摘要:
Data exchange system includes at least one portable data processing unit with data communication processing and memory units, the latter including an executive program and one or more application descriptors, each application description including at least one interaction context comprising commands, data elements, data references, procedures, access conditions, and external references; the structure of the data elements and the data references as well as other references is chosen in such a way that a very efficient use of the restricted memory space of e.g. smart cards is obtained.

摘要:
A computer arrangement with a processor (5) and at least one memory unit (7, 9, 11, 13) connected to the processor (5) and including dynamic random access memory (13), wherein the computer arrangment is arranged to use but not to refresh at least part of the dynamic random access memory (13) while running a program.
摘要:
A value transfer system of at least one VCD (Value Carrying Device) (1) and at least one VAD (Value Accepting Device) (2), the VAD (2) having a memory (53) for storing at least an aggregate value (28) of previous accepted values and a device for transferring a claiming message (13), the VCD (1) having a memory (52) for storing at least a balance value (7) and a device for transferring a proving message (14), wherein the VAD (2) includes into the claiming message (13) a transaction value (20), a previous aggregate value (21) and a corresponding previously computed proving cryptogram (22), the VCD (1) computes and includes into the electronic message (14) a transaction proving cryptogram (35), computed on the basis of the previous aggregate value (21), the corresponding previously computed proving cryptogram (22) and the transaction value (20), and the VCD (1) computes the at least one transaction proving cryptogram (35) only if it has established the correctness of the received previous aggregate value (21) by using the corresponding previously computed cryptogram (22) and after it has reduced the balance value (7) with the transaction value (20).
摘要:
In a card charging system, especially for public transport services, a host ticket facility is operable by both credit cards usable at a card read/write device and concessionary payment cards usable at a contactless card reader, and a security and transaction device located between the card readers and the host facility stores in separate storage devices full fares and concessionary fares which the host facility is able to calculate. A card charging system, especially but not exclusively for payment of public transport fares is described, having one or more card readers and a security and transaction device connected between the card reader(s) and a host facility and for transmitting information back to a clearing center, wherein the security and transaction device includes a number of non-volatile storage devices for error counting and transmitting related performance data back to the clearing center. A card charging system can include a security and transaction (TSM) device located between a smart card reader, such as a contactless card reader, and a host facility to enable a purchase to be made in return for a credit debited from the card, wherein the TSM device stores each individual use of a card and transmits information relating to the time and amount debited, and downloads such information to a clearing center to enable the latter to keep a log of individual card usage and thereby enable fraud detection. Where a (TSM) device is connected between a card reader and a host to enable a purchase to be made as described, amounts debited are communicated by the TSM to the clearing center in conjunction with a code uniquely associating that particular TSM with a particular host thereby to enable correct revenue apportionment.
摘要:
Data exchange system includes at least one portable data processing unit (5) having data communication elements (14), processing device (15) and memory elements (16). The latter includes an executive program (17) and one or more application descriptions (18(1) . . . 18(n)). Each application description has at least one interaction context (19(1) . . . ) comprising commands, data elements, data references, procedures, access conditions, and external references. The structure of the data elements and the data references, as well as other references, is chosen in such a way that a very efficient use of the restricted memory space of, for example, smart cards is obtained.

摘要:
Computer-readable medium provided with a memory area (2; 26, 28) for storing data and a distinct microprocessor (3) having a communication interface (4), a memory unit (7) and a processor unit (5) connected to both the communication interface (4) and the memory unit (7). The data may include a first data portion which is arranged to be read and decrypted by a computer arrangement (11) provided at least one condition is met, and the microprocessor (3) being arranged to generate at least one cryptographic key once the condition is met that is necessary to decrypt the data. The invention is also directed to a computer arrangement arranged to communicate with such a medium.
摘要:
Computer-readable medium storing a data structure for supporting persistant storage of a set of data, the data structure including: (a) at least an oldest version of the set of data in first memory area, the first memory area including at least one first tag for uniqueley indentifying the oldest version, and (b) at least a most recently updated version of the set of data in a second, distinct memory area, the second memory area including at least one second tag for uniquely identifying the most recently updated version. The invention also relates to a computer arrangement including a processor and such a computer-readable medium, as well as to a method of updating sets of data having such tagged-data structures.
