Methods and systems for producing an encoded information signal having attenuated low frequency spectral components and a substantially constant average energy. An M bit code word is produced for each N bits of an information signal according to the following conditions: (a) each code word includes an equal number of logic zero bits and logic one bits; (b) each code word includes no more than two consecutive identical bits; and (c) M is greater than N. For example, M equals eight and N equals four. Such an encoded information signal is especially useful for generating a magnetic field signal usable for locating an underground object. This is in part because information sidebands of the magnetic field signal to have desired spectral characteristics that are useful in environments that often include harmonically derived interference signals at regular 50 Hz (±0.1 Hz) or 60 Hz (±0.1 Hz) intervals caused by power lines.

In embodiments of the invention, selected aspects of a process' call stacks are hashed, and the hash is used to capture the execution state of the process in a concise form and with minimal impact on the performance of the process and with no modification to the process code. The hash allows vendors and developers to classify failures in order to associate them with their known root causes to support rapid customer feedback and to maximize efficiency of correction. Further, the hash provides a metric usable to prioritize diagnosis of failures. In an embodiment of the invention, the identities of modules on the call stack are hashed in combination with some but not all offset information to minimize the affect of patches and minor changes to the code, and improve the ability to discriminate different execution paths.

The invention provides an internet-of-things tampering invasion detection method in combination with abnormal monitoring. Aiming at a periodic environment monitoring network, the technical problem that the real perception data is tampered by malicious node and the credibility of the data is damaged is solved. The method comprises a local abnormal monitoring step, a neighbor invasion detection step and a global invasion detection step. The space-time relativity of the data in the network is considered, and mutual supervision is performed by using the openness of a channel usable for a node and a neighbor node, so invasion detection between neighbors is realized, and the space relativity is detected by using the global invasion detection with a suspicious abnormal event node as the center; by using the result, on one hand, the monitoring and the positioning of the abnormal event are realized, and on the other hand, the invasion node close to the abnormal event can be reversely detected.
