Patent CA-2746587-A1 (CA)

IPC: G06F21/00
Filed: 2011-07-15
Abstract: Rather than defining roles in terms of those resources and/or actions pertaining to the resources that are permitted to subjects having that role, it has been found that by instead defining a role by negative permissions, i.e. those resources and/or actions related thereto that are not permitted to subjects in that role, the evolution of a system is more convenient to manage. In this way, the system is only required to track and update the denied resources for particular roles. It has also been recognized that by defining a role in terms of negative permissions, i.e. what subjects in that role cannot do, malicious users can be thwarted from creating false user accounts since selecting functions associated with the resources takes permissions away rather than adds them.

Title: Equilibrage complexe de piece mecanique en rotation
Inventor: BUENDIA JOSE
IPC: F15D1/06
Filed: 2009-07-28
Abstract: Les problèmes d'équilibrages sont des interactions d'efforts mécaniques engendrant des fluctuations d'électrons suivant des rapports stables et connus, déformations élastiques des matériaux et effets piézo électriques. Dans le métier de la mécanique traditionnelle qui se focalise dans la réalité sur une seule et même structure et une mesure, on oublie les autres fonctions de la même structure qui servent à plusieurs fonctions simultanées.  Les résultats sont surprenants de confort. Les essais montrent que le conducteur du véhicule n'a plus les vibrations des pneumatiques et découvre une conduite sans bruit, fluide et presque sans effort. En effet, toutes les contraintes d'oppositions mécaniques sont fortement atténuées, ce qui libère le volant, diminue les bruits et apporte un confort inattendu. Le ballon élastique exemple non exhaustif que constitue le pneumatique sautillant est totalement effacé dans ses alternances de mouvements incontrôlés et colle véritablement à la route. Il est bien évident que la conduite sous la pluie est excellente et que le freinage et la sécurité sont fortement augmentés. Le seuil de la fatigue est grandement repoussé. Des applications différentes relevant de problèmes complexes en mécanique ou en hydraulique sur les machines industrielles ou les moteurs peuvent par ce procédé trouver des solutions de fiabilité, et des fonctionnements plus stables. Cette nouvelle technique d'auto régulation mise en évidence par la nanotechnologie est un grand pas en avant sur des problèmes connus, restés sans solution véritable, ou n'étant vus que d'une manière statique, où un seul facteur était pris en compte.

Patent CA-2776127-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BRANSON MICHAEL J
IPC: G06F21/00
Filed: 2012-05-07
Abstract: A security mechanism in a database management system enforces processing restrictions stored as metadata to control how different pieces of a multi-nodal application are allowed to access database data to provide data security. The security mechanism preferably checks the data security restrictions for security violations when an execution unit attempts to access the data to insure the nodal conditions are appropriate for access. When the security mechanism determines there is a security violation by a query from an execution unit based on the security restrictions, the security mechanism may send, delay or retry to maintain data security. Nodal conditions herein include time restrictions and relationships with other columns, rows or pieces of information. For example, multiple processing units may be allowed to execute together, but the security mechanism would prohibit these processing units to access specific pieces of information at the same time through the use of metadata in the database.
