Biometric data, which may be suitably transformed are obtained from a biometric input device contained within a stand-alone computer or a mobile device, which may contain an ASIC chip connected to or incorporated within the stand-alone computer or mobile device and which includes the capability for capturing one or more biometric samples and for biometric feature extraction, matching and encryption. For extra security, the biometric matching is used in conjunction with a PIN to authenticate the user to the stand-alone computer or mobile device. The biometric template and other sensitive data residing on the mobile device are encrypted using hardware elements of the mobile device (or the ASIC) together with the PIN hash and/or the Password hash. An obfuscated version of the Password, stored on the ASIC or the mobile device is de-obfuscated and released to the mobile device authentication mechanism, including a Trusted Platform Module if present, in response to a successfully decrypted template and matching biometric sample and PIN. A de-obfuscated password is used to authenticate the user to the mobile device and the same or a different de-obfuscated password may be used to authenticate the user to a remote computer using the SSL/TLS or a process based upon a symmetric encryption algorithm. The locally generated password may be used to encrypt data at rest on the mobile device or ASIC and the remote authentication password may be used to encrypt data in transit to and from a remote computer. This creates a trusted relationship between the stand-alone computer or mobile device and the remote computer. The system also eliminates the need for the user to remember and enter complex passwords on the mobile device or for secure transmission of data. A similar method may be used, with the signature/sign biometric modality to determine whether the holder of an IC chip card is, in fact the card owner.

A multi-processor arrangement having an interprocessor communication path between each of every possible pair of processors, in addition to I/O paths to and from the arrangement, having signal processing functions configurably embedded in series with the communication paths and/or the I/O paths. Each processor is provided with a local memory which can be accessed by the local processor as well as by the other processors via the communications paths. This allows for efficient data movement from one processor's local memory to another processor's local memory, such as commonly done during signal processing corner turning operations. The configurable signal processing logic may be configured to host one or more signal processing functions to allow data to be processed prior to its deposit into local memory.

Systems and methods for message-based advertising in a wireless communications network are described. A digital message is contained in a data packet set in transit from a terminal of a sender to a terminal of a recipient. At least one of the terminals is implemented as a mobile telephone. The digital message is received through a network connection. A processor determines a context for the digital message and matches the message context to content of advertisements stored in an advertisement database in order to identify at least one relevant advertisement. The data packet set is transmitted to the terminal of the recipient. A processor retrieves the relevant advertisement(s) from the advertisement database and generates a confirmation message containing a delivery status of the data packet set. The confirmation message includes the relevant advertisement and is transmitted to the terminal of the sender.

A method and apparatus for a multi-function direct memory access core are described. In one embodiment, the method includes the reading of a direct memory access (DMA) descriptor having associated DMA data to identify at least one micro-command. Once the micro-command is identified, the DMA data is processed according to the micro-command during DMA transfer of the data. In one embodiment, a DMA engine performs an operation on the DMA data in transit within the DMA controller according to the identified micro-command. Hence, by defining a primitive set of micro-commands, the DMA engine within, for example, an input/output (I/O) controller hub (ICH), can be used to perform a large number of complex operations on data when data is passing through the ICH without introducing latency into the DMA transfer. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

In a coding system, input data within a system is encoded. The input data might include sequences of symbols that repeat in the input data or occur in other input data encoded in the system. The encoding includes determining a target segment size, determining a window size, identifying a fingerprint within a window of symbols at an offset in the input data, determining whether the offset is to be designated as a cut point and segmenting the input data as indicated by the set of cut points. For each segment so identified, the encoder determines whether the segment is to be a referenced segment or an unreferenced segment, replacing the segment data of each referenced segment with a reference label and storing a reference binding in a persistent segment store for each referenced segment, if needed. Hierarchically, the process can be repeated by grouping references into groups, replacing the grouped references with a group label, storing a binding between the grouped references and group label, if one is not already present, and repeating the process. The number of levels of hierarchy can be fixed in advanced or it can be determined from the content encoded.

For that purpose, a sequence code indicating the sequence number of a packet in a series of packet transfer is set in an address field of a packet of data transfer.
