20150269939 | SPEECH RECOGNITION IN A MOTOR VEHICLE - In a method for speech recognition in a motor vehicle, speech inputs from a user are received and at least one of them is supplied to a vehicle-internal onboard speech recognition system without raising a query with the user. The speech recognition system generates a first recognition result, which, however, is not necessarily always correct and thus it has often been necessary up to now to raise a query with the user or allow the user to make corrections. The method provides reliable speech recognition that distracts the user in the motor vehicle as little as possible from the traffic. To this end, a processing unit supplies all or part of the speech input also to a vehicle-external offboard speech recognition system, which transmits a second recognition result to the processing unit. Depending on the first and the second recognition results, the speech text is then determined. | 09-24-2015 |

The transformation is implemented in a transitory, managed risk implementation approach for data access migration. This approach will enable data agility and will move data storage closer to information storage, while supporting the rapid development of business capabilities. This approach will bridge the gaps between relational database/file based storage (less expressive) and object-semantic representation (more expressive). This process/method will connect information residing in legacy data structures such as relational database/file based storage on disk drives to instances populating an expressive object-semantic model in persistent grid based memory. It will also maintain a linkage between the original legacy data to the enhanced object-semantic data allowing for ongoing modernization and removing the need for point migrations. | 06-14-2012 |

20110153862 | Sender-Specific Counter-Based Anti-Replay for Multicast Traffic - Techniques are provided for more robust counter-based anti-replay protection with respect to packets sent between network devices. A network device receives packets sent over a network from another network device. Each packet contains a source identifier that identifies a device that is the source of the packet, a destination identifier that identifies a device that is the intended destination of the packet, a sender identifier that identifies a network device that encrypted and sent the packet and a sequence number associated with the packet. The network device stores data indicating source identifier, destination identifier, sender identifier and sequence number for packets received over time. The network device rejects a newly received packet when it is determined that the sequence number of the newly received packet is less than the last sequence number stored for a matching packet flow (same source identifier, destination identifier and sender identifier) and falls outside of the counter-based window with respect to the last sequence number stored for the matching packet flow. | 06-23-2011 |
20110182426 | Dynamic Group Creation for Managed Key Servers - A technique for dynamically creating and deleting groups to support secure group communication sessions is provided herein. A request for creation of a dynamic group that enables group members to participate in a secure group communication session is received by a network authentication device such as a key server. Creation of the dynamic group includes generating a lifetime attribute indicating when the dynamic group is to exist based on timing information provided in the request, along with security policies required for generating the keys, and generating a unique group ID associated with the dynamic group for distribution to the group members. The keys for the secure group communication session are supplied, along with security policies, in response to a request containing the unique group ID identifying the dynamic group. The dynamic group is deleted in response to determining from the lifetime attribute that the secure group communication session has expired. | 07-28-2011 |
20110296185 | Protection of Control Plane Traffic Against Replayed and Delayed Packet Attack - Techniques are provided for determining freshness of control messages in a network. At a first device that is to enter into a secure communication session with a second device, timestamp information and time window size information are sent to the second device in a control message during a first exchange between a first device and a second device. At the first device, timestamp information and time window size information are obtained from a control message received from the second device by the first device during the first exchange. At the first device, the freshness of a control message is tested based on the timestamp information of the control message during a second exchange and the time window size information received from the second device during the first exchange. | 12-01-2011 |

20110184929 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING SPI EXTENSIONS FOR CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - A virtual content repository (VCR) is a logical representation of one or more individual content repositories. The VCR uses a common Application Programming Interface (API) and a Service Provider Interface (SPI) to provide a single access point to one or more individual content repositories. The API describes how applications can interface with program logic and functionality provided by the content management system and the SPI describes how a content repository can be integrated into the VCR. A SPI adapter can be interposed between the at least one non-compliant repository in the VCR and the SPI. The SPI adapter can map a request to the non-compliant repository and provide content received from the non-compliant repository to originators of the requests. | 07-28-2011 |

20090081244 | Dry Formulation for Transcutaneous Immunization - A transcutaneous immunization system delivers antigen to immune cells through the skin, and induces an immune response in an animal or human. For example, skin-active adjuvant (e.g., an ADP-ribosylating exotoxin) can be used to induce an antigen-specific immune response (e.g., humoral and/or cellular effectors) after transcutaneous application of a dry formulation containing antigen and adjuvant to skin of the animal or human. The dry formulation may be a powder or a unit-dose patch. Use of adjuvant is not required if the antigen is sufficiently antigenic. Transcutaneous immunization may be induced with or without penetration enhancement | 03-26-2009 |

20160125296 | System and Method for Securing an Architectural Environment Against Crime and Minimizing Criminal Elements - A computer-implemented method is provided for analysing and designing a physical environment for discouraging criminal activity within the physical environment. The physical environment is assessed and risk factors are identified that make the physical environment vulnerable to criminal activity. In one embodiment, risks posed by the nature and location of the physical environment within a spatial footprint are calculated. Further, the physical environment is evaluated to identify physical elements of the environment that could make the structure vulnerable to criminal attacks. Risk scores assigned to all of these factors are then analyzed to generate a recommendation report for at least one of the physical elements. Deploying at least one of the recommendations in the report aids in improving a deterrent rating assigned to that physical element and subsequently integrity of the physical environment against criminal attacks. | 05-05-2016 |
