Abstract: In Secure-Asynchronous Signing, when a record is inserted into a collection of records by a user, the user specifies a registered digital certificate to associate with the record. The digital certificate was previously registered by the user. To subsequently sign a record, the user provides a digital signature. The digital signature is validated using data in the record and a public key of the digital certificate that was associated with the row. Invalid digital signatures are detected and rejected regardless of how long afterward the attempt to sign the row occurs after inserting the row.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing timely location estimates when a user equipment initiates a call to an emergency number are disclosed. The system enables a user equipment to send the earliest available location that the user equipment can come up with, after detecting an emergency message (e.g., detecting a 911 digit string). This can be done by sending the current location of the user equipment via HTTPS protocol to a telecommunications service provider node (e.g., an end point in GMLC). In this manner, the system avoids a major overhaul of the existing 3GPP E911 location standard while allowing timely compliance of the NG911 mandate.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining the quality of a civic address produced by a reverse geocoder, utilizing the uncertainty of a geodetic location and a distance between the geodetic location and a geocoded location (i.e., a civic address) determined by the reverse geocoder. Upon receiving a request by a PSAP for a civic address corresponding to a UE initiating a call for emergency services, a node initially identifies a geodetic location of the UE and an uncertainty of the geodetic location. The node initiates an API call to a reverse geocoder API. The node receives a geocoded location corresponding to the geodetic location and compares the geocoded location to the geodetic location to determine a distance between them. Based on the uncertainty of the geodetic location and the distance between the geodetic location and the geocoded location, a quality of the civic address is determined.

Abstract: In various examples, upon successful transmission of a device-based hybrid (DBH) location from a UE to a cellular network upon that UE placing an Enhanced 911 (E911) call, a horizontal uncertainty associated with the DBH location is taken into account. If that uncertainty reaches a threshold value, alternative location information in the form of one or more of a Cell Identity (CID) or an Enhanced Cell Identity (E-CID) associated with the UE can be used in generating a location report that is then sent to a Public Safety Answering Point. As a result, first responders may be able to more quickly locate distressed E911 callers.

Abstract: Techniques herein store database blocks (DBBs) in byte-addressable persistent memory (PMEM) and prevent tearing without deadlocking or waiting. In an embodiment, a computer hosts a DBMS. A reader process of the DBMS obtains, without locking and from metadata in PMEM, a first memory address for directly accessing a current version, which is a particular version, of a DBB in PMEM. Concurrently and without locking: a) the reader process reads the particular version of the DBB in PMEM, and b) a writer process of the DBMS replaces, in the metadata in PMEM, the first memory address with a second memory address for directly accessing a new version of the DBB in PMEM. In an embodiment, a computer performs without locking: a) storing, in PMEM, a DBB, b) copying into volatile memory, or reading, an image of the DBB, and c) detecting whether the image of the DBB is torn.
