Abstract: A computer implemented method for operating a wiper system of a sensor enclosure. The wiper system can be configured to receive a camera operating information from one or more cameras. The one or more cameras can be determined to be in an exposure mode based on the camera operating information. A first speed of one or more wipers can be adjusted such that the one or more wipers are not in field of views of the one or more cameras while the one or more cameras are in the exposure mode.

Abstract: System and method for automatic remediation for a distributed file system uses a file system (FS) remediation module running in a cluster management server and FS remediation agents running in a cluster of host computers. The FS remediation module monitors the cluster of host computers for related events. When a first file system service (FSS)-impacting event is detected, a cluster-level remediation action is executed at the cluster management server by the FS remediation module in response to the detected first FSS-impacting event. When a second FSS-impacting event is detected, a host-level remediation action is executed at one or more of the host computers in the cluster by the FS remediation agents in response to the detected second FSS-impacting event.

Abstract: An access control system includes a processor configured to provide a trusted execution environment isolated from a rich execution environment. A rich OS operates in the rich execution environment while a trusted OS operates in the trusted execution environment. A plurality of protected data files are stored in non-volatile memory. When a process requests access to a protected data file, the computer system can permit the requesting process to access the requested data file only if a validated application token is present that corresponds to the requesting process. An application token is generated for the associated application by: detecting initiation of a first process associated with the associated application; determining that a valid user code is available within the trusted execution environment; and generating the application token using the valid user code upon determining that the valid user code is available within the trusted execution environment.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a computer-implemented system and method for generating and searching a database containing all of the potential substructures (e.g., metabolites) of a chosen complex molecule based on minimum cleavable units (MCUs) of the chosen complex molecule, wherein each record in the generated database suitably defines the molecular weight and physical arrangement of each substructure. Embodiments of the invention also provide a user interface and a search engine for searching the database based on a query molecular weight (or query molecular weight range) to identify all of the substructures having a total molecular weight matching the query molecular weight or range. Embodiments of the invention are also capable of transmitting to a display device operated by an end user a description and/or a graphical representation of every identified substructure of the chosen complex molecule.

Abstract: The front of a rack-mounted 2RU (Rack Unit) chassis includes bays that receive replaceable components, such as storage drives. Two rear slots of such chassis may each receive 1RU servers that couple to a chassis midplane via interposers. Administration of such 2RU chassis is simplified when a 1 RU server can be installed identically in the top or bottom chassis slot. Embodiments provide this capability while avoiding locating interposers along the center of the midplane. A lower guide routes a floating interposer of the server to lower midplane connectors as the server is inserted in the lower slot. An upper guide routes the floating interposer to upper midplane connectors as the server is inserted in the upper slot. The floating interposer moves up and down based vertical travel of guidewheels that protrude from the server and are routed by the guides as the server is inserted in a slot.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention avoid the processing problems associated with using conventional computer systems for identifying and characterizing all of the substructures (e.g., metabolites) of large complex molecules by using a defined minimum cleavable unit (MCU) and an MCU graph for a chosen molecule, as well as a “cut vertex” in the MCU graph for the chosen molecule. The system splits the MCU graph of the chosen molecule at the specified cut vertex to produce two separate MCU graph components (i.e., a first MCU subgraph and a second MCU subgraph) of the chosen molecule, and generates and traverses a first line graph component and a second line graph component, respectively, for the two MCU subgraph components with a graph traversing algorithm to generate and store in memory a first database of substructures and molecular weights for the first component, and a second database of substructures and molecular weights for the second line graph component.

Abstract: An access control system includes a processor configured to provide a trusted execution environment isolated from a rich execution environment. A rich OS operates in the rich execution environment while a trusted OS operates in the trusted execution environment. An access monitoring module operates within the kernel of the rich OS and a trusted application operates in the trusted OS. The access monitoring module intercepts file requests directed at the file systems of the rich OS, and forwards the file requests to the trusted application. The trusted application then evaluates whether the file request is permitted and provides the access monitoring module with a response. The access monitoring module forwards the request to the file system only if the trusted application approves the request.

Abstract: Method, device and computer program product for providing quarantined workspaces. A virtualization application operates on a host to simulate a virtual guest. A management application operates within the virtual guest. The management application controls transmission between guest applications and locations external to the virtual guest. The management application stores encryption keys inaccessible to the host. The management application intercepts attempted transmissions from guest applications to locations outside the virtual guest. Secure data files are identified in the attempted transmissions and encrypted before leaving the virtual guest using the encryption keys. The management application also prevents any unencrypted data from being provided to non-kernel host processes that have not been previously identified as permitted host processes while allowing unencrypted data transmission from the non-kernel host processes to any of the guest application processes.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing domain adaptation include collecting a labeled source image having a view of an object. Viewpoints of the object in the source image are synthesized to generate view augmented source images. Photometrics of each of the viewpoints of the object are adjusted to generate lighting and view augmented source images. Features are extracted from each of the lighting and view augmented source images with a first feature extractor and from captured images captured by an image capture device with a second feature extractor. The extracted features are classified using domain adaptation with domain adversarial learning between extracted features of the captured images and extracted features of the lighting and view augmented source images. Labeled target images are displayed corresponding to each of the captured images including labels corresponding to classifications of the extracted features of the captured images.
