IPC: G06F9/30
Filed: 2010-09-24
Abstract: A data processing apparatus and method for switching between different privilege levels or permissions for different access rights to a memory and/or a set of registers is provided. It comprises a processing circuitry configurable to operate at a plurality of privilege levels; instruction decoding circuitry responsive to program instructions, where program instructions may comprise a debug privilege-level switching instruction; wherein if the processing circuitry is in a debug mode it switches from a current privilege level to a target privilege level, and the processing circuitry doesn't   if it is in a non-debug mode (when the instruction is undefined). The debug privilege-level switching instruction may be either incrementing [Fig. 8] or decrementing [Fig. 9] where the target privilege level is higher or lower than the current privilege level. There may also be a standard privilege-level switching instruction where the processing circuitry switches privilege levels only if it is in a non-debug mode. The privilege levels may be an application layer PL0, an operating system layer PL1, a hypervisor layer PL2 and a security monitoring layer PL3. This may be implemented via a virtual machine.

Patent GB-2476142-A (GB)
Title: Management of command and address errors in a memory device
Inventor: BAINS KULJIT S
IPC: G06F11/10
Filed: 2010-10-26
Abstract: A memory device 120 provides command/address (C/A) parity support and handles commands and address parity errors and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors. Memory module 120 receives control signals 132, address signals 130, and parity signals 140. Memory 120 has error handling logic 124 to determine whether command bits or address bits of the received command has any parity errors. If a parity or CRC error is detected, the received command is ignored, the command bits and address bits of the errant command are stored in the error log bits (230) of mode register 122, and memory 120 asserts an indication signal, e.g. alert signal (340), to memory control hub 110. In response, memory control hub 110 may send a precharge command (625) and a refresh command (630) to all memory modules. Thus, the system does not need to reboot to recover from an errant command. Memory controller 110 may read an error status bit (220) from one or more memory modules to determine which memory module is the source of error. Memory 120 may differentiate between a detected CRC data error and command parity errors by varying the width (number of clock cycles) of the alert signal.

Title: Tilting mechanism for aircraft propulsion system
Inventor: GLASS ALEXANDER
IPC: B64C27/20
Filed: 2010-12-15
Abstract: An aircraft 1, such as a UAV, has a propulsion system comprising rotors 6 mounted within circular fan ducts 7 whose orientation is controllable by a tilting mechanism 14. The tilting mechanism comprises a support arm 18 having a support end 19 connected to the fan to support it. The other end of the support arm is movable along a guide track 21 of a guide rail 22. The guide rail is curved to enable the propulsion system to be rotatable about one axis and is mounted to a base plate 26. An electrical servo motor 27 forms part of an actuator having an actuator rail 28 that is slidably connected to the support arm. Rotation of the motor causes the support arm to move in an arc along the guide track thus causing the propulsion system to rotate about the first axis. A primary servo 31 has its output connected to the base plate adjacent the guide and enables the propulsion system to be rotated about an axis coincident with that of the support arm and perpendicular to the first axis. The propulsion system may comprise turbo fans, turbo jets or turbo props.

Title: Insight distribution
Inventor: YOAKUM JOHN H
IPC: G06F21/10
Filed: 2009-05-20
Abstract: The present invention relates to using authorization information provided by an asserting agent to control insight-related interactions between a receiving agent and an insight agent. The insight may be information that relates to an entity with whom or a device with which the asserting agent is associated. Such insight is generally referred to as insight of the asserting agent. An insight source maintains the insight of the asserting agent, and the insight agent provides controlled access to the insight by the receiving agent through the insight-related interactions. For others to gain access to at least certain of the asserting agent's insight, the asserting agent must authorize the insight agent to provide the asserting agent's insight to the receiving agent. Upon obtaining the proper authorization, the insight agent will interact with the receiving agent and distribute the asserting agent's insight to the receiving agent.

Patent GB-2502764-A (GB)
Title: Ball catcher with retention capability
Inventor: NELSON JONATHAN F
IPC: E21B23/04
Filed: 2010-09-01
Abstract: A ball catcher is designed to stop balls that are the same size or different sizes at an inlet on a seat that is connected to a movable biased sleeve. Once the ball or other shaped object lands at the seat the flow around it increases differential pressure on the seat and sleeve and displaces them against the bias. The ball goes into a surrounding annular space and cannot exit. A preferably spiral sleeve guide the movement of the balls in the annular space so that efficient use of the annular space is made to maximize the number of balls that can be captured per unit length of the annular space. As soon as the ball enters the annular space the sleeve shifts back to the original position to stop the next ball at the inlet. Once in the annular space, the balls cannot escape if there is a flow reversal. The central passage remains open to pass other tools and flow.
Patent GB-2502600-A (GB)
Title: A method for determining touch in a touch sensitive display with reference to base touch or offset values
Inventor: MORRISON ANDREW
IPC: G06F3/041
Filed: 2012-05-31
Abstract: A method of operating a capacitive touch sensitive display that includes an input array of electrodes and output array conductors (420, 410) in which touch is determined by reference to a proportional or percentage difference between a measured value at an intersect point and a base touch value/offset value (at e.g. the intersect point). The base touch value is indicative of there being no touch on the sensor (at for example the particular intersection point). Touch is determined by comparing the proportional difference to a predetermined proportional touch threshold. This method takes into account that voltage levels may not uniform across the senor and addresses the problems of non-uniform coupling across a touch sensor.
