  • Patent number: 12423087
    Abstract: A computer system includes a processor and a memory device. The computer system is configured to execute a function that builds a software instance definition object. The software instance definition object includes one or more configuration items, attributes, permissions, and linkages to other objects, which define a software instance. The computer system temporarily stores the software instance definition object in the memory device. The computer system updates at least one of the configuration items, attributes, permissions, and linkages to other objects of the stored software instance definition object, thereby creating an updated software instance definition object. A fix command is then executed to update the software instance based on the updated software instance definition object, thereby creating an updated software instance. After creating the updated software instance, the software instance definition object is deleted from the memory device.

  • Patent number: 11895122
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for team-sourced anomaly vetting via automatically-delegated role definition. The method may include automatically determining that an event of the computing system corresponding to activity of an end user is anomalous. Based on the anomalous event, a permission store of the computing system may automatically be edited to include an access restriction on the end user, and a notification may be automatically generated and transmitted to one or both of the end user and another end user. The notification may provide access to an executable statement including code configured to be executed to remove the access restriction. A call to the executable statement by the other end user may be automatically received. Further, the permission store may be automatically edited to remove the access restriction on the end user.

  • Patent number: 11891599
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the recovery of nucleic acids from a solid support, the method comprising the steps, in any suitable order, of: a) providing a solid support at least a region of which is absorbent and impregnated with a chaotropic agent; b) combining a biological sample, possibly including nucleic acids, with the region; c) washing the region in a washing buffer solution; d) simultaneously heating and agitating the region in a further buffer solution; e) separating the region from the further buffer solution; f) extracting at least a portion of any remaining further buffer solution from the region to provide an extracted buffer solution; g) combining the further buffer solution and the extracted buffer solution portion; and h) subsequently processing the combined buffer solutions in order to amplify any nucleic acids in said combined solution. Hardware suitable for implementing the above method and a kit of parts is disclosed also.

  • Publication number: 20230252887
    Abstract: A method for operating an infrastructure sensor system, wherein the infrastructure sensor system comprises a plurality of networked infrastructure sensors arranged on a shared mounting device. First, data are transmitted to a sway estimation module by at least one of the infrastructure sensors, wherein the data comprise at least pre-processed data, for example environmental information and/or current measurement data, in particular raw data, detected by the respective infrastructure sensor. The transmitted data are further processed in the next step and the sway estimation module determines therefrom a motion function for the mounting device. Based on the motion function, correction information, for example for at least one of the infrastructure sensors, is now determined by the sway estimation module. The correction information and/or motion function can now be provided for further use, for example, to the respective infrastructure sensors or to a central computing unit.
