Abstract: In an approach to protecting against out-of-bounds buffer references, an apparatus comprises one or more processor cores and a bounds-checking functional unit in each processor core configured to manage bounds information for one or more memory buffers. When a buffer is allocated, an address range of the buffer is stored.

When the pointer is used to compute an address for an operation, whether the address for the operation is within the address range associated with the pointer is determined. If the address is not within the address range associated with the pointer, signaling that an error has occurred.

In this approach, only encrypted copies of the customer's content objects are maintained within the portion of the edge network, but without any need to manage the encryption keys. To take full advantage of the secure content caching technique, preferably the encrypted content (or portions thereof) are pre-positioned within the edge network portion to improve performance of secure content delivery from the environment.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are structures, devices, and systems for detecting touch and force inputs at multiple sensing locations on a surface of an electronic device using waveguide-based interferometry. A laser light source, such as a VCSEL, inserts light into a waveguide positioned adjacent to the sensing locations, and an input at a sensing location alters the inserted light in the waveguide allowing for determination of the input's touch or force at the sensing location. Wavelength modulation of the inserted light allows isolation in frequency of the signals from each sensing location. Optical phase locking can be used to lock an absolute distance beat frequency corresponding to a stationary reference point in the waveguide.

Abstract: An ion source can include a magnetic field generator configured to generate a magnetic field in a direction parallel to a direction of the electron beam and coincident with the electron beam. However, this magnetic field can also influence the path of ionized sample constituents as they pass through and exit the ion source. An ion source can include an electric field generator to compensate for this effect. As an example, the electric field generator can be configured to generate an electric field within the ion source chamber, such that an additional force is imparted on the ionized sample constituents, opposite in direction and substantially equal in magnitude to the force imparted on the ionized sample constituents by the magnetic field.
