Abstract: Existing encryption systems are designed to protect secret keys or other data under a "black box attack, where the attacker may examine the algorithm, and various inputs and outputs, but has no visibility into the execution of the algotitm itself. However, it has been shown that the black box model is generally unrealistic, and that attack efficiency rises dramatically if the attacker can observe even minor aspects of the algorithm's execution. The invention protects software from a "white-box attack", where the attacker has total visibility into software implementation and execution. In general, this is done by encoding the software and widely diffusing sites of information transfer and/or combination and/or loss. Other embodiments of the invention include : the introduction of lossy subcomponents, processing inputs and outputs with random cryptographic functions, and representing algorithmic steps or components as tables, which permits encoding to be represented with arbitrary nonlinear bijections.

Abstract: Provided are starters for securely starting an
internal combustion engine. The starters have a reel
rotatably mounted in a case, a starting rope wound on
the reel, a rotor rotatably mounted in the case, a
spring for storing energy with rotation of the rotor in
a predetermined direction, an engaging mechanism for
engaging the reel with the rotor with pullout of the
starting rope to transmit a torque of the reel to the
rotor to store energy in the spring, and an engagement
release mechanism for releasing the engagement between
the reel and the rotor at the start of rewinding of the
starting rope onto the reel to rotate the rotor by a
restoring force of the spring. This arrangement
permits the internal combustion engine to be started
readily and securely.

Abstract: At the starting of a hydrogen generating device having a hydrogen separator
membrane 62 which separates hydrogen from a reformed gas, a starting control is
executed in accordance with a temperature of the hydrogen separator membrane 62.
When the hydrogen separating membrane 62 is in a low temperature condition, a lean
burn operation is carried out in a reformer in order to conduct warm-up while
suppressing generation of hydrogen. At the timing t1 where the temperature of the
hydrogen separator membrane 62 has reached a temperature at which hydrogen
embrittlement does not occur, reforming is initiated. In such a condition, oxygen is
supplied to hydrogen which is permeated through the hydrogen separator membrane for
burning the hydrogen, so as to further facilitate the warm-up. At the timing t2 where
the temperature has reached an operation temperature, the supply of oxygen in a purge
side is stopped so as to stop the burning of hydrogen, and an operation mode is shifted
to a normal operation.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle of the present invention includes
a brake 62 that fixes a sun gear shaft 31a linked with a
sun gear 31 of a power distribution integration mechanism
30, and a clutch 64 that mechanically connects a drive shaft
36 with a motor MG2 and releases the mechanical connection
of the drive shaft 36 with the motor MG2. In the case of
a relatively low vehicle speed, the power of an engine 22
is subjected to torque conversion by the power distribution
integration mechanism and motors MG1 and MG2 and is output
to the drive shaft 36, while the brake 62 is in OFF position
and the clutch 64 is in ON position. In the case of a
relatively high vehicle speed, on the other hand, the power
of the engine 22 is directly output to the drive shaft 36,
while the brake 62 is in ON position and the clutch 64 is
in OFF position.

releasing the one of tire bead rims "e" of the tire "d"
from the one of engaging rims "b" of the disk wheel "a"
are repeated a predetermined number of times for each of

rims "b" and released therefrom, the tire bead rims "e"
snugly fit with the engaging rims "b", so that the RFV
value is considerably lowered and stable maneuverability
during driving can be obtained unless the fitting state is
subsequently changed.
