20080215892 | Data Transmission Between Modules - In a method for transferring data (D) between a first module ( | 09-04-2008 |
20080219441 | Arrangement Comprising an Integrated Circuit - An integrated circuit ( | 09-11-2008 |
20080251577 | Assembly Comprising a Tachograph - An assembly has a tachograph and a data memory, in particular a data memory of a data card. The tachograph has an interface designed to exchange data between the tachograph and the data memory, logic function modules and at least one memory. In a method for operating the tachograph, as a result of high security requirements, the data transfer between the data memory and the tachograph is extremely time-intensive. At the start of the data transfer a virtual reproduction of the data memory is created in the memory of the tachograph and the logic function modules first have read and write access to the virtual reproduction in the memory. Data is then regularly written to the data memory of the data card by a write access to the memory, thus eliminating the differences between the virtual reproduction and the data memory. | 10-16-2008 |
20080262674 | Data Processing Arrangement and the Operation Mode Thereof - A data processing arrangement, in particular a tachograph for a motor vehicle has a control device and at least one memory. The traceability of an error arising during the data processing arrangement operation can be better guaranteed. At least one partial area of the memory is embodied in the form of a sequence memory and a control device is constructed such that sequences of the data processing arrangement or of the tachograph are recorded in the sequence memory, wherein the sequence memory is provided with at least one ring memory which is organised such that an oldest input is overwritten by a new input, respectively. Thus, it is made possible to record a plurality of sequential events leading to a substantial error in the sequence memory such that the size of the memory is increased within economically acceptable limits during a long operation of the arrangement. | 10-23-2008 |

20090327760 | Tachograph - A tachograph includes at least one chip card reading unit and, at least one chip card with secure memory. Secured data transmission can be fed to the at least one chip card reading unit. On the at least one chip card, at least one user-defined piece of identification information is securely stored which is independent of a specified piece of identification information for a specified operation of the tachograph. The tachograph is constructed so as to authenticate the at least one chip card in accordance with the at least one piece of user-defined identification information, and to read data securely from the at least one chip card and/or to store data securely on the at least one chip card. | 12-31-2009 |
20100004813 | Method and Apparatus for Transmitting Data Between a Tachograph and a Data Processing Device - A system and method for transmitting data via a transmission path between a tachograph arranged in a vehicle, and a data processing device which is remote from the vehicle. To improve data protection, the transmission takes place via a first path section of the transmission path, which path section is arranged between the tachograph and a communication controller arranged in the vehicle, and a second wireless path section of the transmission path, which path section is arranged between the communication controller and the data processing device. The tachograph in response to an encryption request signal sent from the data processing device to the tachograph encrypts data sent from the tachograph to the data processing device. The data is transmitted in encrypted form from the tachograph to the data processing device both via the first path section and via the second path section. | 01-07-2010 |
20100100749 | Single-Chip Computer and Tachograph - A single-chip computer includes at least one first processor core and at least one second processor core constructed on a common chip. The at least one first and the at least one second processor cores are interconnected via a processor interface. Data can be read via a separate or common memory interface from a separate or common data memory respectively and/or stored in said data memory. The single-chip computer includes an encryption and decryption unit which is assigned to the at least one processor core and which is constructed and functionally arranged between the at least one second processor core and the memory interface in such a way that the data which can be exchanged between the at least one second processor core and the data memory can be encrypted and decrypted by the encryption and decryption unit. | 04-22-2010 |
20120269341 | Method For Operating A Tachograph And Tachograph - A method for operating a tachograph having an application controller and a safety controller. A memory is associated with the application controller and a further memory is associated with the safety controller. An encrypted program code having at least one associated signature is made available to the safety controller. The encrypted program code is decrypted by means of the security controller and verified by the at least one signature. It is detected whether the decrypted program code (EPC) is intended for the application controller and/or for the security controller. Depending on what is detected, the program in the memory and/or the further program in the further memory is at least partially replaced by the decrypted program code and, depending on a result of the verification, the at least partially replaced program and/or the at least partially replaced further program is released for executing. | 10-25-2012 |
