In an embodiment, an encryption system collects at least a decryption-threshold number of private-key shares from a secure store, where the private-key shares correspond to a public key generated in a first secure enclave as part of a secret key set, which also includes a first plural quantity of the private-key shares. The encryption system obtains an ephemeral-hardware-security-module-(eHSM)-encryption key by decrypting the collected private-key shares. The encryption system initializes, in a second secure enclave, a second instance of a first eHSM. The initialized second instance of the first eHSM is encrypted with the obtained eHSM-encryption key.

Abstract

Disclosed is a sectional door adapted to withstand high wind load and impact from flying debris. The door includes a glazing bead to secure glazing panels into frames formed by the rails and stiles of the door. The bead is connected with the frame by engagement between extensions on the bead and respective lips along the edges of the frame. The bead is pressed against the frame, causing the extension to elastically flex to allow the extensions to fit between the lips. The extensions are received in gaps formed by the lips to secure the bead in place on the frame. Force on the door cause by high winds is communicated from the glazing panel through the bead and to the frame. The door also includes reinforcements arranged along the rails to communicate forces, such as high wind load forces, from the frame to the edges of the doorway surrounding the door. The reinforcements include endcaps that increase stiffness of the rails to prevent the rails from buckling during severe weather events.

Abstract

A method of generating a multiplexed image (18) for printing that can be observed in a plurality of modes includes determining a finite shape (22) of a multiplexed palette (10) in a combined color space. The contrast of the multiplexed image (18) in each mode can be optimized by determining a maximum volume hyperrectangle (20) enclosed in the finite shape (22). Gamut mapping to this maximum volume hyperrectangle (20) allows for generation of a multiplexed image (18) that has a maximum contrast and is free from artifacts caused by an interdependency between the colors in each mode. Performing a dimensionality reduction using PCA allows for reducing the complexity of the optimization problem.
