A method of providing data to a wireless information device, in which data supplied from a remote service provider is represented by an icon which is (a) automatically displayed within an application running on the device, and which (b) changes if the data alters, in order to alert the user to new data or to represent that new data. For example, a weather icon could be displayed in a calendar application if the device is being supplied or can access weather data. The weather icon changes dynamically to represent the weather on the particular day in the calendar; perhaps tomorrow's predicated weather

A method and system for ensuring data integrity in a data processing system may comprise monitoring when data for a specified device is available for error correction code generation, and receiving a first indication of the specified device, a second indication of the data, and a third indication of a size of the data during the monitoring. A new error correction code may be generated in hardware for the data based on the indicated size of the data and an indication may be provided to signal when generation of the new error correction code for a specified number of accesses for at least a portion of the data is complete. Detected errors may be corrected in software based on the newly generated error correction code. The first indication may be a device selection signal and the error correction code generation may be enabled or disabled via an enable signal.

The disclosed embodiments provide a system that ensures the integrity of a downloaded data set. During operation, a browser application executing on a computing device receives a data set that was signed using the private key of a host computer. The browser application stores this signed data set in a browser data store. Subsequently, the browser application also receives a public key from the host computer (e.g., while accessing a web page associated with the signed data set). The browser application ensures the integrity of the data set by executing scripted program code that: uses the public key to decode the signature for the data set; calculates a hash value for the signed data set; and compares the decoded signature with the hash value to validate the data set.

The evaluating device includes a comparator for pair-wise comparison of the respective generated output signals with each other. The comparator also outputs a comparison signal corresponding to the respective comparison of the output signals.

A FlexRay communication module for coupling a FlexRay communication connection to a subscriber, associated with the FlexRay communication module, in a FlexRay network over which messages are transferred, the FlexRay communication module including a first assemblage for storing at least a portion of the transferred messages, and a second assemblage for connecting the first assemblage to the subscriber, and a third assemblage for connecting the FlexRay communication connection to the first assemblage.

A cluster of computer system nodes share direct read/write access to storage devices via a storage area network using a cluster filesystem. During relocation of a server for a distributed name service and recovery of a cluster, entries related to the distributed name service for filesystems is updated. During relocation, a new server for a filesystem informs all nodes in the cluster of the new server's location. During recovery, a process executing on each node deletes entries related to the distributed name service for any filesystem that does not have a server in the recovering cluster.

The invention relates to a method for automatically establishing an Ethernet communication safety rule. The steps are as follows: 1, a safety device is connected to a network; 2, the safety device acquires a data packet in the Ethernet passively; 3, the safety device sends the acquired data packet to a protocol analysis module; 4, the protocol analysis module analyzes the content of the data packet, acquires information of the type of a communication protocol, and determines whether the communication protocol is an industrial communication protocol or not; 5, if the communication protocol is the industrial communication protocol, key information in the data packet is analyzed and extracted; 6, the extracted information is sent to a rule auxiliary generation guide module; and 7, the rule auxiliary generation guide module receives the information and forms the safety rule after judging the information is complete. The method provided by the invention form the safety rule according to data information in actual communication, enables setting of the safety rule to be targeted, not missing and convenient for labor saving, and ensures the real-time performance of transmission and the integrity of data in an industrial network.

A method and apparatus is presented for performing a sequence-level CRC calculation on fiber channel communications within a switching platform domain. A CRC generator searches the data communication for frames that contain the type of data for which a sequence-level CRC is desired, such as for a sequence containing SCSI data. If found, and the type of data allows multiple frames per sequence, the present invention creates a CRC value for the sequence. An intermediate CRC value is stored in a queue to allow the simultaneous calculation of sequence level CRC values for multiple frames. With inbound data, the sequence-level CRC is appended to the end of the sequence data. With outbound data, the calculated value is compared with the appended, expected value, With single-frame fiber channel protocols, the frame-level CRC value is obtained directly from the frames entering the switching platform domain. This value is placed in a local queue, from which it is appended to the data payload by a processor for transmission within the switching platform. When the single frame is leaving the switching platform domain, the flow of data leaving the switching platform domain is monitored and the frame-level CRC value calculated by the fiber channel controller is replaced with the original frame-level CRC value.

A data transmitting method for a memory controller is provided. A host system executes threads to transmit commands through a human interface device (HID) interface. The method includes: receiving a command packet from the host system; executing an operation corresponding to a command according to the command packet to generate responding data, which is divided into at least one responding data packet by the memory controller; transmitting a responding packet and the responding data packet to the host system by the memory controller; determining if one of the at least one responding data packet is lost according to the responding packet by the host system; if a responding data packet is lost, transmitting a retransmitting packet to the memory controller by the host system to request the memory controller to retransmit the lost responding data packet. Accordingly, the data transmission amount is improved, and the integrity of data is ensured.

A method for processing a bad block in a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) is presented, which is characterized by a software RAID constructed by a scale computer interface disk, and adapted to backup data in a bad block in the software RAID. The method includes invoking an access error program to intercept an access instruction for a data block in the software RAID when the data block is a bad block; searching a disk number and a logical block address of the data block in the software RAID according to the access instruction; selecting the scale computer interface disk; and mapping data stored in the data block, the disk number, and the logical block address to a reserved local memory of the scale computer interface disk. Through the above steps, the data in the bad block can be mapped to a normal block, thus maintaining the data integrity.

The present invention provides a high speed bit stream data conversion circuit that includes input ports to receive first bit streams at a first bit rate. Data conversion circuits receive the first bit streams and produce second bit stream(s), wherein the number and bit rate of the first and second bit stream(s) differ. Symmetrical pathways transport the first bit streams from the input ports to the data conversion circuits, wherein their transmission time(s) are substantially equal. A clock distribution circuit receives and symmetrically distributes a clock signal to data conversion circuits. A central trunk coupled to the clock port and located between a first pair of circuit pathways with paired branches that extend from the trunk and that couple to the data conversion circuits make up the clock distribution circuit. The distributed data clock signal latches data in data conversion circuits from the first to the second bit stream(s).
