    Abstract: A product obsolescence forecast system comprises machine instructions stored in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium. A processor executes the machine instructions to access data items related to a first product and one or more second products designated as similar to the first product, the first product and each of the one or more second products belonging to a same class of products; extract data elements from the data items; reformat the data elements as analyzable data elements and store the analyzable data elements in an analyzable data structure; apply a probabilistic model to selected ones of the analyzable data elements to provide a forecast obsolescence date for the first product; and using the forecast obsolescence date, determine one or more impacts based on the forecast obsolescence date.

    Abstract: This disclosure generally relates to automated execution and evaluation of computer network training exercises, such as in a virtual machine environment. An example environment includes a control and monitoring system, an attack system, and a target system. The control and monitoring system initiates a training scenario to cause the attack system to engage in an attack against the target system. The target system then performs an action in response to the attack. Monitor information associated with the attack against the target system is collected by continuously monitoring the training scenario. The attack system is then capable of sending dynamic response data to the target system, wherein the dynamic response data is generated according to the collected monitor information to adapt the training scenario to the action performed by the target system. The control and monitoring system then generates an automated evaluation based upon the collected monitor information.

    Abstract: An example method includes, during execution of a software application in a computing system comprising a plurality of processing units, identifying platform-independent instructions that are configured to perform at least one computational task, wherein the plurality of processing units comprises a heterogeneous group, and wherein the platform-independent instructions have a format that is not specific to any particular processing unit in the plurality of processing units, determining one or more scheduling criteria that are associated with the platform-independent instructions, and selecting, from the heterogeneous group of processing units and based on the scheduling criteria, a processing unit to perform the at least one computational task. The example method further includes converting the platform-independent instructions into platform-dependent instructions, wherein the platform-dependent instructions have a format that is specific to the selected processing unit, and executing, by the selected processing unit, the platform-dependent instructions to perform the at least one computational task.

    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to techniques for internet group management protocol tunneling. This may be done by electing, by each of a plurality of multicast gateways in a subnet, a designated router in the subnet. The designated router sends internet group management protocol queries to at least one router in the subnet. The designated router further tunnels internet group management protocol reports.

    Abstract: A network defense system is described that provides network sensor infrastructure and a framework for managing and executing advanced cyber security algorithms specialized for detecting highly-distributed, stealth network attacks. In one example, a system includes a data collection and storage subsystem that provides a central repository to store network traffic data received from sensors positioned within geographically separate networks. Cyber defense algorithms analyze the network traffic data and detect centrally-controlled malware that is configured to perform distributed network attacks (“botnet attacks”) from devices within the geographically separate networks. A visualization and decision-making subsystem generates a user interface that presents an electronic map of geographic locations of source devices and target devices of the botnet attacks. The data collection and storage subsystem stores a manifest of parameters for the network traffic data to be analyzed by each of the cyber defense algorithms.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes a context aware scalable dynamic network whereby network information concerning network elements in an untrusted (Black) network are gathered by network sensors, stored at a network sensor collector, and sent to another network sensor collector in a trusted (Red) network through a one-way guard. At the Red network, the network information from the Black network may be combined with network information from one or more Red networks. The combined network information may then be used to visualize a cross-domain network topology of both Red and Black networks, and to implement network management functions.
