate the marker at a constant or variable speed. The rotating disc is configured with the electromagnetic configuration and a gear assembly.

Abstract: A computer implemented method of providing connectivity between two or more primary assets, each primary asset comprising a hardware component or a software component, the method comprising receiving a request to provide connectivity between the primary assets; accessing a repository that stores a list of assets and metadata associated with each asset; using the metadata in the repository to generate an hierarchical list of assets; rationalising the hierarchical list of assets by selecting a group of assets from the hierarchical list of assets to be used in providing connectivity between the primary assets; and generating, based on operating parameters of each asset in the group of assets, a deployment plan for the group of assets, wherein the deployment plan defines settings and/or connections to be used between the assets in the group of assets in order to provide connectivity between the two or more primary assets.

Abstract: Aspects of the technology implement a authenticating protocol that enables a Trusted Provider to vouch for a requesting entity when that entity seeks verification from an authenticating entity (FIG. 1). This is done without sharing the requesting entity's confidential or other personal information directly with the authenticating entity (FIG. 1). Instead, the Trusted Provider is able to use specific information about a requesting entity, such as contact information that forms an identity record (404), and generate a hash of the record (408). The hash is sent to an authenticating entity (410), which returns a secure token to the Trusted Provider (508). The secure token and identity record information are used to create a verification URL (414), which is shared with the requesting entity (416). The verification URL, when clicked, links back to the authenticating entity (FIG. 1), which validates the requesting entity (512, 514).

Abstract: A magnetic levitation timing device for levitating a marker or suspending the marker away from the device has a housing having an outer portion and a lower portion. An electromagnetic force driving configuration can move or rotate the marker at a constant or variable speed on, about or around the outer portion of the housing.
