Patent EP-1406178-A3 (EP)
Inventor: MOWERY KEITH R
IPC: G06F13/40
Filed: 2003-10-01
Abstract: When integrating a peripheral, it is common practice to use a fully custom design.
Custom designs typically optimize performance, size, and energy usage. However, custom
designs are more expensive in terms of testing and development time. Rather than
designing an integrated peripheral, an existing design (for example, peripheral 420) for the
peripheral with attendant communications bus interface (for example, interface 424) is
combined with an existing communications bus interface (for example, peripheral bus
interface 410) to produce an integrated circuit (for example, integrated circuit 405). The
use of existing designs greatly reduces development and test time, along with costs.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products that provide for a runtime messaging infrastructure, which abstracts send and receive operations for exchanging messages with partner endpoint. The messaging infrastructure improves availability and scalability of a message application by improving on the availability and scalability of the underlying message transports. In particular, availability and scalability are improved by linking the message application at runtime with any number of the message transports, without the message application specifying a transport at development time. The message infrastructure receives instructions from the message application specifying end-to-end delivery assurances. The infrastructure uses transports in order to fulfill the specified delivery assurance, and creates a link between the message application and transports for use in exchanging messages. Session state storage can be maintained in a pluggable store, which could be, for example, a durable database store or an application memory store.

Abstract: The problems of an additional load to an AR having the function of transferring a packet, a BR functioning as a border relay device, and an address management server, a packet loss due to an unnecessary inquiry to the management server, an increasing delay of a packet transfer, etc. can be reduced. According to the address identification information for identification of the type of an address, routers determine to which type the address assigned to a given packet belongs, a terminal identification address for identification of a source terminal and a destination terminal, a packet transfer address for transfer of the packet to another router, or an address requiring no address conversion. Thus, an address conversion network connected to an external IP network can be realized, an increased load by an inquiry about an erroneous address, etc. and a packet loss and delay due to an unnecessary inquiry can be reduced.

Abstract: A universal credit card system utilizes a portable card access device which stores
information associated with multiple bank card accounts, electronically
authenticates a user of the bank card accounts, allows the user to select a
particular one of the bank card accounts for usage, and then magnetically encodes
the selected bank card account information on a separate card substrate (a
"universal" credit card) and releasing the card for use. Bank card account
information can be stored by inserting an existing bank card into the access device
and reading the existing bank card, by manually entering the information using a
keypad, or by downloading the information from a computer directly to the card
access device. Authentication may be performed using an optical fingerprint
scanner. After use, the universal credit card is re-inserted into the card access
device and the previously selected bank card account information is erased. The
universal credit card system may advantageously be used in conjunction with a
credit card application automation system which can issue a new bank card with
practically no wait time. The user enters application information into a local
computer, which transmits the user application information to a host server via the
Internet. Once approved, the host server sends new bank card account information
to the local computer, and the local computer can immediately download the
information into the card access device, which then generates a universal credit
card having the new bank card account information.
