Abstract: TPM attestation for soft reboots is described herein. One embodiment includes instructions to receive a request to perform a soft reboot of a computing device executing an existing OS instance and having a TPM, and perform a soft reboot process on the computing device responsive to receiving the request. The soft reboot process can include loading a new kernel and boot modules associated with a new OS instance into a memory of the computing device, measuring the boot modules into PCRs of the TPM, generating entries in an event log of the TPM corresponding to the boot modules and the new kernel, exporting the event log and a metadata file associated with the existing OS instance to storage, importing the event log from storage to the new kernel, copying the metadata file from storage to a server, and storing a new metadata file created from manifests of the new OS instance at the server.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions including monoglycerides and alkyl esters of fatty acids. An exemplary embodiment includes about 15 wt % to about 99 wt % of one or more monoglycerides of a C4-C28 fatty acid, and about 1 wt % to about 75 wt % of one or more alkyl esters of a C8-C20 fatty acid.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions including monoglycerides and co-surfactants. An exemplary embodiment includes about 40 wt % to about 99 wt % of one or more monoglycerides of a C4-C28 fatty acid, about 0.1 wt % to about 20 wt % of one or more salts of a C4-C28 fatty acid, and about 0.1 wt % to about 20 wt % of one or more zwitterions.

Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for a non-disruptive system upgrade. Embodiments include installing an upgraded version of an operating system (OS) on a computing system while a current version of the OS continues to run. Embodiments include entering a maintenance mode on the computing system, including preventing the addition of new applications and modifying the handling of storage operations on the computing system for the duration of the maintenance mode. Embodiments include, during the maintenance mode, configuring the upgraded version of the OS. Embodiments include, after configuring the upgraded version of the OS, suspending a subset of applications running on the computing system, transferring control over resources of the computing system to the upgraded version of the OS, and resuming the subset of the applications running on the computing system. Embodiments include exiting the maintenance mode on the computing system.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to protective coatings e.g., on agricultural products, that can include a glycerophospholipid bilayer structure formed on the surface of the agricultural product.

Abstract: Compositions for forming protective coatings on, e.g., agricultural products, can form a bilayer structure on the surface of the agricultural product that forms a barrier to fluids such as water and gases.

Abstract: Presented herein are barrier film compositions that can be used, for example, as protective coatings for plant matter (e.g., agricultural products). In some embodiments, the compositions delay moisture loss and/or decrease respiration to extend the shelf life of the plant matter. In one embodiment, the barrier film composition comprises a first component comprising a charged long chain alkyl and a second component having an opposing charge. The barrier film composition can be used to prevent or delay spoilage due to, for instance, desiccation and ripening.
