Filed:

Apr 5, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/117777

Inventors:

James R. Johnson - Pleasant Hill CA, US
Steven L. Myers - Parkland FL, US

Assignee:

Myers & Johnson, Inc. - Pleasant Hill CA

International Classification:

H01Q 124

US Classification:

343702, 343853

Abstract:

An interferometric antenna array for use with a wireless communications device in reducing electromagnetic energy in a region proximate to the antenna array. The antenna array comprises two or more radiating elements coupled through circuitry to the wireless communications device. The circuitry operates to appropriately divide a signal from the communications device into a plurality of signals and to phase-shift the plurality of signals such that the electromagnetic wave pattern formed proximate to the antenna array by the two or more radiating elements, which are fed by the phase-shifted plurality od signals, includes a spatial null. The spatial null is located at a region where sensitive electronic equipment, or some portion of a user of the communications device is also located.

International Classification:

G06F 21/62
G16H 10/60

Abstract:

A server system implemented by a service provider may store health data of a user according to a multi-node data structure. The server system may generate transaction records based on requests to access the health data. Responsive to requests for the transaction records, the server system may query a database that includes the health data and generate a data package based on the querying. The data package may be sent to a requesting system. The data package may be usable by the requesting system to identify which patient profiles were accessed by which physicians.

International Classification:

H04L 9/08
G06F 21/60

Abstract:

This Application sets forth techniques for establishing a custodial relationship between a user device and a custodian device for recovering access to a user account and/or to encrypted user data with assistance provided by the custodian device to effect access recovery. A server of a cloud network service provides an anonymous identifier to associate with the custodian device and an account recovery key to store at the custodian device. Identity of an account of the cloud network service associated with the custodian device can be hidden from the server. The user device generates a data recovery key and provides a first portion of the data recovery key to the custodian device and a second portion of the data recovery key to the server. Integrity of the stored account recovery key and portions of the data recovery key are checked regularly by the custodian device and the user device.

Abstract:

A system and method for efficiently protecting branch prediction information. In various embodiments, a computing system includes at least one processor with a branch predictor storing branch target addresses and security tags in a table. The security tag includes one or more components of machine context. When the branch predictor receives a portion of a first program counter of a first branch instruction, and hits on a first table entry during an access, the branch predictor reads out a first security tag. The branch predictor compares one or more components of machine context of the first security tag to one or more components of machine context of the first branch instruction. When there is at least one mismatch, the branch prediction information of the first table entry is not used. Additionally, there is no updating of any branch prediction training information of the first table entry.

Abstract:

Techniques disclosed herein relate to the pairing of a pairing initiator device and a pairing responder device for communication. The pairing initiator device and the pairing responder device range with each other to determine the distance between the pairing initiator device and the pairing responder device. Based on the distance being below a threshold distance, the pairing initiator device and the pairing responder device wirelessly pair with each other without further input from the user.
