摘要： A mechanism for allowing a user to prove their identity on touch-based devices employing the use of a touch surface in firmware-controlled environments is discussed. The user may prove his or her identity by entering a series of strokes on the touch-based device to form a word or image. Characteristics of the entered strokes such as stroke order and stroke direction are compared to stored stroke characteristics that were gathered from a drawing of the same word or image during a user enrollment process. If the stroke characteristics comparison is acceptable, the user identity is verified.

摘要： A method for performing a quick boot and a general boot at a basic input output system (BIOS) stage is described. A computer is powered on. An embedded controller firmware or a BIOS determines whether a quick boot key is pressed. If the quick boot key is not pressed, a boot flag is changed from Quick Boot to General Boot. If the quick boot key is pressed, the BIOS determines whether the boot flag is set to Quick Boot. If it is determined that the boot flag is set to Quick Boot, an initialization of drivers preset by the quick boot is performed, and uninitialized drivers are initialized at a stage when an operating system is started. If it is determined that the boot flag is set to General Boot, an initialization of all drivers is performed.

摘要： An LUN/LBA interface is utilized to obtain the benefits of a content addressed storage (CAS) interface. Reference data is manipulated in a manner similar to a CAS system, where an object ID (OID) table is used to maintain OIDs generated for hashed LBAs. A first tier logic block is used to provide a LUN/LBA storage interface to application programs and to facilitate the writing of reference data. A second tier logic block hashes the content of reference data to be written and stores the OID generated to the first OID table. A third tier logic block facilitates writing the reference data to an LUN and to verify the accuracy of reference data to be read from the LUN. Reference data may be written to a storage area in accordance with a write-once, write-many, or write-many with versioning policy.

摘要： A storage system and method for prestaging data in a cache based on relative changes in the frequency of data access and relative changes in the effectiveness of previous prestage operations. The relative changes in the frequency of data access are determined by storing statistics of data access to all regions in the system and comparing recent access statistics to the stored data. Access statistics include data location, I/O size and access frequency. The relative changes in the effectiveness of previous prestage operations are detected by recording the number of previous prestaging operations for a region, recording the number of I/O requests for data that has been prestaged, and dividing the number of I/O requests for previously prestaged data in a region during a time period by the number of previous prestage operations for the region during the same time.

摘要： A spoon-shaped skin biopsy instrument is used in the removal of superficial skin samples and skin abnormalities for subsequent laboratory analysis. The spoon-shaped skin biopsy instrument is comprised of a pair of spoon-shaped cutting edges, which surround the desired skin sample, a crossed-members apparatus with finger loops, and a pivot point that connects the crossed members. This present invention maximizes surgical efficiency and handling and minimizes operation time.
