International Classification:

H03K 19/177
G06F 17/50

Abstract:

A design environment for FPGA applications enables configuration of an FPGA platform to include a user design and one or more interface units, which the user design can use to access one or more external modules/devices without needing any particular knowledge of the structure and operation of such modules/devices. The interface unit corresponding to an external device/module, under the control of an operating environment, can establish a communication between the user design and the external module/device. An external processing module can use an interface unit to monitor and/or control a user design.

Abstract:

Described herein are methods and systems for tracking usage of and sharing data between mobile device applications. A mobile device receives a first application to be installed on the mobile device. The first application includes a first notification module, a content developer identifier, and a first application identifier. The mobile device receives a second application to be installed on the mobile device, the second application including a second notification module, the content developer identifier, and a second application identifier. The mobile device stores a mobile device identifier in a keychain area of the mobile device. The mobile device provides access to the keychain area for applications which include the content developer identifier. The mobile device retrieves the mobile device identifier from the keychain area for use by the first application and the second application.
