| 1st Invent: | Jiang Xiao (Wuhan, ) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=3 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | The present invention relates to a graphic-blockchain-orientated sharding storage apparatus, at least comprising a first sharding module and a second sharding module, wherein the first sharding module shards nodes having different resource capacity levels based on ledger data organized using a DAG structure, and the second sharding module assigns transactions to the shards matching with execution difficulty levels of the transactions, so that each said transaction is processed and stored in the shard corresponding thereto. The present invention incorporates the sharding technology into a graphic blockchain to provide a graphic-blockchain-orientated sharding storage method, so as to reduce pressure in terms of data storage and transaction processing on nodes of the graphic blockchain system. In addition, nodes, transactions, and data are dynamically divided according to resource heterogeneity among nodes, so as to further enhance performance of the graphic blockchain system while achieving efficient use of resources. |

| Counsel: | Firm: Sheridan Ross P.C. |
| 1st Invent: | Douglas Max Grover (Rigby, ID) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=2 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A watermark is generated. The generated watermark is specific to an individual owner of a media. The media may be any type of electronic media, such as, an image, a document, a movie, an audio file, a software application, and/or the like. The watermark is inserted into the media. The watermark in the media is changed when ownership of the media is changed. For example, as the media is sold to a new owner, the new owner''s watermark is added to the media so that a chain of title can be verified directly from the media. In addition, the chain of title may also be verified via a blockchain. |

| Counsel: | Firm: American Patent Agency PC |
| 1st Invent: | Jieyi Long (Santa Clara, CA) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=1 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A tree-of-thought (ToT) system is presented that improves problem-solving capabilities of machine learning models, such as auto-regressive large language models (LLMs). The TOT system can solve complex reasoning tasks through trial and error. In this process, the system explores the solution space through a tree-like thought process, allowing for backtracking when necessary. The system augments an LLM with additional modules including a prompter agent, a checker module, a memory module, and a ToT controller. These modules engage in a multi-round conversation with the LLM. The memory module records the conversation and state history of the problem-solving process, which allows the system to backtrack to the previous steps of the thought-process and explore other solution paths. This new system can be applied to a blockchain and/or a distributed computing system. |

| 1st Invent: | Hao Xu (Anhui, ) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=1 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | The present invention relates to a blockchain method relating to geometric objects, a polygon storage method, an electronic device and a computer-readable storage medium. The blockchain token includes geometric data, and the geometric tokens are circulated through transfer, split, and merge. When geometric objects are of polygons representing the lands specified by the geographic location information, it is a suitable as blockchain for recording the transfer of land rights and interests. Except for the token representing the initial geometric objects, if the blockchain system limits all geometric objects in the blockchain to those generated by other tokens through transfers, splits or mergers, each polygon in an unspent token in the blockchain is unique and exclusive. If the initial polygon of the blockchain is one that represents the entire surface of the earth, the blockchain system can be used to record land circulation of the entire world. |

A method for visualizing operational interactions of microservices may include: (1) calling, by a source microservice, a target microservice with a request, both the source microservice and the target microservice being in a plurality of microservices; (2) logging, by the source microservice, an event; (3) recording, by a blockchain building program, the event to a blockchain as a table and as an index; (4) receiving, by a microservices tracing computer program, the request; (5) processing, by the target microservice, the request with a tracer; (6) returning, by the target microservice, a microservice identity for the target microservice with requested data; (7) logging, by the microservices tracing computer program, the requested data using the tracer; and (8) generating, by the microservices tracing computer program, a visualization of microservice interactions from the requested data. |

| Abstract: 2000 char max | Method of verifying data communication integrity in an aircraft which has first and second data generating and sending entities. Data generated at the first entity is sent to the second entity as messages via a number of intermediate entities. The data communication is a blockchain with blocks, each being added to the blockchain by one of the entities and including a cryptographic hash representative of the prior block, thus linking the blocks. The method includes: a) logging a message subgroup and cryptographic hash at one or more of the first, second and intermediate entities; b) collecting message logs from each entity for verification; c) comparing messages sent by the first entity and messages received by the second entity; and d) if not all messages have arrived at said second entity, comparing message logs of intermediate entity(ies) with the message log of the first entity to identify where loss occurred. |
