A method for maintaining state and event information for all of a user's devices associated in a common location using a blockchain where each block includes an event block and a device block within it, where each event and device block refers to an earlier block of the respective type, resulting in a blockchain-in-a-blockchain architecture. The device and event blocks store data regarding each device associated with a user and events related to the devices/user, respectively. Any time a new event occurs, or a device is registered or removed, a new set of blocks is created, where submissions regarding device changes or events can be made by any participant due to the decentralized and public nature of a blockchain. The result is a system where all data regarding a user's registered devices and events is kept in a common location in a manner that is auditable and verifiable.

Various embodiments provide management of virtual goods. In some embodiments, a gaming platform can be used to provide a secure ledger system for recording money transfer, play action, bets, analytics, gaming statistics, and the like, which are associated with virtual goods. Non-limiting examples of virtual goods comprise: characters; badges/icons; gameplay attributes; virtual money; cryptocurrencies; tokens; digital gifts; gameplay levels/add-ons; and prizes, among other examples. In some examples, gaming systems can directly interact with the distributed multi-ledger architecture for secure and transparent transactions which can also be accessed by auditors, tax authorities, partners, and/or other entities. Some examples may use private and/or public blockchains as part of the distributed multi-ledger gaming architecture. For instance, multiple distributed network nodes may be utilized to manage transaction records.

A method and system for providing interoperability for Rich Communications Suite/Systems (RCS) messaging with local and remote applications. If a target network device cannot directly receive RCS messages, electronic messages are modified on an RCS message application to include different types of electronic links to remote or local RCS interoperability applications. The local or remote RCS interoperability applications independently provides seamless, rich multi-media RCS functionality to the target network device when the electronic link is activated in the modified electronic message. The local or remote RCS interoperability applications provide two-way RCS message communications between target network devices without RCS functionality and target network devices with RCS functionality.

An example operation includes one or more of displaying, on a transport display, first data from a device detachably attached to a transport and displaying, on the transport display, second data from a device affixed to the transport. The second data is overlaid on the display proximate to the first data.

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.

The present disclosure describes transaction-enabling systems and methods. A system can include a facility including a core task including a customer relevant output and a controller. The controller may include a facility description circuit to interpret a plurality of historical facility parameter values and corresponding facility outcome values and a facility prediction circuit to operate an adaptive learning system, wherein the adaptive learning system is configured to train a facility production predictor in response to the historical facility parameter values and the corresponding outcome values. The facility description circuit also interprets a plurality of present state facility parameter values, wherein the trained facility production predictor determines a customer contact indicator in response to the plurality of present state facility parameter values and a customer notification circuit provides a notification to a customer in response.

A process for centralized user file encapsulation, encryption, notarization and verification using a blockchain and a system that certifies data in a proprietary “capsule” file format, with tamper-proof blockchain are disclosed. By utilizing a hybridization of both cloud and blockchain storage mechanisms, the present invention allows for the performant and cost-effective certification of large amounts of data. Furthermore, the generation of the capsule allows for users to store both the data payload and its digital notarization. The system then allows for users to share the capsule with others (by way of permissions enforced by the notary system) and upload it for verification of authenticity at a later point in time.

A system for an artificial intelligence synchronized distributed ledger. The system includes a computing device containing a receiving module, the receiving module designed and configured to receive an input from a remote device, parse the input to identify protected and non-protected data contained within the input, transform the protected data into a digitally signed assertion and convert the non-protected into an encrypted datastore. The computing device containing a processing module, the processing module designed and configured to receive the digitally signed assertion from the receiving module, insert the digitally signed assertion into an immutable sequential data structure, receive the encrypted datastore, retrieve at least an input, generate a record utilizing the at least a retrieved input, and perform a first machine-learning process utilizing the at least a retrieved input.

Systems and methods for cryptographic key generation at a client and server are disclosed. The client has an array of PUF devices, and the server has an image that PUF. The server sends the client addresses of PUF devices to be measured, and retrieves previously stored responses corresponding to those addresses from its database. The client measures responses at the addresses. Each device hashes the resulting responses, and the server compares the hash received from the client to its own. If the hashes to not match, the server searches for a matching hash be perturbing the measured response bit stream until a match is achieved. The perturbed response bitstream, and the measured response at the client are then salted, and used for key generation.

Systems and methods for the generation and use of session keys supporting secure communications between a client and server device are disclosed. The client device has or receives a password, which it hashes a predetermined first number of times. The hashed password is sent as a message digest to a server. The server applies the hashed password to a an array of PUF devices, and receives a response bitstream which is stored. The client later hashes the password a second predetermined number of times, which is less than the first predetermined number, and this second message digest is sent to the server. The server continues to hash the second message digest, generate PUF responses, and compare the result to the initially stored responses. The number of hashes necessary to achieve a match is the session key.
