Abstract: A computer program product, a computer-implemented method, and a computer system include a processor(s) that obtains side channel emanations from a device. The processor(s) analyzes the side channel emanations to identify distinct emanation patterns and timing characteristics, wherein the timing characteristics are associated with transitions between the distinct emanation patterns. The processor(s) generates a non-deterministic finite automaton (NFA) by correlating the distinct emanation patterns with states of the device, where the NFA captures states and state transitions of the device. The processor(s) identifies an anomaly in the device, based on deviation in emanations from the device.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program which enables the reception of chassis status by a remote management console from different types of computers servers having different implementations of intelligent platform management interface (IPMI). This system, method and computer program utilizes a platform instrumentation control GUI located in the console to request chassis status and receive chassis from the server. Further, a component instrumentation module located in the server is used to receive the chassis status request from the console and retrieve the chassis status from platform management hardware located in the sever.

Abstract: The present invention is broadly directed to methods of screening viral-binding compounds. In particular, the present invention provides cell-free assays to rapidly screen libraries of compounds for viral-capsid binding activity. Such compounds are useful for anti-viral treatments.

Abstract: Customer premise network configuration to enable a new service within the network is provided by a network configuration manager. The network configuration manager is either manually or automatically invoked upon a new service being used in the network. The configuration manager obtains a service template for the service, which template provides generic end-to-end requirements for enabling the service. A configuration generator generates vendor-neutral device-configuration settings from the service template. A service configuration validator module then validates the service. Finally, an adaptor module translates the vendor-neutral device-configuration settings to vendor specific configuration settings corresponding to the devices in the network and configures the devices.

Abstract: Errant conditions, including configuration issues, device/application failures, and performance problems, affecting a home network are detected by considering end-to-end information flows within the home network and between the home network and an external network. Specifically, errant conditions are detected by analyzing monitored network information flows, by analyzing responses resulting from the active stimuli of hardware/software components within the home and external network, and by considering in this analysis configuration information obtained from network devices. Gathered information and detected errant conditions are reported to an administrative management system for further analysis and for use by a help-desk administrator or home user in resolving the reported conditions.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program enabling communications and the exchange of information between a Desktop Management Interface (DMI) network and a Common Information Model (CIM) network. A CIM to DMI provider is utilized to receive events, interrupts, and messages from both the CIM and DMI network and convert these events, interrupts, and messages to the appropriate format for each of the networks. Further, a proxy CIM object manager (CIMOM) is utilized to establish communications with CIM client applications and to interface to the CIM to DMI provider. This system, method and computer program does not require the modification or alteration of an existing DMI network in order to communicate to a CIM network.

Abstract: Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is used to communicate with Network-capable appliances. In a system employing SIP, a remote user agent client (UAC) sends a message over the Internet via a Proxy server to a user agent server at the location of the appliances, e.g., the client's home. This communications channel allows the client to control the appliances and to determine their status. The Proxy server between the UAC and a plurality of UAS processors has the address mapping, authentication, authorization and/or translation functions out-sourced from the UAS processors to the Proxy server connected to them.

Abstract: Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) is used to communicate with Network-capable appliances by leveraging SIP capabilities to directly communicate with appliances, even when they are behind firewalls, Network Address Translators or other entities that prevent direct end-to-end communication. A remote user agent client (UAC) sends a message over the Internet via proxy servers to a user agent server at the location of the appliances, e.g., the client's home. This communications channel allows the client to control the appliances and to determine their status. In order to enable this operation, conventional SIP messages are extended to a DO message that includes a universal resource locator (URL) without location information otherwise specified in the SIP message and a generalized payload body with control and/or query instructions specific to networked appliances. When the command message is a SIP INVITE type, it includes a description of the appliance.
