Title: Labeling computing objects for improved threat detection
Inventor: ANDREW J THOMAS
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2015-09-14
Abstract: A method of threat detection in a network of computer endpoints includes identifying an action on an endpoint, expressing the action as a normalized action independent of a hardware and software platform of the endpoint, creating an observation for the normalized action using a schema which organizes the observation into a first identifier of an object associated with the action, a second identifier of the normalized action, and one or more descriptors that characterize the observation with information selected for relevance to threat detection, collecting a plurality of said observations and a relationship among the observations, with one of said observations including a description of an object with greater granularity than provided by the endpoint hardware and software platform, the greater granularity including at least one attribute of the object provided by a source other than the hardware and software platform, and applying a rule to identify a reportable event based on the plural observations and the relationship.

Title: Pump cooling systems
Inventor: MICHAEL HENRY NORTH
IPC: F04D29/58
Filed: 2017-10-05
Abstract: A pump cooling system 12 comprising (i) a cooling element 24 with cooling fluid circulating through internal passages 26 thereof fitted to a pump housing 14, and (ii) a cooling control mechanism providing a gap 46 between the cooling element and the pump housing below a preset operating temperature, in order to interrupt heat dissipation from the housing. Thus overcooling of the pump at low loads is avoided without having to stop the flow of coolant in the cooling circuit, which in turn prevents calcification therein. The pump also reaches its normal operating temperature faster, then the gap in the heat conducting path between the cooling plates and the pump housing is closed to provide cooling. The gap may be opened / closed in various ways, such as (a) via hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders (278, fig. 9) or electromagnets (178, fig. 8), (b) by pressurising / evacuating gas into / from a sealed chamber 50 or by withdrawing / filling a liquid (557, fig. 14) therefrom / thereinto, (c) by interposing a suitably sized contracting / expanding heat conducting body (330, fig. 10) between the pump casing and the cooling element(s).

The mobility anchor may change a communication path which includes the first modem to one which includes the second modem if the first becomes inactive. The multipath proxy may use Multipath Transmission Control Protocol MPTCP. The vehicle may be a train or bus and the end node may be a mobile device belonging to a passenger. The fixed network may operate in the 60 GHz or mm-wave band using directional beams.

Title: Scheduling messages
Inventor: RICHARD LUKE SOUTHWELL OSBORNE
IPC: G06F15/173
Filed: 2018-12-21
Abstract: A multi-processor computer system exchanges messages between processors. To schedule the message exchanges, the total amount of message data to be sent and received by each processor is calculated. The processor with the most data to be sent and received is selected. The processor may also be selected based on the number of messages and the size of individual messages. A message to be sent or received by that processor is selected. The largest message may be selected, and multi-cast messages may be given priority. The message is allocated to a time slot where the sending processor and the receiving processor are not sending or receiving other messages. This may be the earliest such time. The amount of data in the message is deducted from the amount of message data for the sending and receiving processors. The process is then repeated with the outstanding amount of data until all the messages have been scheduled. The schedule may be created at compile time.

Title: Downlighter
Inventor: Darren Casey
IPC: F21V25/12
Filed: 2020-02-21
Abstract: A downlighter assembly 10 comprises a mounting plate 12 for locating within an aperture 18 in a ceiling panel 16 and a lamp support 30 for carrying a lamp unit 32. The lamp support 30 is tiltable relative to the mounting plate 12. A rigid fire hood 36 extends upwardly around the lamp support 30 and extends laterally around the lamp support 30 and has an aperture 44 on one side sized to accommodate the lamp support 30 when tilted. At least part of the fire hood 36 is lined with an intumescent material 48, 50. The aperture 44 allows the lamp assembly 32 to tilt outwardly, thus allowing the light output of the downlighter to be directed in a desired direction other that directly downwards. An externally projecting spring-loaded element 52 on the outside of the fire hood 36 opposite its aperture 44 retains the hood 36 within the mounting aperture 18 should the fire hood 36 descend during a fire. Thus the mounting aperture 18 remains substantially closed thus hindering passage of flames into the void above the ceiling panel.
