Patent GB-0312202-D0 (GB)
Title: Trusted user interface for a secure mobile wireless device
IPC: H04M1/72403
Filed: 2003-05-28
Abstract: A mobile wireless device programmed with software which provides a trusted user interface for the device by allowing the content of a secure screen memory to be modifiable only by authorised applications. Normally, the entire screen memory address is public information, making the entire screen memory fully available to any application; hence, even sensitive dialogs would use screen memory which can in theory be looked at by malicious software, enabling that malicious code to grab PIN data etc. or corrupt a trusted user interface. But with the present invention, unauthorised applications are prevented from accessing the data displayed by the secure frame buffer because they are able to access only the non-secure screen memory. Hence, malicious applications cannot retrieve data from a trusted dialog or compromise that data. Further, as the present invention is a software only solution, it requires no new hardware per se-the only requirement is that components (e.g. a software window server; a video chip etc.) can select content from different parts of screen memory-i.e. secure and non-secure frame buffers.

Title: Delegating universal serial bus functionality
IPC: G06F13/10
Filed: 2006-04-26
Abstract: A method of implementing USB Host functionality specifically designed to ensure a secure and resilient USB-On-The-Go implementation. A USB Hub Driver is configured so that it is able to nominate a portion of the USB topology to be transferred to the control of a peripheral driver or function driver. This nomination process generates a token that is associated with the nominated portion. The token is passed by the Hub Driver to the peripheral driver or function driver. The peripheral driver or function driver then uses the token to claim control over the nominated portion of the USB topology. The token can subsequently be transferred to other software entities as appropriate.

Title: Testing apparatus
IPC: G01R31/319
Filed: 1985-03-29
Abstract: An in-circuit testing apparatus (manufacturing defects analyzer) for the determination of manufacturing defects in an electrical circuit board such as short circuits, tracking faults, mininserted omitted and out-of tolerance components etc., and not for effecting full functional testing of the circuit board, comprises an array of bidirectionally current conducting analog switching networks each of which defines a test point for connection to a node of a circuit board and connectable, under software control of the respective switchng network, either to a stimulus source or to a reference (e.g. ground) potential and simultaneously also to an input of a measurement facility.

Patent GB-8524640-D0 (GB)
Title: Handling strip material
IPC: B21B33/00
Filed: 1985-10-07
Abstract: To protect a heat shield arrangement over of a hot-rolling mill, at the entry end of the table contact members (14) of large mass are suspended over the path of the hot material (M) to form a height barrier for distorted material. The members are suspended displaceably from bars (30) on a cantilevered support (12) that leaves one side of the table (2) open for the removal of scrapped material. The bars (30) pass through contoured apertures (32) in the members which permit the members to move in forwards and upwards so that when struck by the material they can lift and can also yield to the frictional force of the material travelling under them. The loading on the cantilevered support is thereby reduced. Reduction in peak loadings also result from mounting the members (14) on an upwardly pivotable cantilever frame (12, 60) and by damping the return movements of the members and/or the frame.

Patent GB-9810590-D0 (GB)
Title: A flow meter
IPC: G01F1/40
Filed: 1998-05-19
Abstract: A flow meter for use in an oil well has a central bore region in which an annular tube is fixed co-axially with the central bore region by a ring, which also seals the gap between the inner bore of the central bore region and the tube at its downstream end, thus forming a pocket open to the direction of fluid flow through the central bore region. The pocket brings the fluid to rest, thereby converting all of the dynamic pressure of the fluid into static pressure. This has the effect of maximizing the pressure differential obtainable between the central bore region and a position upstream of the tube, which allows an electronic calculation to be made to provide a more accurate flow rate measurement than would have been possible without the pocket.
