  • Publication number: 20240069860
    Abstract: A voice-controlled question answering system that is capable of answering questions using both a knowledge base and a search engine. The knowledge base is used to answer questions when answers to those questions are contained in the knowledge base. If an answer using the knowledge base is unavailable, and if the question is suitable for answering using an unstructured search approach, the system may obtain an answer using a search engine. The search engine results may be processed to obtain an answer to the question suitable for output using a voice user interface.

  • Publication number: 20230362131
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for securing a network including one or more network nodes connecting a plurality of network connected devices of the network. A method may include: receiving and temporarily storing a plurality of data packets in a shared buffer of a network node; receiving requests from a first processing engine and a second processing engine to access a temporarily stored data packet; generating a first pointer and a second pointer to the temporarily stored data packet, the second pointer being different from the first pointer while pointing to the same temporarily stored data packet; and enabling the first processing engine to use the generated first pointer to access the temporarily stored data packet and the second processing engine to use the generated second pointer to access the temporarily stored data packet.

  • Patent number: 11613109
    Abstract: A multilayer substrate material configured to be applied to a back surface of an upholstery or mattress textile fabric and a front surface configured to contact a user of the upholstery or mattress textile fabric. The multilayer substrate material includes protector, adhesive, film and backcoat layers. The adhesive layer is applied to the protector layer and formed of a number of discrete and non-continuous regions. The film layer is applied to the adhesive layer. The number of discrete and non-continuous regions include an interface between the protector layer and the film layer such that the protector layer touches the film layer at the interface. The backcoat layer is applied to the film layer and includes a non-acrylic binder and a flame retardant material. The number of discrete and non-continuous regions form a number of non-adhesive regions therebetween configured to not resist flexing of the protector, film and backcoat layers.

  • Publication number: 20220383760
    Abstract: Presented herein are systems and methods for operating a flight plan based distributed ledger system implemented on an aviation communications network. According to an aspect, data associated with communication transmissions occurring between communications elements of the aviation communications network may be recorded on the distributed ledger system. The communications elements involved in the distributed ledger system may be determined using a received flight plan. The flight plan information may be used to initialize the ledger information at each communications element involved in the distributed ledger system. The distributed ledger system may be updated to add or remove communications elements if the flight deviates from the original flight plan. After the flight plan is executed, the distributed ledger system may inactivate the ledger and store the ledger information in a centralized repository.

  • Publication number: 20220311791
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for securing a network. A method may include obtaining, by a detection engine, an encapsulated image defining an action for a predetermined data packet of interest; determining, by the detection engine, that the action defined by the encapsulated image should be applied to one or more data packets accessed by the detection engine; generating and deploying, by the detection engine, an action state including one or more attributes associated with the accessed data packet and the encapsulated image; determining, at a first execution engine executing parallel with the detection engine, that the one or more data packets comprises attributes matching the one or more attributes included in the deployed action state; and executing, by the first execution engine, the action included in the deployed action state on a received data packet to generate a processed data packet.

  • Publication number: 20220255958
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for securing a network using one or more controllers and one or more network nodes. A method may utilize a packet processing engine configured to process incoming network packets, a processing analysis engine configured to perform relatively more complex processing and analysis, and one or more controllers configured to coordinate one or more packet processing engines and one or more processing analysis engines across a network to perform endpoint threat detection and mitigation.

  • Patent number: 11235556
    Abstract: A finished composite material having a film layer, a fibrous material layer and a discontinuous adhesive region layer situated between the film layer and the fibrous material layer. The discontinuous adhesive region layer adheres the film layer to the fibrous material layer. The discontinuous adhesive layer forms a number of discrete and non-continuous regions including an interface between the film layer and the fibrous material layer such that the film layer touches the fibrous material layer at the interface. The number of discrete and non-continuous regions forms a number of non-adhesive regions therebetween configured to not resist flexing of the film layer and the fibrous material layer. The finished composite material further includes an upholstery or mattress textile fabric substrate having a thickness of 0.5 to 2.0 millimeters. The front surface of the upholstery or mattress textile fabric substrate is configured to contact a user of the fabric substrate.

  • Publication number: 20210269105
    Abstract: A recreational fifth wheel travel trailer includes a frame, a wheel for supporting the frame on a ground surface, and a body supported by the frame. The body has a length defined between a front end and a rear end of the body. A roof is coupled to the body, and an interior space is defined in the body between a floor and the roof. The travel trailer includes a door for providing entry to the interior space, a step for gaining access to the floor of the interior space, and a storage compartment at least partially formed by the body. The storage compartment is located below the floor of the interior space. The floor is defined along a plane from the rear end of the body to a location near the front end thereof such that the interior space is accessible without traversing more than a single step.

  • Patent number: 11000343
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to dry inks for use in marking the eye prior to surgery and methods of applying the same to eye marking devices. Such inks can include various accepted inks for use on the eye that can be applied to a marking device using relatively fast-evaporating solvents. In this manner, the remaining ink composition can be precisely placed on the eye marking device, and desirably transfer to the marking surface of the eye without dissolving on the journey through the various membranes above the marking surface. Application methods may include use of charged ink particles that may be advantageously manipulated using magnetic fields to even more precisely place the dry ink on a marking device.
