Title: Program tamper detection
Inventor: NAKAZAWA TAKESHI
IPC: G06F21/64
Filed: 2005-02-04
Abstract: A program tamper detection apparatus includes an external reprogrammable read-only memory (ROM) 4, a non-reprogrammable activation ROM 2 and a CPU 3. The external ROM stores a code for program tamper detection and an encrypted version of the program. The activation ROM stores a decrypting program for decrypting the encrypted program. The CPU executes the decrypting program to obtain a decrypted version of the program and detects program tampering based on a comparison between the code stored in the external ROM and a predetermined operation executed on the decrypted version of the program. A device identifier may also be checked (12, fig. 6) and the activation ROM may be divided into several areas for storing different decrypting programs (2a-2c, fig. 8), allowing for selection of a decrypting program. Application is to a receiver for a pay broadcasting system wherein received multimedia data is not processed if program tampering is deemed to have occurred.

Title: Method for counting pos printing of graphic objects
Inventor: WILDEY THERON A
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2004-02-13
Abstract: A method for counting the number of times a graphic object is printed by a POS system. If a graphic object is to be printed (14, 26), its predetermined ID (or type ID in the case of a surround graphic) is looked up in the counting table (28, 30) and, if present, the count is incremented (32).

Title: Fluorescent indicator proteins
Inventor: LEE SEUNG-GOO
IPC: C12N15/62
Filed: 2006-07-24
Abstract: A fluorescent indicator protein comprises a sugar binding protein, covalently linked at each end through two linkers to two fluorescent proteins. The sugar binding protein is either maltose binding protein (MPB), allose binding protein (ALBP), arabinose binding protein (ARBP), ribose binding protein (RBP) or sucrose binding protein (SBP).

Title: Steering column adjustment mechanism with angled tabs biasing cams together
Inventor: GIBSON JOHN GARETH
IPC: B62D1/184
Filed: 2006-12-07
Abstract: An adjustment mechanism for a steering column has a clamping arrangement utilizes a fixed 120 and rotatable moving 122 cam for clamping the steering column in a desired rake and/or reach position, with a biasing means urging the cams together. One cam 122 has a snail cam profile 150 formed at its periphery, the other cam has laterally extending arms 130,132 with angled flexible tabs 134,136 projecting therefrom (see fig 5). The angled flexible tabs 134,136 follow the snail cam profile 150 so that, in the clamped configuration, there is a clearance (A, fig 3) between the flexible tabs and the snail cam and, in the unclamped configuration, the flexible tabs are flexed outwardly and thereby provide an axial component of force (D, fig 5) to urge the cam surfaces of the fixed and moving cams towards each other. The tab angle may be 10{-20{ to rotation axis X. The cams can be sintered, injection moulded plastic, and/or the tabs may be assembled to the cams. The snail cam surface may be at the same angle as the tabs, and include end stops. Free play and rattle are reduced as a result.
