摘要:
Embodiments of the invention include a set of rules established by a third-party to control the execution of various functions offered by a device. The set of rules can block a function outright, or can specify particular combinations of days and times when the function can be executed and when it is blocked. Then, when the user of the device requests an instance of the function to be executed, the set of rules can be accessed to determine whether the requested function instance is permitted, after which the device can either block or execute the requested function instance.

A computer includes a processor. When an instruction to be executed by the processor involves writing to memory, the write can be redirected to a temporary page of memory. The correct amount of data can then be copied from the temporary page to the original target memory address. The advantages of the invention can be achieved, among other possibilities, via re-compiling the program or modifying instructions before execution.

To respond to internal threats to the aircraft, an incapacitating aerosol can be released into the cabin of the aircraft. The incapacitating aerosol prevents the hijackers or terrorists from accomplishing their goals. While the hijackers or terrorists are incapacitated, the pilot can land the aircraft at the first opportunity and let trained security forces, such as the police, board the aircraft and deal with the hijackers/terrorists.

Embodiments of the invention include a system to process telephone calls. The system can receive a telephone call and identify the telephone number of the calling party. A database of processing instructions then specifies whether to block the telephone call, forward the telephone call to another telephone number, send the telephone call to a voicemail system or an answering machine, or ring the telephone assigned to the called number. Based on the time of the call, the instructions to be applied can differ.

When the user enters a word in a document, the word is parsed. If the word is misspelled, a static update list is checked to see if the misspelled word has an automatic correction. If the word is not in the static update list and the user corrects the misspelling, the misspelled word and the correction are both captured in a list. If the user corrects the misspelling a sufficient number of times, the static update list can itself be dynamically updated to recognize the correction regularly entered by the user.

A computer includes a processor. When an instruction to be executed by the processor involves writing to memory, the write can be redirected to a temporary area of memory. The correct amount of data can then be copied from the temporary area to the original target memory address. The advantages of the invention can be achieved, among other possibilities, via re-compiling the program or modifying instructions before execution.
