International Classification:

H04Q 720

US Classification:

4554561, 370390

Abstract:

An in-vehicle system ( ) having a radio ( ) sends and receives messages that include an identifier that uniquely identifies the vehicle and that further includes affinities as correspond to the vehicle and/or occupants of the vehicle. The messages can constitute requests for information ( ), offers to provide information ( ), and other representations. Such requests and offers can correlate to an information payload contained within the message and/or to the affinities set forth in the message identifier.

International Classification:

H04L 9/32

US Classification:

713156

Abstract:

A wireless communication system includes a pager or similar device that communicates to a home terminal. The home terminal confirms the identity of the pager and attaches a certificate to the message for ongoing transmission. Where the recipient is also a pager, an associated home terminal verifies the transmission and forwards it in a trusted manner without the certificate to the recipient.

14/830707

Inventors:

Walter Lee Davis - Rogersville MO, US
Timothy W. Markison - Mesa AZ, US

International Classification:

H02J 7/00

Abstract:

An energy module includes a capacitance-based power source structure, charging circuitry, a DC-to-DC conversion system, and an energy control module. The capacitance-based power source structure is operable to supply a voltage when the energy module is in a voltage supply mode, wherein, when substantially fully charged, the voltage is at least 48 volts and to receive a charge when the energy module is in a charge mode. The charging circuitry is operable to provide a regulated charge voltage to the capacitance-based power source structure when the energy module is in the charge mode. The DC-to-DC conversion system is operable to convert the voltage into one or more regulated supply voltages when the energy module is in the voltage supply mode. The energy control module is operable to determine the voltage supply mode and the charge mode.

Walter Lee Davis - Rogersville MO, US

Assignee:

UNIQUESOFT, LLC - Palatine IL

International Classification:

G06F 21/55

US Classification:

726 22

Abstract:

A computing device includes a central processing resource, memory, a network interface, and a security control module. The security control module is operable to determine to change at least a portion of a program of the computing device. When the program, or portion thereof, is to be changed, the security control module sends a request to a software generation module for a new version of the program, or portion thereof. The security control module then receives the new version of the program, or portion thereof, and replaces, within the memory, the program, or portion thereof, with the new version of the program, or portion thereof. When the program is evoked, the central processing resource uses the new version of the program, or portion thereof, such that execution of the program is changed, which changes internal operation of the computing device thereby reducing adverse impact of malicious software.

UNIQUESOFT,LLC - PALATINE IL

International Classification:

G06F 21/55

US Classification:

726 22

Abstract:

A computing device includes a central processing resource, memory, a network interface, and a security control module. The security control module determines when to change a program of the computing device. When the program is to be changed, the security control module accesses a library of programs that includes a plurality of versions of the program and selects one of the plurality of versions of the program. The security control module then updates an active program list to include the selected version of the program. When the program is evoked, the central processing resource uses the selected version of the program such that execution of the program is changed, which changes internal operation of the computing device thereby reducing adverse impact of the malicious software.
