Abstract: Within several applications the ability to localize an individual within an environment is beneficial. However, existing indoor localization approaches depend upon at least one of two assumptions. First, the subject(s) localization is achieved by localizing a wireless device carried by the subject and second, wireless fingerprints are established for the localization via a site survey being performed before a system can actually localize the subject(s). However, in many application scenarios, neither of the above two assumptions are true, namely that the user is not carrying an active wireless device or that the site has been surveyed. Accordingly, embodiments of the invention provide for subject localization by a dynamic calibration of wireless signals between a receiver and a transmitter, where neither the receiver or transmitter are associated with an electronic device carried or worn by the subject.

Abstract: An approach for protecting container image and runtime data from host access may be presented. Container systems have allowed for more efficient utilization of computing resources, removing the requirement of a hypervisor, and packaging all necessary dependencies within an application. Preventing host access to container image and runtime data can be advantageous for a multitude of reasons. The approach herein may include, flattening a plurality of root file system of a one or more container images into a single layer. The approach may also include generating a container base image for each of the one or more flattened root file system. The approach may include encrypting each of the generated container base images with the flattened root file system.
