Abstract: Systems and methods for performing customizable analysis of a communication session between two entities includes loading predetermined first parser definitions, stored as at least one binary file, receiving second parser definitions in a form other than a binary file form, after the first parser definitions are already operating, loading and compiling the second parser definitions, and applying the first and second parser definitions to a communication session, wherein the first parser definitions identify standard components of the communication session and the second parser definitions are customizable and identify non-standard components of the communication session.

Abstract: Rail mounting apparatus including a base having a mount surface including at least one tab for mounting a first edge of the rail relative to the mount surface, a side surface including a guide clip, and a connector guide slot extending from the side surface; a mounting clip including: a body slidingly mounted in the guide clip, a rail engaging member at a first end of the body for engaging a second edge of the rail, a connector mount at a second end of the body; and a connector extending through the guide slot and received in the connector mount of the mounting clip, wherein coupling of the connector to the connector mount slidingly moves the mounting clip in the guide clip to engage the rail engaging member with the second edge of the rail and hold the second edge of the rail relative to the mount surface of the base.

Abstract: A system for, and method of, extracting information from multiple sessions and in accordance with disparate protocols, and transforming the same into a common language. Packets are collected by packet collectors distributed throughout a network and those packets, and/or metadata relating to those packets, are passed to an aggregator, which is made available via an application program interface to users/applications.

Abstract: A system for and method of extracting information from multiple sessions of disparate protocols into a common language is disclosed. A method of creating a record conforming to an event-based language is also disclosed. A system configured to create a record conforming to an event-based language is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of visualizing network data includes parsing a collection of packets in accordance with a set of categories related to characteristics of the collection of packets, the categories including listings of categorical elements, wherein at least some of the categorical elements are selectable by a user. When a categorical element is selected by a user, the collection of packets is filtered in accordance with the selected categorical element. Alongside each categorical element is a selectable count value that is indicative of the number of discrete communications sessions in which an associated categorical element is present in the collection of packets. When the count value is selected, a session view or views is/are created for each respective session, with content payload available for review and viewing.

Abstract: A rotor for a wind turbine generator includes a rotatable hub forming a cavity. A plurality of rotor blades is connected to the hub. A heat sink is at least partially positioned within the cavity and extends along a portion of a corresponding rotor blade. The heat sink includes a bottom surface mounted on a thermal energy generating component of the wind turbine generator. An opposing top planar surface includes a plurality of pins extending therefrom. The pins form an air flow path through the pins to dissipate the generated thermal energy from the thermal energy generating component.

Abstract: A ferrite assembly has a first conductor and a number of ferrite members. Each of the number of ferrite members has a core. The ferrite members are in electrical communication with the first conductor. The ferrite assembly has a number of current dividing members in electrical communication with the first conductor. The current dividing members define a number of passages for allowing an airflow therethrough.

Abstract: A system for network security transparently occupies an observation port on the data stream, passing the entire range of network information to a dedicated interpreter. The interpreter resolves the data stream into individual data packets, which are then assembled into reconstructed network sessions according to parameters such as protocol type, source and destination addresses, source and destination ports, sequence numbers and other variables. The different types of sessions may include the traffic of many different types of users, such as e-mail, streaming video, voice-over-Internet and others. The system detects and stores the sessions into a database. A parser module may extract only the minimum information needed to reconstruct individual sessions. A backend interface permits a systems administrator to interrogate the forensic record of the network for maintenance, security and other purposes.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for mounting electrical devices in a housing at an angle relative to the ground is provided. The apparatus comprises a housing having a top, bottom, and sides, each of which may be open, closed or ventilated. One or more electrical devices are located in the housing and are oriented at an angle relative to the horizontal ground. The electrical devices may be silicon controlled rectifiers that serve as a power bridge between an exciter and a power generator. A method for mounting electrical devices in a housing at an angle relative to the horizontal ground is also provided.

Abstract: This invention is a means for securely connecting a loop of webbing around an object then providing for the release and retrieval of the webbing from a remote location using a small pull cord. The primary application for the invention is rappelling. Rock climbers and canyoneers typically need to leave behind equipment after they complete a rappel. With this invention, all equipment associated with rappelling, including webbing used to attach a rope to an anchor, can be retrieved. This saves the rappeller money, as well as satisfy public land managers (ie, National Park Service) who are increasing becoming intolerant of “fixed” rappel anchors left behind by rappellers.
