Abstract:
A data processing device has a processor which executes software directly from non-volatile memory. The processor has a runtime component which dynamically maps software element identifiers specified by the software to corresponding software elements in memory. Mapping information is used to determine which software elements identifiers correspond to which software elements. This provides a level of indirection which can be used to make software updates more efficient, by updating only parts of the software while leaving old parts of the software as they are. Updated software elements can be stored to memory and the mapping information updated to point to the new elements, while existing mappings may be retained.
Abstract:
A method of provisioning a device to use a data service provided by a data service provider comprises maintaining a list of unique identifiers of devices to which a trusted certificate has been issued and receiving a data service request for a device. The request will include a unique identifier for the device and a certificate. In response to the data service request, the list of device unique identifiers is consulted in order to verify that the certificate contained in the data service request is a trusted certificate. If the certificate contained in the service request is a trusted certificate, the certificate may then be forwarded to the data service provider.
Abstract:
A data processing device 2 has a processor 4 which executes software directly from non-volatile memory 6, 8. The processor 4 has a runtime component 20 which dynamically maps software element identifiers specified by the software to corresponding software elements in memory 6, 8. Mapping information 22 is used to determine which software elements identifiers correspond to which software elements. This provides a level of indirection which can be used to make software updates more efficient, by updating only parts of the software while leaving old parts of the software as they are. Updated software elements can be stored to memory and the mapping information updated to point to the new elements, while existing mappings may be retained.
Abstract:
Technology for operating a data-source device for assembling a data stream compliant with a data stream constraint. The technology comprises acquiring a plurality of data items by accessing data in a memory and/or transforming data. Prior to completion of the accessing data in a memory, an accessor is selected based on an estimate of access constraint. Prior to completion of the transforming data, a transformer is selected based on an estimate of transformation constraint, wherein the transportation constraint comprises any data acquisition constraint. The access and transformation constraints are dependent upon system state it the data-source system. The data items are positioned in the data stream, and, responsive to achieving compliance with the data stream constraint, the data strewn is communicated.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for remotely monitoring a plurality of distributed devices is provided. The apparatus and methods determine logging conditions which define a state of a device at which recording of the state of the device should begin prior to an event, in order to identify a sequences of actions which occur at the devices prior to the event.
