20150034013 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FEEDING AN ANIMAL A CONSUMABLE FEED PRODUCT AND VEGETATION FROM A CONTAINER - Consumable feed products and vegetation are delivered to animals using a single container in which the container holds the feed product and is used to deliver the feed and which includes ungerminated seeds embedded in the container body. The seeds are caused to germinate and produce vegetation from the container body, and the germinated seeds and/or vegetation is fed to the animal. Multiple containers may be used simultaneously so that while the consumable feed product from one container is used to feed an animal, another container may be used to grow vegetation or deliver vegetation to the animal. Confined birds such as poultry and chicks may benefit from ingesting feed and vegetation produced from such containers. | 02-05-2015 |

20090063941 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR USING REDUNDANCY TO EXCHANGE DATA IN A MULTICAST OR ONE WAY ENVIRONMENT - A system for use in one-way communications takes data from a source and parses it into work units. The work units may have a fixed size. The data of the work units is given to a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) library. The RAID library applies parity to the data and produces a number of output streams. Each stream includes data from the work units and redundant data from the parity application. The streams are combined and sent over a network. The inverse parity is applied on the receiving side to recreate the data. The redundant data is used in place of any data having an error condition, such as being lost or corrupted. The data is reconstructed on the receiving end without the need to resend data. | 03-05-2009 |

20080304482 | Device and method for communicating with a legacy device, network or application - A translation device allows communication between two entities that are not compatible. The two entities can include a legacy entity that uses an address format not compatible with a newer entity. The translation device receives a packet for the legacy entity and converts its address to one that is compatible with the legacy entity. The translation device may use different processes to convert the address in accordance with messaging protocols, packet configuration or the destination address desired. Once the packet includes a compatible address, the device sends the packet to the legacy entity. | 12-11-2008 |

20090265715 | VEX - Virtual Extension Framework - Extensions to operating systems or software applications can be hosted in virtual environments to fault isolate the extension. A generic proxy extension invoked by a host process can coordinate the invocation of an appropriate extension in a virtual process that can provide the same support APIs as the host process. Furthermore, a user mode context can be provided to the extension in the virtual process through memory copying or page table modifications. In addition, the virtual process, especially a virtual operating system process running on a virtual machine, can be efficiently started by cloning a coherent state. A coherent state can be created when a virtual machine starts up, or when the computing device starts up and the appropriate parameters are observed and saved. Alternatively, the operating system can create a coherent state by believing there is an additional CPU during the boot process. | 10-22-2009 |

20120159577 | ANONYMOUS PRINCIPALS FOR POLICY LANGUAGES - Techniques to allow a security policy language to accommodate anonymous credentials are described. A policy statement in a security policy language can reference an anonymous credential. When the policy statement is evaluated to decide whether to grant access to a resource mediated by the policy statement, the anonymous credential is used. The policy language can be implemented to allow one anonymous credential to delegate access-granting rights to another anonymous credential. Furthermore, an anonymous credential can be re-randomized to avoid linkage between uses of the anonymous credential, which can compromise anonymity. | 06-21-2012 |
20130262852 | Range-Based Queries for Searchable Symmetric Encryption - Techniques enable range-based queries in searchable symmetric encryption (SSE) systems. A server device includes or provides access to a database that stores encrypted documents along with an encrypted index that maps bucketized terms (e.g., a term coupled with a value range associated with that term) to encrypted documents. Search is performed through a two-step process in which the client first sends a first search token to request the bucketization for a term, then sends one or more second search tokens each specifying a particular bucket in which to search for the term. In response to the second tokens, the server sends information corresponding to encrypted documents that satisfy the search. Embodiments further provide for incremental addition and deletion of particular values for a term, and rebucketization at the client when a rate of false positive search results exceeds a threshold. | 10-03-2013 |

20120078914 | SEARCHABLE SYMMETRIC ENCRYPTION WITH DYNAMIC UPDATING - A Searchable Symmetric Encryption (SSE) mechanism is described which allows efficient dynamic updating of encrypted index information. The encrypted index information includes pointer information that is encrypted using a malleable encryption scheme. The SSE mechanism updates the encrypted index information by modifying at least one instance of the pointer information without decrypting the pointer information, and thereby without revealing the nature of the changes being made. In one implementation, the SSE mechanism includes a main indexing structure and a deletion indexing structure. An updating operation involves patching applied to both the main indexing structure and deletion indexing structure. | 03-29-2012 |

20130259234 | ROLE-BASED DISTRIBUTED KEY MANAGEMENT - Implementations for providing role-based distributed key management (DKM) replication are described. A server node receives a request from a requester node to perform a DKM create or update function. The server node determines the role of the requester node based on a public key of the requester node. The server node determines whether the role of the requester node indicates that the requester node is authorized to request the DKM create or update function. If the requester node's role is authorized to request the DKM create or update function, then the server node performs the requested function. The DKM create or update function may involve a replication function. Public key and trust chains may be derived from physical cryptographic processors, such as TPMs. | 10-03-2013 |
