Abstract: A microstructured optical fiber sensor for sensing changes in a physical characteristic up to a predetermined temperature is disclosed. The sensor includes a microstructured optical fiber and a fiber Bragg grating formed in the microstructured optical fiber by generating a periodic modulation in the refractive index along a core region of the suspended core. The fiber Bragg grating is configured to produce a band reflection spectra including a fundamental mode and a plurality of higher order modes whose respective wavelengths vary in accordance with changes in the physical characteristic at the core region of the microstructured optical fiber. The microstructured optical fiber is configured to increase the confinement loss of the plurality of higher order modes of the band reflection spectra relative to the fundamental mode.

Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for identifying and consenting to permissions for workflow and code execution. Aspects of the invention can be used to automatically scan a workflow or code definition to identify (potentially all) the actions/triggers a workflow or program intends to perform on behalf of a user. The user is shown the actions/triggers the workflow or program intends to perform (e.g., at a user interface) before consent to perform the actions/triggers is granted. As such, a user is aware of intended actions/triggers of a workflow or program before granting consent. Further, since actions/triggers are identified from the workflow or code definition (and not formulated by an author), permission requests better align with permissions that workflow or program functionality actually uses during execution.

Abstract: Techniques are described for verifying connectivity in a virtualized computing environment comprising networked computing devices having internal endpoints that are configured with operational connectivity to external endpoints. A connectivity test component is configured to execute as a virtual resource in the virtualized computing environment, execute protocol-aware connectivity tests that enable detection of connectivity errors between the internal endpoints and external endpoints, and instantiate or access network interfaces for establishing connectivity between the internal endpoints and external endpoints. A configuration file defines connectivity types between the internal endpoints and external endpoints. Based on the configuration file, the connectivity test component is executed in the virtualized computing environment. An output is generated by the connectivity test component that is indicative of results of connectivity attempts in accordance with the configuration file.
