Title: Encoding message headers using an in-memory indexing table
Inventor: FABLET YOUENN
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 2013-01-28
Abstract: Message headers (of eg. HTTP packets) are compressed using an indexing table which dynamically associates header values with respective coding indexes. A dictionary is constructed and updated according to new headers, and differential delta coding encodes only the difference between consecutive headers (eg. those sharing a common prefix) to exploit redundancy. Different representation codings (literal, delta or full reference) or indexings (none, incremental or substitution) are selected for low, medium and high table occupancy levels respectively. Incremental indexing is generally used until a maximum table size is reached, whereupon substitution indexing is employed based on a novelty criterion or the least recently used entries.

Title: Process control software security architecture based on least privileges
Inventor: Neitzel Lee Allen
IPC: G06F21/62
Filed: 2015-07-16
Abstract: A process control system software security architecture, that is effective at preventing zero-day or other types of malware attacks, can implement the use of least privileges when executing the applications and services run within a computer device. A computer device uses custom accounts 310 to assure that each service process 312 has the least set of privileges that are needed for implementing its function regardless of the privileges associated with the calling application or user, such that the custom service accounts do not have interactive logon privileges. Devices are also provided for particular services to, for example, not have the privilege to write to the local memory of a storage unit or access a communications port. Service processes can be separated from desktop applications that run on behalf of a logged-on user by partitioning the global namespace of the software system into service namespaces and logged-on user namespaces, and by strictly controlling communications between the applications and services in these different namespaces using inter-process communications.
