Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, embodiments and a method. The method includes iteratively providing messages to each Node Processor. Each Node Processor represents a node of a group of nodes. The iteratively providing of the messages comprises providing first messages. Each first message includes a cost associated with a path of nodes visited by each first message. A selected path is obtained from each node having a lowest cost of a group of common endpoint costs for paths having common endpoints. A next group of messages includes the selected path. The iteratively providing of the messages results in selected paths. Also, the method include determining a target path from a remaining path. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A method includes receiving, at an access point, an access request from a first device after an expiration of a first passcode. The access request is encrypted based on the first passcode. The method includes making a determination by the access point before an expiration of a usage time of a first passcode usage list that an identifier of the first device is included in the first passcode usage list. The method also includes, in response to making the determination, generating, at the access point, data representing a second passcode by encrypting the second passcode using the first passcode; and sending the data representing the second passcode from the access point to the first device.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining a first image of a random distribution of particles overlaying an encoded region of an object identification tag, wherein the first image is obtained according to a first image capture configuration comprising a first image capture angle. The first image is associated with a decoded message determined according to the encoded region resulting in an association between the object identification tag and the first reflection pattern. A second image of the random distribution of particles is obtained according to a second image capture configuration including a second image capture angle, and an authenticity of the object identification tag is determined according to the association, the first image, and the second image. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, applying a setting voltage across first and second electrodes, wherein a nanowire with a first electrical resistance is electrically connected between the first and second electrodes, wherein the applying of the setting voltage causes a migration of ions from the first and/or second electrodes to a surface of the nanowire, and wherein the migration of ions effectuates a reduction of electrical resistance of the nanowire from the first electrical resistance to a second electrical resistance that is lower than the first electrical resistance; and applying a reading voltage across the pair of electrodes, wherein the reading voltage is less than the setting voltage, and wherein the reading voltage is sufficiently small such that the applying of the reading voltage causes no more than an insignificant change of the electrical resistance of the nanowire from the second electrical resistance. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: In one example, a processing system may identify a type of data contained in a first dataset that is to be stored in a storage array, wherein the storage array comprises a plurality of storage zones, and wherein the plurality of storage zones includes at least two different types of storage technologies. The processing system may generate a metadata file for the first dataset that contains self-describing information for the first dataset, wherein the metadata file is generated based on the type of the data, and wherein the self-describing information defines a manner, a time, and a location for storing the first dataset. The processing system may send the first dataset to a first storage zone of the plurality of storage zones, wherein the self-describing information includes an instruction to send the first dataset to the first storage zone for at least a defined period of time.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for initiating a medicine control action are disclosed. For example, the method implemented via a processor receives at least one picture, the at least one picture comprising an image of one or more pills and a respective prescription bottle of each one of the one or more pills, determines the medicine control action is required in response to the receiving the at least one picture, establishes a data connection with an endpoint device in response to the determining, and initiates the medicine control action over the data connection to the endpoint device.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method comprising: applying to a substrate a first two-dimensional layer; and applying to the first two-dimensional layer a second two-dimensional layer, wherein the first two-dimensional layer and the second two-dimensional layer form a bi-layer element, wherein the bi-layer element has an axis, wherein there is an initial electrical resistance across the bi-layer element along the axis, and wherein a first change to the substrate results in a second change to the bi-layer element such that the initial electrical resistance is replaced by a lower electrical resistance. Other embodiments are disclosed.
