Patent number: 11943207Abstract: Methods, systems, and use cases for one-touch inline cryptographic data security are discussed, including an edge computing device with a network communications circuitry (NCC), an enhanced DMA engine coupled to a memory device and including a cryptographic engine, and processing circuitry configured to perform a secure exchange with a second edge computing device to negotiate a shared symmetric encryption key, based on a request for data. An inline encryption command for communication to the enhanced DMA engine is generated. The inline encryption command includes a first address associated with a storage location storing the data, a second address associated with a memory location in the memory device, and the shared symmetric encryption key. The data is retrieved from the storage location using the first address, the data is encrypted using the shared symmetric encryption key, and the encrypted data is stored in the memory location using the second address.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2020Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Kshitij Arun Doshi, Uzair Qureshi, Lokpraveen Mosur, Patrick Fleming, Stephen Doyle, Brian Andrew Keating, Ned M.

Patent number: 7954681Abstract: A new and improved nailing bridge system which comprises a single nailing gun which is mounted for movement along a stud frame locus or a seam locus, defined by means of abutting sheets of wall sheathing, covering, paneling, or the like, wherein the single nailing gun can be moved to any one of effectively an infinite number of positions so as to permit nails to be driven into the covering, sheathing, paneling, or the like, in order to fixedly secure the sheathing, covering, paneling, or the like, to underlying stud frame members of a wall structure or wall panel member. Stitcher guns are also mounted upon a separate support beam so as to fixedly secure the sheathing, covering, paneling, or the like, to the upper and lower plate, header, or footer members of the wall structure or wall panel member.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2008Date of Patent: June 7, 2011Assignee: Illinois Tool Works Inc.Inventors: Aubrey Smith, Stephen Fleming, Robert Tucker, Douglas Dodd

Patent number: 7554880Abstract: A method generates at least one route traversing a plurality of predetermined survey paths in a marine survey. The method includes generating a plurality of routes traversing a subset of the predetermined survey paths. The routes satisfy survey constraints such as run in and run out distances and minimum turn radius. Penalties are generated for the routes, including line change penalties, hazard penalties, streamer feather penalties, and penalties based on survey line priorities, total survey distance and duration, maintenance requirements, and the final location of the ship performing the survey. At least one of the routes is selected on the basis of the penalties.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2002Date of Patent: June 30, 2009Inventor: Ronald Stephen Fleming
