  • Patent number: 11588834
    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying attack patterns or suspicious activity can include a profile builder, a primitive creator, and a compromise detector. The profile builder can populate one or more baseline activity profiles for each client of the plurality of clients or entities associated therewith. The primitive creator can create primitives by comparing identified or extracted features to information in the one or more baseline activity profiles. The compromise detector can receive primitives, and based on identified combinations or sequences of primitives, generate compromise events to be provided to clients.

  • Patent number: 11141297
    Abstract: An endovascular delivery device is disclosed. The device comprises a handle assembly at a distal end thereof and a top-cap assembly at a proximal end thereof. The top-cap assembly has an open configuration and a closed configuration and comprises: a capsule comprising an inner portion and an outer tubular portion and defining a cavity within the outer tubular portion, the cavity receiving the proximal portion of the endograft in the open configuration; and a retriever assembly having a body portion arranged and constructed to fit within the cavity of the capsule in the closed configuration. The device further comprises: a guide wire catheter extending through the handle assembly, the guide wire catheter being affixed at a proximal end thereof to the top-cap assembly; and an endograft receiving portion extending distally with respect to the top-cap assembly. In the closed configuration, the cavity is closed by the body portion of the retriever assembly.

  • Publication number: 20130252847
    Abstract: The present invention relates to assay assemblies, components of assay assemblies, methods of determining one or more properties of a sample liquid, and methods of making components of assay assemblies. The present invention allows the properties of very small volumes of sample liquid to be probed, by providing a first surface having at least one sample liquid wettable surface region defined by a sample liquid repelling boundary, and a second surface, opposed to the first surface, having analyte binding agent immobilised thereon.

  • Publication number: 20080098879
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a number of fluid filled compartments constructed in such a manner to mitigate the explosive effects of a small improvised explosive device (IED). This IED constructed to resemble an everyday electronic device such as a mobile phone. These fluids will be generally be but not limited to water and air. The invention known as IFIM will provide a scientific approach to the rendering safe of an IED by non explosively trained personnel. It will replace or support the current Least Risk Option which requires a level of technical skill and expertise to deal with an IED threat effectively. It will provide a quicker and more practical solution to the rendering safe of an IED threat till Bomb Disposal personnel can attend. The IFIM will be particularly effective when dealing with an IED threat on domestic aircraft.

  • Patent number: 5746183
    Abstract: A method and system for determining and controlling the fuel mass to be delivered to an individual cylinder of an internal combustion engine during engine transients compensates for fuel transport dynamics and the actual fuel injected into the cylinder. A plurality of engine parameters are sensed, including cylinder air charge. An initial base desired fuel mass is determined based on the plurality of engine parameters. An initial transient fuel mass is also determined based on prior injection history for that cylinder. A desired injected fuel mass to be delivered to the cylinder is determined based on the initial base desired fuel mass and the initial transient fuel mass. These same calculations are then used to compensate for changes to the base desired fuel mass while the fuel injection is in progress, resulting in an updated desired injected fuel mass. Finally, the injection history for that cylinder is updated to account for the actual desired fuel mass delivered to the cylinder.

  • Patent number: 5735249
    Abstract: A method and system for controlling fuel delivery to an individual cylinder of an internal combustion engine during engine cranking compensates for fuel transport dynamics and the actual fuel injected into the cylinder. A plurality of engine parameters are sensed, including engine temperature, inducted air mass per cylinder and number of engine intake events since cranking. A temperature of the engine stored at key-off is determined. A new puddle mass estimate for the cylinder is determined based on the decay ratio of the new puddle mass estimate to the prior puddle mass estimate stored before key-off utilizing the temperature of the engine stored at key-off. A desired fuel mass to be injected into the cylinder is then determined based on the new puddle mass estimate and the plurality of engine parameters.
