20090113141 | MEMORY PROTECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD - A shared memory controller is provided for controlling access to a shared memory by a plurality of processors. At least one device includes a storage area for storing a respective address range for each of a plurality of memory regions. The at least one device further includes a permission table containing, for each of the plurality of memory regions, read and write permission data for each of the plurality of processors. A memory fault detector is coupled to the at least one device and has an input for receiving a memory access request including a memory address, a processor identification and a read/write indicator. The memory fault detector includes logic for determining whether a memory access according to the memory access request would conflict with the read and write permission data in the permission table. | 04-30-2009 |

20090010251 | Simplifying DSL Deployment via Analog/DSL Combination Solution - A method using a combination analog/DSL modem for deploying DSL services is disclosed. A combination analog/DSL modem is utilized at the subscriber premises. A telephone line is tested using the analog portion of the modem. In combination with information provided by the subscriber and records, suitability of the service line for DSL services may be accurately determined. DSL service is then ordered by the subscriber. Preferably, DSL services are deployed on top of the existing analog voice service line allowing service turn-on within a short period of time. The subscriber can have the ability to access a network using the DSL portion of the combination modem. If during modem testing, it is determined that the telephone line would not support DSL service, the subscriber would be informed that DSL service is currently not available for them. However, the subscriber could continue to use the analog portion of the combination modem. | 01-08-2009 |
