    摘要: A system for providing persistent access control of protected content is disclosed. The method on a client system includes sending a first request for authentication of the client to a server system. Subsequently, the client is authenticated by the server. Next, a user on the client attempts to access a file comprising a trailer and content encrypted with an encrypting key. Then, a second request for access to the content is sent to the server by the client, wherein an identifier from the trailer is included in the second request. The identifier identifies the content or an access control policy of the content. The server determines that the second request is in accordance with an access control policy associated with the content, and grants access to the content. Lastly, the client accesses the content in accordance with the access control policy.

    摘要: The present invention provides a system, computer program product and a method for overlapping boundary data of an audio information track which includes ending data from a previous track and starting data from a succeeding track. By doing this, the ending data from a previous track and the beginning data from a succeeding track are available for the compression process. The compression program then manipulates the additional appended data in order to generate the compressed audio. Later, by severing the overlapping appended additional information before recombining the tracks, the resulting No-Pause CD audio stream is free from distortion and mismatch.

    摘要: A system for tracking usage of digital content on user devices. Electronic stores coupled to a network sell licenses to play digital content data to users. Content players, which receive from the network the licensed content data, are used to play the licensed content data. Additionally, a logging site that is coupled to the network tracks the playing of the content data. In particular, the logging site receives play information from the network, and the play information includes the number of times that the content data has been played by the associated content player. Also provided is a method for tracking usage of digital content on user devices. According to the method, a license to play digital content data is sold to a user, and the licensed content data is transmitted to a content player for the user. Further, information is transmitted to a logging site whenever the content data is played by the content player or copied from the content player to an external medium so that usage of the licensed content data can be tracked.

    摘要: A method of managing keys used by a digital content player on a computer system. According to the method, digital content data encrypted with a first encrypting key is decrypted using a first decrypting key, and re-encrypted using a second encrypting key. A second decrypting key is encrypted using a third encrypting key to produce an encrypted second decrypting key. In one preferred method, an encrypted first decrypting key that was encrypted using a fourth encrypting key is received, and the encrypted first decrypting key is decrypted using a fourth decrypting key to reproduce the first decrypting key. A digital content player for use on a computer system is also provided. The content player includes a decrypter that decrypts digital content data, which was encrypted with a first encrypting key, using a first decrypting key so as to produce the content data. An encrypter re-encrypts the content data using a second encrypting key and encrypts a second decrypting key using a third encrypting key. In one preferred content player, a receiver receives an encrypted first decrypting key that was encrypted using a fourth encrypting key, and the decrypter decrypts the encrypted first decrypting key using a fourth decrypting key to reproduce the first decrypting key.

    摘要: A system and method is provided for dequeuing connection requests in a data communications system comprising a calling subsystem and a called subsystem connected by a serial simplex switch. The connection requests are made by the calling subsystem to the called subsystem by sending a connect request message to the switch and queuing the connect request message in a buffer therein. The switch establishes a connection between the calling subsystem and the called subsystem by thereafter queuing the connect request message in a buffer in the called subsystem. Concurrently, the switch sends a connect request acknowledge message to the calling subsystem while the calling subsystem sends a connect request dequeue message to the switch. To prevent loss of synchronization between the calling subsystem and the switch, the connect request dequeue message received by the switch is interpreted as a disconnect request message and the connect request acknowledge message received by the calling subsystem is interpreted as a connect request dequeue acknowledge message. The connect request dequeue message and the disconnect request message are identically serially encoded, as are the connect request acknowledge message and the connect request dequeue acknowledge message, to enable such interpretation.

    摘要: A sequencing scheme is provided for prioritizing bus operations occurring in simplex switches which interconnect subsystems in a data communications system, thereby yielding improved aggregate system data throughput. The sequencing scheme provides procedures which simultaneously accommodate (i) concurrently pending requests to a first control bus which processes only circuit switched operations and (ii) concurrently pending requests to a second control bus which processes only packet switched operations, in an order which optimizes link level control message throughput of the simplex switch. The control messages which are coordinated by the sequencing scheme include connect and disconnect requests, connect and disconnect request acknowledgments, and data acknowledgments. All connect request and disconnect requests are managed by a connection processing (CP) bus, which operates as a circuit switching bus, and all data acknowledgments and connect request acknowledgments from subsystems attached to a cascaded switch are made over an out-of-band (OB) bus, which operates as a packet switching bus. Because connect and disconnect operations over the CP bus can proceed independently of acknowledgment operations over the OB bus, the sequencing procedures for each of the control buses are permitted to operate independently and simultaneously.
