Systems and methods are provided for renting a peripheral storage entity to a remote client. From the service provider's vantage, one method transceives negotiation signals between a remote first client (the user) and a service provider, via a network link. Using the negotiation signals, the service provider agrees to rent a peripheral storage entity to the first client, and sends digital content from the peripheral storage entity via the network link to the remote first client. The peripheral storage entity may be located with the service provider or with a remote second client. System and methods are also provided from the perspective of remote clients that are either receiving or supplying peripheral storage entity content.

A system and method are provided for mapping information into Synchronous Payload Envelopes (SPEs). The method provides information bytes at a nominal system clock-based data rate, which is about equal to a system clock, but may be adjusted. An external clock has a rate approximately equal to the system clock rate. The method generates SPEs with identically-positioned information bytes, regardless of differences between the system and external clock rates. The SPEs are combined with Transport Overhead (TOH) and transmitted as a message frame at the external clock rate. SPEs are generated maintaining the positions of the information bytes within each SPE, without pointer adjustments, despite differences between the system and external clock rates. Expressed another way, message frames are generated with payload and TOH sections, and the information bytes are located exclusively in the payload sections. As a result, constant pointer values (e.g., H1/H2 or V1/V2) are maintained for all the SPEs.

An apparatus and corresponding method for preventing data loss in network devices is disclosed. The present invention monitors an incoming data stream to a network device, or devices, and in the event that an error condition is detected, predetermined error data is inserted into the data stream, wherein the predetermined error data is provided at the same data rate as the recovered data rate internal to the network device. Thus, the network device will not have to adjust to a different data rate and potentially lose data during the adjustment period.

A smart surface is composed of a semiconductor memory layer overlaid on an insulated conductive layer with a one to one correspondence of each memory cell with the conductive pad on the insulated layer. The entire structure can be fashioned into a either a planar structure or other geometric structure. An appliance may be overlaid the smart surface and signals transmitted and received to and from the appliance via the conductive pad(s) of the smart surface.

A system and method are presented for providing packet and time division multiplex (TDM) services in a data communication interface. The method accepts packets at a first rate over a packet interface, and transfers time-sensitive data in the packets as packet data units (PDUs) having a smaller number of bits than a packet and a second rate, faster than the first rate. The method transforms the PDUs into frames in a first TDM protocol. Typically, the PDUs are transformed into units having a smaller number of bits than the PDU and a third rate, faster than the second rate. Then, the TDM frames are transmitted over a line interface.

A system and method are provided for converting multichannel serial data streams into packets. The method accepts a plurality of serial data streams in a corresponding plurality of channels. In a time domain multiplexed (TDM) fashion, groups with an undetermined number of data bits are packed from each data stream, into an associated channel segment queue, where each segment includes a predetermined number of bits. In a TDM fashion, segments are loaded into an associated channel payload queue, where each payload includes a predetermined number of segments. Once a payload is filled, an associated pointer is created in a pointer queue. The method selects a pointer from the pointer queue, creates a packet from the payload associated with the selected pointer, and transmits the packet via a packet interface. The packet overhead may include information stored in the pointer, a packet header, or a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) checksum.

A system and method are provided for a sampled accumulation method that maps information into Synchronous Payload Envelopes (SPEs). The method buffers data from a plurality of tributaries, and sequentially stores buffer-fill information for each tributary in a first memory, at a rate of up to one tributary per system clock (Fsys) cycle. A stored accumulation of buffer-fill information for each tributary is updated at a sample rate frequency (Fsample), where Fsample≦Fsys. The stored accumulation of buffer-fill information is used to calculate stuff bit opportunities for each tributary. As a result, the rate of data being mapped into outgoing tributaries is regulated, and the outgoing mapped tributaries are combined in a SPE.

The present invention includes a BiMOS device having an MOS transistor that triggers a bipolar transistor, wherein the base and channel region are formed within a well region that electrically floats. The present invention also includes a BiMOS device having separate regions for the collector and drain regions and for the base and channel regions. The present invention further includes processes for forming the BiMOS devices. The BiMOS device may include a floating well region. The BiMOS device may include both low voltage MOS logic transistors and a high voltage or high power bipolar transistor. A low voltage or low power bipolar transistor may also be used. Separate drain, collector, base, and channel regions allow the bipolar transistor performance to be optimized independently of the MOS transistor, which may have its performance independently optimized, too. A plurality of MOS logic transistors, such as an AND or an OR gate may be used in the BiMOS device.
