Title: Organic light-emitting display device
Inventor: YONGBAEK LEE
IPC: H01L51/52
Filed: 2018-11-29
Abstract: An organic light emitting display device (OLED) has a bank BN defining pixels. A light stopper LS is inserted into a hollow portion BH (such as a recess cavity or hole) in the bank BN between neighbouring pixels. The light stopper LS may have black carbon, dye, resin, spray, enamel, graphite powder or gravure ink, and may minimise colour mixing defects by absorbing light and preventing light leakage to pixels of a different colour, for example in displays with high resolution, high pixels per inch (PPI). Regions of an organic compound layer OL on the bank BN may be separated by the light stopper LS, preventing leakage current. The light stopper LS may be surrounded by a barrier of inorganic material, such as silicon oxide or silicon nitride film (SiOx, NiOx), to prevent the organic compound layer OL being deteriorated by out-gas from a pigment forming the light stopper LS.

Title: Methods and devices for detecting denial of service attacks in secure interactions
Inventor: DRAGAN GREBOVICH
IPC: G06Q20/02
Filed: 2019-01-17
Abstract: Entities 105,110 that desire to enter in to a secure interaction may use a trusted third party 120 to facilitate the transaction (e.g. by a private key and X.509 certificate at a Certificate Authority, CA). The invention determines whether a transaction request from a first entity is attempting a denial of service attack or is issuing a legitimate request and facilitates a blockchain operation upon satisfaction of a condition. A nominal fee may be charged to one or more of the entities and requests of entities that have not paid the fee are ignored to prevent denial of service (DoS) attacks. An example embodiment is directed to a method of preventing a DoS attack on a network that includes receiving a request from an entity to initiate a blockchain operation on behalf of a first entity and a second entity; generating, in response to receiving the request, a prompt including at least one condition that is associated with the blockchain operation; sending a first message that includes the prompt to the first entity; and receiving a second message that includes an indication of whether the at least on condition has been satisfied or is authorized to be satisfied.

Abstract: A fence panel comprises stiles and rails wherein one of the rails comprises a friction fit aperture for retaining a portion of a stile, at least one stile has an end portion with a cross section to allow insertion in the aperture without being abraded, i.e. being a clearance fit in the aperture, and the stile end portion transitions by means of a shoulder to a central portion of the stile having a larger cross section than the end portion and the largest which can be readily inserted into the friction fit aperture, the shoulder being configured to engage the friction fit aperture via an interference fit to retain the stile in the aperture. The fence panel is constructible by means of a press fit operation of the stiles into rails such that the panel is more corrosion resistant and more adaptable in terms of shape than known fence panels. The stiles and rails are preferably of tubular construction. The stiles are required to possess a shoulder of dimensions such that they engage a friction fit aperture in at least one rail, the shoulder provides a defined point of contact and engagement thus requiring less force in construction, less damage due to abrasion and greater adaptability of the end structure such as to provide fence panels capable of providing vertical stiles and slanted rails so as to accommodate a slope when installed.

Title: Asset processing method and system for converting an asset as a digital asset
Inventor: JIE BAI
IPC: G06Q50/18
Filed: 2021-06-16
Abstract: An asset processing method for converting an asset into a digital asset. A spin-off digital asset processing smart contract based on a blockchain network is pre-deployed. The smart contract is configured to perform the following steps. Attribute data of the asset including time data and right data is determined and from this an attribute data subset representing a use condition of the asset is determined. The attribute data subset is bound to asset disposal right data to generate a corresponding spin-off digital asset. The spin-off digital asset is signed with a digital signature and published to a blockchain network transaction platform to perform an online transaction based on the spin-off digital asset. The spin-off digital asset is further split or divided into share digital assets. This helps change an asset transacted in a low frequency into an asset that can be transacted in a high frequency, thus improving liquidity of the asset. The asset can be tangible or intangible.
