Patent number: 11961129Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein provide a geo-targeted online reservation system that ensures authenticity of customer devices requesting reservations by generating reservations only if threshold authentication conditions are satisfied. For example, a computing device registered with a server system receives inputs for requesting a reservation of a limited release product and for configuring the product. To authenticate the computing device, the server device transmits an electronic message to the computing device requesting the computing device to respond. A response to the message is one threshold authentication condition for generating the reservation. Upon determining that one or more threshold authentication conditions are satisfied, the server device generates a reservation for the product.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: adidas AGInventors: Gordon Gibson Lanpher, Roger Brandon Beaty, Jonathan Matthew Shaw, Katharine Reinhold, Ryan Robert O. Malia, Megan Murphy Millard, Simon Atkins, Todd Ames

Patent number: 11954419Abstract: A system may include a set of compute engines. The compute engines may be configured to perform electronic design automation (EDA) operations on a hierarchical dataset representative of an integrated circuit (IC) design. The system may also include a dynamic resource balancing engine configured to allocate computing resources to the set of compute engines and reallocate a particular computing resource allocated to a first compute engine based on an operation priority of an EDA operation performed by a second compute engine, an idle indicator for the first compute engine, or a combination of both.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2018Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Siemens Industry Software Inc.Inventors: Patrick D. Gibson, Robert A. Todd, Jimmy J. Tomblin

Patent number: 11751055Abstract: Integrity protection is used to assist in ensuring the secure transmission of wireless data within a cellular network. Instead of performing integrity protection on each packet data unit (PDU) transmitted/received within a PDU session, integrity protection is performed on a portion of PDUs transmitted within a cellular network. For instance, partial integrity protection may be performed on at least one predetermined PDU (e.g., the first, second, fourth, . . . ) that is transmitted via a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH)/Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) during a communication session. By performing partial integrity protection, user data may be transmitted more quickly throughout the cellular network, compared to performing full integrity protection, while still providing integrity protection.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2020Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventors: John J. Humbert, Wafik Abdel Shahid, Joshua Finger, Geoffrey Todd Gibson, Jean Cheryl Trakinat, Ming Shan Kwok, Boris Antsev

Publication number: 20230220932Abstract: A multi-cable transit may include a plurality of modules disposed within the frame assembly; each of the plurality of modules comprising: an upper housing, a lower housing disposed opposite the upper housing; and a plurality of upper layers and a plurality of lower layers disposed between the upper housing and the lower housing; and a compression wedge unit connected between the frame assembly and the plurality of modules, wherein expansion of the compression wedge unit compresses the plurality of modules within the frame assembly to form a gas-tight seal within the plurality of modules. A single cable transit may include a pair of component halves, each of the pair of component halves comprising: a u-shaped body having a curved outer surface and contoured inner surface; a plurality of interlocking layers; and a compression member configured to axially compress the u-shaped body.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2023Publication date: July 13, 2023Applicant: CAPE Industries, LLCInventors: Allen Todd GIBSON, Solomon Otto WHITAKER, Melissa A.

Publication number: 20230199498Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting false base stations are provided. A computing device transmits a request for a verification message to a base station. An encrypted verification message comprising a base station identifier and a signature encrypted using an encryption key associated with the base station is received by the computing device. The computing device decrypts the signature included in the encrypted verification message utilizing a decryption key associated with the computer system. Based on the decrypted signature, the computing device determines that the encryption key does not correspond to the decryption key. Based on determining that the encryption key does not correspond to the decryption key, the computing device stores the base station identifier in a data store in association with a false base station indicator.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2021Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventors: Gregory Schumacher, Marouane Balmakhtar, Geoffrey Todd Gibson

Publication number: 20230171680Abstract: A wireless communication network serves a Network Exposure Function (NEF) slice to User Equipment (UE). An Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) selects a NEF slice for the UE. A Session Management Function (SMF) selects a NEF address for the NEF slice for the UE. A User Plane Function (UPF) exchanges Application Programming Interface (API) calls and responses between the UE and a NEF based on the NEF address. The NEF exchanges the API messages with the UE over the UPF. The NEF slice may comprise an edge NEF slice that is selected based on the geographic location of the UE and that features a local NEF element that is coupled to a core NEF element.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2021Publication date: June 1, 2023Inventors: Marouane Balmakhtar, Gregory David Schumacher, Geoffrey Todd Gibson

Patent number: 11600976Abstract: A cable gland and methods for earthing, grounding, bonding, and electromagnetic capability with armored, metal-clad, and metallic-sheathed cable types. The cable gland comprises a gland body, a plurality of extensions, an elastomer seal, a compression member configured to rotate the plurality of extensions towards to the elastomer seal, and an earthing insert mounted in the gland body configured to electrically connect a cable to a neutral and/or grounded conductor. The cable gland is configured to provide an air-tight seal between the exterior of the cable and the elastomer seal through rotation of the plurality of extension upon the elastomer seal. The cable gland may include an o-ring and nut to secure the cable gland to a planar body. The earthing insert comprises a grounding spring in electrical communication with a metallic portion of the cable and a neutral and/or grounded conductor.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Inventors: Allen Todd Gibson, Melissa A.
