A method includes transmitting data by a first interface card in a trusted domain. A second interface card in an untrusted domain receives the data. The second interface card stores the data in a first memory location of a plurality of first memory locations in the untrusted domain and verifies integrity of the data. The second interface card writes a result of the verifying in a second memory location of a plurality of second memory locations in the untrusted domain. The first interface card retrieves the result of the verifying from the second memory location of the plurality of second memory locations in the untrusted domain. The first interface card creates a table configured to identify and track a state of the second memory location of the plurality of second memory locations in the untrusted domain corresponding to the data received from the first interface card in the trusted domain.

Unidirectional gateway mediated multiplexing of concurrent data message streams

A method includes transmitting, by a first interface card in a trusted domain, data. A second interface card in an untrusted domain receives the data. The second interface card stores the data to a first memory location in the untrusted domain, and verifies integrity of the data. The second interface card writes a result of the verifying in a second memory location in the untrusted domain. The first interface card in the trusted domain retrieves the result of the verifying from the second memory location in the untrusted domain. The first interface card in the trusted domain determines if the data in the transmitting was received by the second interface card based on the result.

Unidirectional gateway mediated delivery of data messages

The present invention relates, in part, to systems for characterizing force (e.g., friction, and wear). In one embodiment, a tribometer allows for wear testing of samples in a high throughput manner. A counterface is used to apply force on the surface of the sample. A carousel provides for the rapid exchange of new for old counterfaces in the tribometer test head, thereby enabling the use of a new counterface for each new wear test without the need for operator interaction.

Computing platforms and methods for dynamic presentation of graphical and video content are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: provide, in a static browsing state, a static image associated with underlying video content; in response to an extended focus on the static image for a first threshold amount of time, expand a visual tile to a widescreen aspect ratio while remaining in the static browsing state; after a second threshold amount of time, initiate a dwell browsing state in which dwell tile content is provided in the expanded visual tile, while other content remains in the static browsing state; in response to a determination that the playback device supports a dwell video mode, play a video asset within the expanded visual tile; and in response to a determination that the playback device does not support the dwell video mode, provide an alternate non-video visual asset within the expanded visual tile.

System and method for dynamic presentation of graphical and video content

A method includes a processor in a trusted domain receiving a first request having a plurality of messages for a device in an untrusted domain. The processor assigns a memory location having data segments and status segments. The memory location is accessible by an untrusted side interface card. The processor transmits a first message to a first data segment. The processor receives a first value associated with the first message from a first status segment. The processor determines whether the first value indicates that the first message has been received and stores a first representation of a successful data transmission. The processor transmits a second message to a second data segment. The processor retrieves a second value from the second status segment. The processor determines whether the second value indicates that the second message has been received and stores a second representation of the successful data transmission.

The present invention relates, in part, to systems for characterizing force (e.g., friction, wear, and/or torque). In one embodiment, the system allows for wear testing of samples in a high throughput manner. In another embodiment, the system allows for torque sensing in a non-contact manner.

A system for transmitting ArchestrA information from a first network in a first security domain to a second network in a second security domain. A first stand-alone server within the first security domain retrieves information via the first network from a first ArchestrA Galaxy and/or from a first historian in the first security domain and forwards the retrieved information to a send server coupled to the first network. The send server forwards the received information received to a receive server via a one-way data link. The receive server receives the information from the send server and forwards the received information to a second stand-alone server via the second network. The second stand-alone server receives the information from the receive server and forwards the information to a second ArchestrA Galaxy and/or to a second historian in the second security domain.

Secure one-way interface for archestra data transfer

A system for transferring information from a first PI server coupled to a first network to a second PI server coupled to a second network. The system includes a source platform coupled to the first network and in communication with the first PI server, a receive platform coupled to the second network and in communication with the second PI server, and a one-way data link coupling the source platform to the receive platform. The source platform is configured to read transfer configuration information from the first PI server and to dynamically modify the transfer parameters based thereon. The receive platform is configured to, if there is changed database record configuration information, continually store a current predefined portion of the historical information in memory without transferring such information to the second PI server until a user, via a user interface, authorizes the release of such information to the second PI server.

One-way interface for PI to PI data transfer

A system for transmitting OPC information from a first network in a first security domain to a second network in a second security domain. A first stand-alone server within the first security domain retrieves information via the first network from a first OPC server in the first security domain and forwards the retrieved information to a send server coupled to the first network. The send server forwards the received information received to a receive server via a one-way data link. The receive server receives the information from the send server and forwards the received information to a second stand-alone server via the second network. The second stand-alone server receives the information from the receive server and forwards the information to one or more OPC clients in the second security domain.
