Abstract: An embodiment of the invention allows a network access server to control network access for individual applications that run on a device. The device may be included in a machine-to-machine environment. The embodiment may provide a secure channel between the network access server and the device access layer and another secure channel between the device access layer and the device application layer. Thus, before applications are allowed to access the network those applications may be required to authenticate themselves via a secure channel. Other embodiments are described herein.

Abstract: Integrity management architecture is extended with trusted hash provisioning. The trusted hash provisioning ensures the integrity of a computing device. Thus, a multipurpose device can be as secure as a dedicated single-purpose device. The trusted hash provisioning includes determining a hash mask, and computing a trusted hash computation based on signatures of components identified as included within the scope of the hash. The computed trusted hash computation is used to determine integrity of the computing device.

Abstract: An apparatus may include a processor circuit and a machine type communication (MTC) device setup module operable on the processor circuit to determine when the apparatus is provisioned with a subscription to a local network, and to provide a device setup interface to automatically connect the apparatus to a machine type communication (MTC) subscriber independently of an operator of the local network. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: A method, system, and device for determining client-based user behavioral analytics includes monitoring for a predetermined behavioral event on a computing device. The predetermined behavioral event may be embodied as any event initiated by the user on the computing device such as the purchase of a product, selection of a web link, navigation to a website, etc. In response to an occurrence of the predetermined behavioral event, an affinity metric and an avidity metric are determined based on a frequency of the occurrences of the predetermined behavioral event. A behavioral index for the user is determined based on the affinity metric and the avidity metric. Additionally, in response to receiving a request for the behavioral index, the computing device may transmit the behavioral index to a content provider server or other remote computer and receive content from the content provider, which has been selected based on the user's behavioral index.

Abstract: Embodiments may comprise logic such as hardware and/or code to provide a secure device area network. Many embodiments comprise a gateway node or enterprise enhanced node with a services distribution frame installed on a customer's premises. The gateway node or enterprise enhanced node may interconnect the secure wireless device area network at the customer's premises with a cellular network. In many embodiments, the cellular network core may provision authentication credentials and security keys, and manage access polies to facilitate access by Application Service Providers to devices on premises including smart devices via a security and policy enforcement function of a services distribution frame of the gateway node or enterprise enhanced node, Authorized members of the secure wireless device area network may connect to the Wide Area Network (WAN) through the gateway node and the cellular network core.

Abstract: A method to enable browsers to manage connections across access networks is disclosed. The method manages network connections using a simple standard browser with the least amount of user interaction for all connections. The method uses standardized WiMAX activation and provisioning schemes for the management of connection profiles across the different access technologies.

Abstract: A system and method for aggregating subscriber information at a delivery edge is disclosed. The method comprises interfacing a user profile aggregation device (UPAD) at a subscriber location with at least one subscriber database in each of a wired network core and a wireless network core. The wired network core and the wireless network core are operated by a Multi-System network Operator. Profile information can be aggregated at the UPAD about the subscriber from at least one database in the wired network core and the wireless network core. The subscriber's aggregated profile information can be communicated to the MSO.

Abstract: A subscriber station with a secure element and an access control system combine to permit secure connections to a Wide Area Network, and to the terminal equipment within a customer premises network. A removable secure element provides a simplified upgradeability and portability of credentials to new hardware. Also, a terminal equipment device that does not have the ability to connect to the Wide Area Network gains the ability to connect to the Wide Area Network through any subscriber station with a secure element.

Abstract: A coextruded opaque multilayer film comprises an opaque thermoplastic polymer core and pigmented color layers on both sides of the core provided the composition of the core is different from the compositions of the pigmented color layers, and the pigmented color layers are not black or gray. The inventive film provides a method to vary the color or colors of the outer surfaces of the film which is advantageous in the variety of obtainable colors and also in cost when less expensive pigments are used in the opaque core which allows using less of expensive pigments in the pigmented color layers.

Abstract: A heat shrinkable label comprises (A) a heat shrinkable film comprising at least one thermoplastic polymer, and (B) a curable adhesive comprising (1) at least one urethane (meth)acrylate resin having an average of about 1 to about 1.6 (meth)acrylate groups per resin molecule, (2) at least one tackifier, and (3) at least one photoinitiator, where the film has an ultimate shrinkage at 135° C. of at least 15%, and the adhesive has sufficient precure tack, wherein the loop tack of the uncured adhesive is at least 4.3 g/cm2. The heat shrinkable label is useful in high-speed industrial processes such as beverage container labeling.

Abstract: Provided is a low friction, self-lubricating sleeve for use with a reciprocating piston in the compressor and/or the expander subsystem of a cryogenic cooler or other compressor type system. The sleeve is bonded to an outer surface of the piston, thereby positioning the sleeve between the piston and an inner wall of a piston cylinder. The sleeve is manufactured using a polyetheretherketone base material, as well as varying percentages of carbon and/or polytetrafluoroethylene fillers. The sleeve may include a dry lubricant such as graphite or molybdenum disulfide, and may extend for all or part of the length of the piston. The sleeve demonstrates negligible wear over thousands of hours of use in the cryogenic cooler, thereby minimizing system gas blow-back and maximizing system efficiency/performance.

Abstract: Attributes of a person such as biometrics information, associated vehicle number, relative location of residence are used to establish communication links rather than the network identifier of the communication unit possessed by the person.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a halogen-free, multilayered, uniaxially oriented heat shrink film comprising (A) a core layer comprising a blend of polyolefins; (B) a first skin layer on the upper surface of the core layer, and (C) a second skin layer on the lower surface of the core layer, wherein the first and second skin layers independently comprise a polyolefin blend and wherein the shrinkage of the film is at least about 40% in the machine direction at 270° F.
