| 20120137364 | REMOTE ATTESTATION OF A MOBILE DEVICE - Secure services and hardware on a mobile device are disabled if it is detected that software in the untrusted domain, such as the operating system, has been hacked or tampered with. Mobile devices often have rich, unprotected operating systems which are vulnerable to hacking, especially from execution of one or more apps. These apps are separated from secure services on the device, such as e-wallet services, NFC functionality, camera, enterprise access, and the like, and the present invention ensures that tampering with code in the untrusted domain or operating system does not affect these and other secure services. If tampering in the untrusted space is detected, the secure services and possible hardware on the device are shutdown or disabled. The extent of this disablement may depend on various factors, such as use of the device, type of device, context in which device is used (e.g., military, enterprise). | 05-31-2012 |
| 20120066366 | AGENT-BASED BANDWITH MONITORING FOR PREDICTIVE NETWORK SELECTION - A mobile device, such as a smartphone or a laptop, connects to a network based on the available bandwidth (throughput) of the network rather than on signal strength. The device may send a request containing the device's location to a service provider who has data on networks in the device's location and specifically on bandwidth or pipe performance. This data is used to determine which network in the area would be best to connect to. The network may be a network that does not necessarily have the highest signal strength (often shown as bars on a handset device). The service provider can cause the device to transition to the network having the higher bandwidth. It can also direct the user so that blackout areas are avoided using the network data maintained by the provider. The provider uses testers to obtain current bandwidth data of networks. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20090158282 | Hardware accelaration for large volumes of channels - A method apparatus and system for hardware acceleration for large volumes of channels is described. In an embodiment, the invention is a method. The method includes monitoring an inbound queue for hardware jobs. The method further includes detecting an interrupt from a hardware component. The method also includes transferring a job from the inbound queue to the hardware component. The method may further include transferring a completed job from the hardware component to an outbound queue. The method may also include providing an indication of completion of a job in an outbound queue. | 06-18-2009 |
