Abstract:
A dynamic multimedia fingerprinting system is provided. A user requests multimedia content from a Web cache server that verifies that the user is authorized to download the content. A custom fingerprint specific to the user is generated and dynamically inserted into the content as the content is delivered to the user. The custom fingerprint can be generated on the Web cache server or at the content provider's server. The system allows a content provider to specify where the custom fingerprint is inserted into the content or where the fingerprint is to replace a placeholder within the content.
Abstract:
As part of the design process it is required to design circuits in order to reduce their power consumption. This is typically done by enabling or disabling flip-flops (FFs), however, such change in the circuit requires certain verification. As sequential clock gating changes the state function it is necessary to perform a sequential equivalence checking (SEC) verification. Applying a full SEC may be runtime consuming and is not scalable for large designs. Methods to reduce the problem of verifying sequential clock gating by reducing the sequential problem into much smaller problem that can be easily solved is therefore shown.
Abstract:
A soft card provisioning application is instantiated on a device with wireless communications capabilities. A card number for a soft card desired to be provisioned on the device is obtained from a user of the device. An issuer identification number retrieved from the card number is communicated to a provisioning configuration server over an air interface. A provisioning issuer server network address is obtained from the provisioning configuration server based on the issuer identification number. Card issuer specific challenges are presented to the user, and the user's responses to the challenges are received. The challenge responses are communicated to the provisioning issuer server. Soft card image data and personalization data, where the personalization data includes personalized embossed and pre-printed data, are received from the provisioning issuer server over the air interface. The soft card is provisioned for use on the device based on the data received over the air interface.
Abstract:
A rotating component of a turbine engine is provided and includes a wheel having a face to which fluid flow is provided and a plurality of impeller vanes forming a plurality of grooves along which the fluid flow is directed from an outer to an inner diameter of the wheel face, at least one of the plurality of the impeller vanes including a radially inwardly facing vane surface formed to define a cutaway portion.
Abstract:
A system and method enables remote execution of a program, such as a debugger, using a remote management module. A packet daemon executing on the remote management module packetizes data received from a client and forwards it to a packet daemon executing on a computer, which receives the packet and forwards data contained therein to the program. Data from the program is packetized by the packet daemon executing on the computer and transmitted to the packet daemon executing on the remote management module, which forwards the data to a program specific daemon on the remote management module for forwarding to the client.
Abstract:
A circuit breaker closing actuator and a method of operation is provided. The closing actuator is disposed to communicate and receive signals from a trip unit. The trip unit includes a communications to transmit and receive data and signals from a remote location. The trip unit transmits a signal to the closing actuator in response to receiving a closing signal from the remote location. The closing actuator validates the signal and activates a driving circuit if the signal is validated. The driving circuit enables power to a solenoid that closes the circuit breaker.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer program products for interacting with ISO 14443-4 and MIFARE® applications on the same wireless smart device during a common transaction are disclosed. According to one aspect, the method includes detecting and communicating with an ISO 14443-4 application located on a wireless smart device that includes an ISO 14443-4 and a MIFARE® application to perform at least part of the common transaction. Termination of the ISO 14443-4 application is detected, and the MIFARE® application located on the wireless smart device is detected and communicated with for performing at least part of the common transaction.
Abstract:
According to one aspect of the subject matter described herein, a method for registering wireless smart devices for secure offline data transfer is provided. The method includes, for an application configured to execute on a wireless smart device and that requires access to information regarding an account that does not reside on the wireless smart device, register, at a server having access to the information regarding the account, a first wireless smart device has an account owner device (AOD) for operating in an online mode for obtaining the information regarding the account from the server and for operating in an offline mode for transferring the information regarding the account to at least one additional device via a secure offline data transfer using near field communications (NFC). The method further includes registering, at the server, at least one second wireless smart device as an account sharer device (ASD) for operating in an offline mode for receiving the information regarding the account from the first wireless smart device via the secure offline data transfer using NFC.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for electronically delivering a prepaid card to a mobile device are disclosed. According to one aspect, the method includes receiving, at a merchant server, purchase information related to the purchase of an electronic prepaid card. The method further includes receiving, from the merchant server, electronic prepaid card information derived from the purchase information. The method further includes establishing a communications link with a mobile device associated with address data included in the electronic prepaid card information. The method also includes provisioning the electronic prepaid card information on the mobile device via over the air (OTA) communications.
