摘要： A method and apparatus provide for performing language translation by obtaining a selection of a language preference for presentation of text and/or speech on an electronic device. When data is received that includes content in a language other than the preferred language, a decision whether translation is required may be reached by analyzing the context of the language or metadata associated with the language, such as. HTML tags, or language data included in a particular protocol, e.g. HTTP headers. A selection may be made of billing level, determined at least in part by the languages involved, desired accuracy, latency and volume of translation. If necessary, the data may be routed to a translation host or service before final presentation.

摘要： A computer is adapted for use in different operating modes by configuring an output controller, such as a graphics processing unit, to screen output signals prior to presenting them to the output device. A secure environment in the output controller verifies a digital signature or a hash of the output signal to determine whether the output signal is compatible with the current mode of operation. Thus only authorized output signals are presented when the computer is operating in a limited function mode, such as when metered usage time is expired. The apparatus and method also disclose similar output signal screening for determining whether the computer should be returned from a standby, or no-metering, mode to an active, or metered mode.

摘要： A device, such as a component or a peripheral, and corresponding computer are adapted to be bound such that the device will only operate with that computer after the binding process. Cryptographic messages are sent between the device and computer to confirm the relationship. When the device cannot confirm it is operating with the previously bound computer, the device reduces its own operating capability to render itself substantially useless until either unbound from that computer or a successful confirmation takes place. Methods for operation, binding and unbinding are also disclosed.

摘要： A computer is adapted for self-validation using a dedicated validation circuit or process. The validation circuit may include a timing circuit for activating the validation process, a verification circuit for verifying the computer is in compliance with a pre-determined set of conditions and an enforcement circuit for imposing a sanction on the computer when the computer is found in a non-compliant state. The validation circuit may include cryptographic circuitry or processes for hashing and digital signature verification. The validation circuit is preferable small and portable to help ensure that the validation circuit itself is not vulnerable to a widespread attack. A self-validation method for use by a computer is also disclosed.

摘要： A system and method for managing a cache space employs a space allocation and recycling scheme that has very low complexity for each data caching transaction regardless of the size of the data set, is virtually fragmentation free, and does not depend on garbage collection. The cache space is treated as a linear space with its two ends connected in the manner of a cyclic queue. The reclaiming and allocation of cache space for writing new objects proceeds as an “allocation wave” that sweeps in a pre-selected direction over the “circular” cache space. As the allocation wave moves along the circular space, the space used by existing objects are reclaimed for writing new objects except for those existing objects that for some reason are not to be written over. Those existing objects to be passed over by the allocation wave are viewed as “interruptions” to the generally first-in-first-out (FIFO) allocation scheme for writing new objects into the circular cache space.

摘要： In a device for shaping a flat blank (46) made of cardboard into a container (48), comprising a shaping tool (50) and a ram (10) which can be moved in a primary shaping direction (z) into the shaping tool (50) so as to erect the flat blank by means of the shaping tool (50), at least two lateral walls (18) which can be pivoted about a respective pivot axis (s) located transversely relative to the primary shaping direction (z) are hinged to the ram (10), whereby a main surface defined by the free end edges (19) of the lateral walls (18) can be adjusted. In order to carry out a pivoting motion, the lateral walls (18) are seated in a non-positively sliding manner against wedge elements (28) by means of pretensioned spring elements (22, 24), the wedge elements being displaceable in the primary shaping direction (z).

摘要： A system, method, device and protocols are disclosed. Each and combined they protect computation and data hosted on remote computing resources from first party attacks.First party attacks refer to attacks that are launched by agents (employees, contractors, etc.) of the hosting facility. Such attacks can be launched by the first patty agents, or some other adversary exploiting the privileges of the first party agent.This invention allows customers to submit workloads to a remote computing facility, e.g. a datacenter or cloud computing, with the assurance that the administrators of the remote computers cannot access the workload computation and data.The invention scales effectively from a single compute-server device to a whole datacenter with numerous compute-servers. It interoperates and may utilize VMM and VM deployment architectures. The invention allows varying degrees of datacenter operations access to the workload ranging from virtually none in the most strict case, to limited access to enable monitoring and maintenance of the workload.This invention can be applied to existing cloud computing and other datacenters with off the self computing components. Further it can be applied to existing computing resource commonly in use in such facilities. Further, the invention is applicable to a wide variety of settings including single computers, computer labs, datacenters and public and private cloud computing services.

摘要： A computer network firewall or network filter functions normally to pass data on open ports to a respective service or data source associated with an open port. In addition, traffic arriving on closed ports may be directed to a handler for analysis and response. The handler may analyze and catalog the source and type of traffic arriving on the closed ports. The handler may then send a response with either a fixed response or data tailored to the type and nature of the traffic. The handler may respond slowly to cause the source of the traffic to wait for the response, thereby slowing the speed at which a potential attacker can identify valid targets and proceed past non-valid targets.

摘要： An electronic device, such as, a computer, may be adapted for self-monitoring for compliance to an operating policy. The operating policy may specify a pay-per-use or subscription business model and measurements associated with compliant usage. A secure execution environment may measure usage in accordance with the business model as well as monitor and enforce compliance to the operating policy. To increase the difficulty of attacking or otherwise disabling the secure execution environment, elements of the secure execution environment may be distributed. The distribution points may include other functional elements of the computer, such as interface circuits, or may even be remotely located over a network. An implementation method for disaggregating the secure execution environment is also disclosed.
