The invention relates to a method for verifying transformation (2) of a source code (1) into a transformed code (3) designed for an embedded system (7) such as in a smart card or other portable or mobile device including data processing resources. The method comprises at least the following steps: determining a single virtual machine that factors in the behavior of both of these codes (1, 3), determining for each source code (1) and transformed code (3) a plurality of auxiliary functions representing the residual differences between said source code (1) and transformed code (3), and a step for verifying a correspondence property between the auxiliary functions, the verification of the code transformation (2) being obtained from this last step.
Abstract:
A method of providing image goods and/or services to more than one party located at different locations. The method includes providing a camera for substantially simultaneously capturing an image both electronically and on a photosensitive media by a customer and transmitting the electronic image to a third party at a location remote from the customer along with additional data. The additional data identifying the image with respect to the photosensitive media. The customer and/or the third party placing an order with a service provider for at least one good and/or service with respect to the image. The service provider assembles the order upon receipt of the photosensitive media.

Abstract:
In a distance-measuring method comprising a distance-measuring apparatus having at least one frequency-modulatable laser source for producing chirped laser radiation. The laser radiation has radiation components with opposite chirp as time dependency of the modulated wavelengths, the simultaneous oppositeness of the frequency curve being realized via an optical delay path (3) for one of the two radiation components. The radiation produced is passed in a measuring interferometer (5) to a target (6) and parallel via a local Oscillator. After reception of the laser radiation scattered back from the target (6) and passed via the local oscillator path, the laser radiation received is converted into signals and the distance to the at least one target (6) is determined from the signals on the basis of interferometric mixing.
