Abstract: Methods for composable user journeys for user authentication via an identity experience framework are performed by systems and apparatuses. Initiating a user authentication process for an application triggers application calls for dynamic invocation of a specific identity policy, required by the application, of a number of identity policies managed by a host of the identity experience framework. User interfaces defined by the identity policies are provided from the host to the application for interaction by the user and entry of identity information needed to authenticate the user according to specified verification providers. Identity claims and token requests are provided from the application to the host which then authenticates the identity claims via the verification providers and mints a token that includes the claims required by the application, according to the identity policy. The application consumes the token to complete the token request and allow the user access to the application.

Abstract: This disclosure describes particles and techniques for storing oligonucleotides that provide stable, long-term protection yet are also compostable. A core is coated with a layer of oligonucleotides and encapsulated under an outer layer of non-porous, hydrolyzed organosilicon disulfide. The hydrolyzed organosilicon disulfide protects the oligonucleotides from oxidative and thermal damage under typical storage conditions. One suitable organosilicon disulfide is bis(3-triethoxysilylpropyl) disulfide (BTSPD). The oligonucleotides may be retrieved by contacting the particles with a reducing agent that degrades the disulfide bonds in the outer layer. The disulfide bonds enable removal of the protective encapsulation without the use of dangerous chemicals such as hydrogen fluoride. Instead of retrieving the oligonucleotides, the particles may be disposed of in a composting environment. In an implementation, the oligonucleotides are artificially synthesized and encode digital information.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing reduced-latency data operations for data or storage in file systems. The file system implements a set of policies that indicate how data operations are performed. In operation, a request for access to storage of a file system to perform a data operation is received. The file system supports both a bitmap representation and a range-only representation of the storage. A bitmap representation of a region for performing the data operation is communicated because, for certain data operations, the file system operates based on communicating only bitmap representations while restricting access to range-only representations. The range-only representations are a compacted representation of storage of the file system. Based on the bitmap representation of the region, the storage of the file system is accessed. The bitmap representation of the region further includes a bitmap lock that restricts access to storage corresponding to the bitmap representation.

Suitable heuristics invocation orders may be produced efficiently and effectively using a genetic algorithm that is adapted to make a population of invocation orders, select parents, create offspring, and assess invocation order fitness, until the population converges on optimal orders. Invocation order fitness assessments may be based on actual performance or simulated performance.

Abstract: Reuse of branch information queue entries for multiple instances of predicted control instructions in captured loops in a processor, and related methods and computer-readable media. The processor establishes and updates a branch entry in a branch information queue (BIQ) circuit with branch information in response to a speculative prediction made for a predicted control instruction. The branch information is used for making and tracking flow path predictions for predicted control instructions as well as verifying such predictions against its resolution for possible misprediction recovery. The processor is configured to reuse the same branch entry in the BIQ circuit for each instance of the predicted control instruction. This conserves space in the BIQ circuit, which allows for a smaller sized BIQ circuit to be used thus conserving area and power consumption. The branch information for each instance of a predicted control instruction within a loop remains consistent.
