Abstract:
Presented herein are systems and methods for integrating credit cards into mobile terminals. A mobile terminal comprises a secured non-volatile memory, a keypad, and an output. The non-volatile memory stores credit card account information. The keypad provides inputs. The output provides the credit card account information after the keypad provides a certain input.
Abstract:
Presented herein are Tertiary Content Addressable Memory based motion estimator(s). In one embodiment, there is presented a method for encoding a picture. The method comprises addressing a first memory with one or more data words for a first prediction block, and addressing a second memory with one or more data words for a second prediction block while addressing the first memory.
Abstract:
Presented herein are Tertiary Content Addressable Memory based motion estimator(s). In one embodiment, there is presented a method for encoding a picture. The method comprises storing a reference picture in a memory; taking samples from at least one line of a prediction block, wherein each of the samples comprises a plurality of bits, the plurality of bits comprising most significant bits and least significant bits; concatenating the samples; replacing the least significant bits of the samples with “don't cares”, thereby generating at least one data word; addressing the memory with the at least one data word; receiving one or more addresses, said one or more addresses associated with one or more blocks; replacing a portion of the “don't cares” with a portion of the least significant bits of the samples, thereby generating another one or more data words; and addressing the memory with the another one or more data words.

Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method and system for erasing at least a portion of non-volatile memory in an electronic device, such as for example, a mobile handset. The erase command may be received at a processor of the electronic device from an electronic device server via a wireless or a wired communication network. In an embodiment according to the present invention, the electronic device may also prompt an end-user to erase at least a portion of the non-volatile memory. Secure erasure of non-volatile memory may include overwriting at least one selected portion of memory with predetermined data/information and/or randomly generated data/information. In an embodiment according to the present invention, a secure erasure of at least one portion of non-volatile memory may include overwriting one of a plurality of times and at least once the selected portion of non-volatile memory to be erased.
Abstract:
