摘要:
Devices, systems, and methods according to one such aspect of the invention comprises (i) a sensing device that is attached (or otherwise coupled) to a skateboard and that measures a physical characteristic of it and/or of its environment, (ii) an audio output device, and (iii) a digital data processor that is communicatively coupled to the audio output device and the sensor. The digital data processor drives the audio output device to effect one or more selected sounds (e.g., to prompt the user to perform a selected action). The digital data processor, further, and monitors the sensing device to identify user actions in response to those sounds and drives the audio output device to effect still further sounds based on those actions.

Systems and methods for social and other sporting activities. A system according to one such aspect of the invention comprises a sensing device that is attached to an object, such as a skateboard (by way of non-limiting example), for measuring characteristics thereof. It communicates those characteristics wirelessly, e.g., via bluetooth, to a mobile device, such as a cell phone, personal digital assistant, or the like (by way of non-limiting example). That device can log and/or display those characteristics, graphically, for study or analysis by the operator (e.g., the skateboard enthusiast) or others.

Disclosed herein are methods and apparatus for electronic commerce. By way of example, in one embodiment such methods and apparatus enable a buyer's digital data processor to make requests to an on-line store to view purchase options for a selected product/service as well as to view benefits for consummating those transactions. Further, a store's electronic display/register or a handheld computing device may enable a shopper in a physical store to view such information and earn benefits. Those benefits may differ by item and seller and may include money and/or points. With such money and/or points having been accumulated through on-line and brick and mortar store purchases, e.g. in buyer's account, a buyer's digital data processor can facilitate redemption of the money and/or points at the same or other stores, for example to purchase additional items or for other purposes.

The invention provides, in some aspects, a digital ticketing system, comprising first and second digital data devices (e.g., cell phones, PDAs, etc.) that are coupled, at least intermittently, with a server via a network. The server responds to a request, e.g., from the first digital data device, by electronically issuing to it a ticket (or option therefor) for use by a holder thereof in gaining a seating (or other selected attendance) at an event. The server responds to a subsequent request, e.g., by the second digital data device, by (re)issuing the ticket (and/or option) to it for use by a holder of that second device in gaining the aforesaid seating (or other selected attendance) at the event in lieu of that by the holder of the first digital data device.

The invention provide systems and methods for management of digital media objects, comprising first and second client digital data processors (e.g., personal (or private) computers, laptops, dedicated music devices, electronic book readers, and so forth) that are in communications coupling with one or more stores (e.g, dedicated disk drives, flash drives, cloud storage, etc.). At least one digital media object (DMO) or copy thereof is stored in one or more of those stores and is accessible by at least one of the first and second client digital data processors.
摘要:
In a computing system having virtualization software including a guest operating system (OS), a method for executing guest OS instructions that includes: replacing each of one or more guest OS instructions with: (a) a translated instruction, which translated instruction is a one-to-one translation, or (b) a trap instruction.

摘要:
In a computing system including a processor and virtualization software including a guest operating system (OS) that utilizes a guest domain access control register (DACR) containing domain access information and guest page tables including first level page tables (L1 page tables) and second level page tables (L2 page tables), which guest page tables contain: (a) domain identifiers used to obtain domain access information from the guest DACR and (b) access permission information, wherein the domain access information and the access permission information are combined to provide an effective guest access permission, in accordance with one embodiment, a method for providing shadow page tables and processor DACR settings that virtualize processor memory protection includes: the virtualization software providing a shadow page table wherein: (a) domain identifiers in the shadow page table are used to identify domain access information in the processor DACR that are mapped from the domain access information in the guest DACR; and (b) access permissions in the shadow page table that are mapped from the effective access permission information in the guest page tables and guest DACR; wherein a memory management unit (MMU) in the processor traverses the shadow page table, accesses the processor DACR, and combines the mapped domain access information in the processor with the mapped access permission in the shadow page table to reflect the guest intended effective access permissions while isolating the guest from the virtualization software.
