Additionally, when NTN communications resources are used, the system may identify one or more suitable departure times such that travel coincides with favorable NTN coverage across the route. Thus, the system accesses map and travel data, terrestrial network coverage maps, NTN coverage maps and schedules, …

Building A Self-Reinforcing Open-Hardware Engineering Ecosystem A Modular Systems Method Where Every New Invention Strengthens The Entire Portfolio, Michael Victor Caldwell Mr.

Defensive Publications Series

 Most inventions are developed as isolated systems. A different approach is possible: designing an interconnected engineering ecosystem where each invention is built from reusable modules, and every improvement to a shared module strengthens multiple systems across the portfolio.

This document describes a methodology for creating self-reinforcing open-hardware architectures through modular design, shared subsystems, cross-domain integration, and continuous refinement.

The goal is not to replace traditional engineering validation. Instead, this approach creates a structured pathway where concepts become easier to prototype, evaluate, improve, and adapt through shared engineering foundations.

Crc-Based Dynamic Te Metric Adjustment And Recovery Mechanism For Rsvp-Te Tunnels, Abhishek Garg, Jaiesh Thapar, Rajeev Anand

Defensive Publications Series

This disclosure describes a proactive traffic engineering recovery mechanism for Resource Reservation Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) tunnels based on physical-layer link degradation indicators, such as cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors. Existing RSVP-TE and transport control-plane mechanisms generally react only after hard failures, such as link-down events, loss of signal, Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) timeout, or RSVP signaling timeout. However, high-speed optical and packet networks may experience soft failures in which a link remains operationally up while packet corruption or error rates increase due to fiber degradation, dirty connectors, optic issues, or other physical-layer impairments. In such cases, traffic continues …

Focused Retention: Goal-Conditioned Switched Decay As An Active Anti-Decay Force In Agent Memory (Loci), Arko Sanyal

Defensive Publications Series

Memory systems decay passively: strength falls with time, lifted only by rehearsal. We propose a memory spectrum in which decay is goal-conditioned: while a commitment is open, the item decays with a very long half-life (it holds, though it is not frozen); the moment the commitment resolves, decay switches to fast and the trace collapses. Focus, on this account, is not slower forgetting but a regime switch controlled by the fate of a goal. The model contributes: (1) a switched-decay retention law; (2) a release taxonomy — fulfilled, re-clamped, relinquished, nullified, abandoned — in which rejection is a choice node, …

A Separate, Fast-Decaying Memory Spectrum For A System's Own Thoughts, With Reflection-Gated Crystallization (Loci), Arko Sanyal

Defensive Publications Series

Memory systems for interactive agents store observations — facts about the world and the user. We argue the system's own reasoning traces ("thoughts") require a structurally different store: a separate spectrum with its own much faster decay law, and a gated bridge to long-term memory that only a confirmed outcome can open. A thought's retention follows an exponential decay with a roughly 4-hour half-life; cold thoughts are pruned. A thought is crystallized into a durable fact only when a later, externally-produced outcome confirms it — unconfirmed reasoning is never allowed to become long-term "truth," which makes the gate an anti-hallucination …

Reflection-On-Action: Label-Free Learning From Behavioral Outcomes In Interactive Agents (Loci E+R), Arko Sanyal

Defensive Publications Series

Most systems that adapt to a user learn from labels: explicit ratings, reward signals, or annotated targets. We describe and evaluate a mechanism that learns from behavior alone, with no labels of any kind. The system acts, observes what the user does next, and updates its model in proportion to how surprising that behavior was — treating the user's own subsequent behavior as the only training signal. We call this reflection-on-action (e+r): act, then learn from the behavioral outcome. We formalize the label-free update (behavioral surprise as the sole learning signal, with the target always the externally produced behavior so …

Forecasting Affective State From Interaction Streams: A Closed Loop With Heat-Decay Memory, Label-Free Mood Estimation, And Trajectory-Based Crisis/Venting Separation (Loci R+E), Arko Sanyal

Defensive Publications Series

We ask whether a person's near-future affective state can be forecast from the interaction stream alone — no self-report, no labeled emotions. We describe a closed forecasting loop that converts an interaction stream into a bounded affect estimate and projects it forward. The loop decomposes interaction into parallel streams: a heat-decay salience stream (recurrence-weighted, exponentially decaying), an exact-value stream, a mood stream derived from reconstruction error against the person's own adaptive percentile band (arousal, valence, coherence — no labeled emotions), a reflection stream, and a forecast stream. On a held-out 24-hour criterion the loop reaches 74% mood-forecast accuracy versus 48% …
