ACTION: Notice of inventions available
for licensing.
SUMMARY: The inventions listed below
are owned in whole or in part by the
U.S. Government, as represented by the
Secretary of Commerce. The U.S.
Government’s interest in these
inventions is available for licensing in
accordance with 35 U.S.C. 207 and 37
CFR part 404 to achieve expeditious
commercialization of results of
Federally funded research and
development.

Docket number and title for the
invention as indicated below.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NIST may
enter into a Cooperative Research and

with the licensee to perform further
research on the invention for purposes
of commercialization. The inventions
available for licensing are:
NIST Docket Number: 08–008.
Title: Solution-Processed Flexible
Titanium Dioxide Memory Devices.
Abstract: The invention provides a
method of processing a nonvolatile
memory device includes forming a first
electrode, depositing a layer of sol-gel
solution on the first electrode,
hydrolyzing the layer of sol-gel solution
to form a layer of variable electric
resistance material, and forming a
second electrode on the layer of variable
electric resistance material.
NIST Docket Number: 08–012.
Title: Low Cost Multi-Channel Data
Acquisition Systems.
Abstract: This invention is jointly
owned by the Department of Commerce
and the University of Maryland.
Embodiments of the invention provide
an inexpensive and fast pulse
characterization platform capable of real
time operation, suitable for acquisition
of single-photon data. Embodiments
include both a digital multi-channel
data acquisition instrument and an
analog pulse acquisition instrument
suitable for a wide range of applications
in physics laboratories. A Field
Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)
performs multi-channel acquisition in
real time, time stamps single events, and
determines if the events fit a
predetermined signature, which causes
the events to be categorized as a
coincidence. The indications of
coincidences are then communicated to
a host computer for further processing
as desired.
NIST Docket Number: 08–015.
Title: A Mechanism for the
Specification and Enforcement of
Arbitrary Attribute-Based Access
Control Policies.
Abstract: Protection of enterprise
resources in today’s access control
paradigm requires the deployment of a
multitude of access control mechanisms
implemented at both the operating
system and application levels. These
mechanisms come in a wide variety of
forms each with their individual

methods for authenticating users,
configuring security policies, computing
access control decisions, and enforcing
these policies. A characteristic of
dispersed heterogeneous access control
mechanisms is a lack of interoperability
that consequently results in a host of
identity and privilege management
issues. However, solving the
interoperability problem alone is not
sufficient in curing the problems of the
existing access control paradigm. While
there exists a diverse set of known
access control policies, only a small
subset of these policies is enforceable
through existing mechanisms. In
addition, policies independently
implemented within applications can
easily undermine one another as well as
those implemented at the operating
system level. To streamline identity and
privilege management operations and
provide comprehensive and flexible
security policy enforcement, a
standards-driven framework, called the
Policy Machine, for the specification
and enforcement of access control that
can be adopted by future versions of
operating systems and serve as a basis
for the development of truly secure
applications has been developed.
