Granted: 2013-07-23
Abstract: Mécanisme pour amorçage protégé de système d'exploitation, empêchant le chargement de composants indésirables avec le système d'exploitation et empêchant ainsi la divulgation de la clé du système dans des circonstances inappropriées. Une fois qu'une partie de la procédure de démarrage de la machine a eu lieu, le chargeur de système d'exploitation est exécuté, le chargeur est validé et l'existence d'un état de machine correct est vérifiée et/ou cet état est créé. Une fois qu'il a été vérifié que le chargeur est légitime et que l'état de machine dans lequel il se trouve est correct, le comportement futur du chargeur protège contre le chargement de composants indésirables qui pourraient entraîner la divulgation de la clé du système. Lorsque le comportement du chargeur est considéré comme sûr pour la clé du système, le valideur peut desceller la clé du système et la transmettre au chargeur.
Patent CA-2509330-C (CA)
Inventor: STELZER ERNST H K
IPC: G02B21/06
Filed: 2003-06-06
Granted: 2011-12-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a microscope, in which a layer of the sample is illuminated by a thin strip of light (11) and the sample is viewed (5) perpendicular to the plane of the strip of light. The depth of the strip of light (11) thus essentially determines the depth of focus of the system. To record the image, the object (4) is displaced through the strip of light (11), which remains fixed in relation to the detector (8), and fluorescent and/or diffused light is captured by a planar detector. Objects (4) that absorb or diffuse a large amount of light are viewed from several spatial directions. The three-dimensional images, which are captured from every direction can be combined retrospectively to form one image, in which the data is weighted according to its resolution. The resolution of the combined image is then dominated by the lateral resolution of the individual images.

Abstract: A method of displaying a map on a wireless communications device includes obtaining map data for rendering the map to be displayed on the wireless communications device, the map data including label data for rendering labels on the map. The device generates a collision-avoidance array representative of the map to be rendered for testing potential label positions prior to actually rendering the labels on the map. The collision--avoidance array is populated by provisionally designating, for each successive label to be rendered, a label space in the collision-avoidance array that corresponds to a map space that is to be occupied by the label on the map. The device then determines whether each successive label to be rendered collides in the collision-avoidance array with any previously designated label spaces. If no collision exists for a given label, the label can be rendered on the map.
