Title: Handling access attributes for data accesses
Inventor: CRASKE SIMON JOHN
IPC: G06F12/14
Filed: 2013-08-23
Abstract: A data processing apparatus has processing circuitry for executing first software at a first privilege level (12, Fig 2) and second software (10, Fig 2) at a second privilege level higher than the first privilege level. Attributes are set by the first and second software to indicate whether execution of a data access instruction can be interrupted. For a predetermined type of data access instruction, for which the second attribute set by the second software specifies that the instruction can be interrupted, the instruction may be set as interruptable even if the first attribute set by the first software specifies that the execution of the instruction cannot be interrupted. The data access instruction may occur over a number of processor cycles such as load or store multiple instructions. In one embodiment the first software may be an operating system operating under the control of a hypervisor running as the second software (Fig 2)

Title: Vehicle safety device using impact position to determine acceleration threshold
Inventor: SCHMID MICHAEL
IPC: B60R21/0136
Filed: 2013-11-01
Abstract: A vehicle passenger safety device with an acceleration sensor oriented in the main travel direction and a pressure-sensitive impact sensor device. The pressure sensitive impact sensor can be arranged at the front of the vehicle and can be an air filled pressure hose mounted between a bumper cross member and a bumper element. The impact sensors are pressure sensitive and can be for example piezosensors, optical fibre sensors or acceleration sensors. By determining the relative timing t1, t2 of a set pressure trigger level p2 or the relative pressures p1, p2 at a set time t1 after an impact, a collision can be deduced as symmetric (ie head on) or asymmetric (ie oblique) and an impact position variable can be set. The impact position variable is used to determine the threshold level of an acceleration variable above which the safety device is initiated and that threshold value can be changed to a lower threshold if an oblique impact is identified.

Title: Method and apparatus providing single-tier routing in a network
Inventor: KEESARA SRIKANTH
IPC: H04L45/122
Filed: 2013-12-19
Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for providing Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) and gateway Media Access Controller (MAC) distribution is presented. A Layer 3 (L3) controller is provided in a network. The L3 controller resolves Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) messages for a host on a subnet associated with a Layer 2 Virtual Switching Network (L2VSN) When it tries to route a packet to a host. The L3 controller distributes information relating to the ARP messages to a distributed data path. When the host moves from a first access point to a second access point, it sends out a gratuitous ARP message, and the L3 controller updates an ARP 10 record associated with the host and pushes the updated information to the distributed datapath.

Title: Gaming machine including win chains
Inventor: GUGLER MARTIN
IPC: G07F17/32
Filed: 2014-01-31
Abstract: A gaming machine has a standard game play mode and a bonus feature game play mode both implemented via a computer and display. The bonus feature includes a win chain counter having an integer value. During standard game play, the user interface randomly displays a matrix of symbols and the computer calculates the wins based on the matrix of symbols. On appearance of a predetermined number of scatter symbols, a bonus feature commences and the win chain counter is initialized. During the bonus feature, a winning spin initializes a first win chain, and a first non-winning spin decrements the win chain counter value, after a first win chain is initialized, and prior to a non-winning spin, winning spins are added to the first win chain. Subsequent win chains are generated and terminated by a non-winning spin until the win chain counter is decremented to zero. Then the bonus feature terminates. The player can accumulate a large bonus award if a large number of spins form a win chain. The standard game and the bonus feature may be displayed on different displays of a gaming machine or the same display. The invention seeks to provide an entertaining game for players.

Filed: 2015-11-22
Abstract: Disclosed is a transaction security system with a merchant's terminal 7 a mobile device 2 operable by a customer 1 and authorising authority servers 4,5,6. The merchant's terminal communicates with the authorising authority on a first band 6a which may form a part of a wide area network. The customer's mobile device communicates with the authorising authority on a second independent band 9 which forms part of the wide area network. The mobile device acquires transaction data and calculates a one-time code (OTC) from the transaction and other data on the device before transmission to the authorising authority servers. If subject to conventional credit checks, the transaction is approved by the authorising authority, the transaction is pre-approved to the customer. The customer device communicates the pre-approved anonymised OTC to the merchant's terminal. The merchant's terminal then communicates the received OTC with the authorising authority over the first band. If this matches the original approved OTC received by the authorising authority the transaction is approved if not it is refused.
