The present disclosure provides systems and methods for mobile application security classification and enforcement. In particular, the present invention includes a method, a mobile device, and a distributed security system (e.g., a “cloud”) that is utilized to enforce security on mobile devices communicatively coupled to external networks (i.e., the Internet). Advantageously, the present invention is platform independent allowing it to operate with any current or emerging mobile device. Specifically, preventing malicious applications from running on an end user's mobile device is challenging with potentially millions of applications and billions of user devices; the only effective way to enforce application security is through the network that applications use to communicate.

The present invention provides a distributed clustering method to allow multiple active instances of consistency management processes that apply the same encoding scheme to be cooperative and function collectively.

The technique can be applied on many forms of distributed persistent data stores to provide failure resiliency and to maintain data consistency and correctness.

An efficient method for compressing sampled analog signals in real time, without loss, or at a user-specified rate or distortion level, is described. The present invention is particularly effective for compressing and decompressing high-speed, bandlimited analog signals that are not appropriately or effectively compressed by prior art speech, audio, image, and video compression algorithms due to various limitations of such prior art compression solutions. The present invention's preprocessor apparatus measures one or more signal parameters and, under program control, appropriately modifies the preprocessor input signal to create one or more preprocessor output signals that are more effectively compressed by a follow-on compressor. In many instances, the follow-on compressor operates most effectively when its input signal is at baseband. The compressor creates a stream of compressed data tokens and compression control parameters that represent the original sampled input signal using fewer bits. The decompression subsystem uses a decompressor to decompress the stream of compressed data tokens and compression control parameters. After decompression, the decompressor output signal is processed by a post-processor, which reverses the operations of the preprocessor during compression, generating a postprocessed signal that exactly matches (during lossless compression) or approximates (during lossy compression) the original sampled input signal. Parallel processing implementations of both the compression and decompression subsystems are described that can operate at higher sampling rates when compared to the sampling rates of a single compression or decompression subsystem. In addition to providing the benefits of real-time compression and decompression to a new, general class of sampled data users who previously could not obtain benefits from compression, the present invention also enhances the performance of test and measurement equipment (oscilloscopes, signal generators, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, etc.), busses and networks carrying sampled data, and data converters (A/D and D/A converters).

Channel doping is an effective method for controlling Vth, but if Vth shifts to the order of -4 to -3 V when forming circuits such as a CMOS circuit formed from both an n-channel TFT and a P-channel TFT on the same substrate, then it is difficult to control the Vth of both TFTs with one channel dope. In order to solve the above problem, the present invention forms a blocking layer on the back channel side, which is a laminate of a silicon oxynitride film (A) manufactured from SiH4, NH3, and N2O, and a silicon oxynitride film (B)manufactured from SiH4and N2O. By making this silicon oxynitride film laminate structure, contamination by alkaline metallic elements from the substrate can be prevented, and influence by stresses, caused by internal stress, imparted to the TFT can be relieved.

Systems, apparatus and methods that allow external infusion, IV or administration pumps to be synchronized with the internal pumps for a medical fluid therapy machine are provided. The system reduces the time and effort needed to calculate, set-up, enter and maintain flowrates of various fluids, maintained internally or externally with respect to the medical fluid therapy machine. The system also automatically follows therapy requirements, for example, a requirement that one pump/fluid be running/flowing for another pump/fluid to be enabled to run/flow. The system further automatically adjusts for variations in flowrate of one fluid with respect to another. In short, the system provides a more “hands-off”, safe and effective method and apparatus for medical fluid therapy fluid delivery.

Generally, the present invention provides a variable thickness gate oxide anti-fuse transistor device that can be employed in a non-volatile, one-time-programmable (OTP) memory array application. The anti-fuse transistor can be fabricated with standard CMOS technology, and is configured as a standard transistor element having a source diffusion, gate oxide, polysilicon gate and optional drain diffusion. The variable gate oxide underneath the polysilicon gate consists of a thick gate oxide region and a thin gate oxide region, where the thin gate oxide region acts as a localized breakdown voltage zone. A conductive channel between the polysilicon gate and the channel region can be formed in the localized breakdown voltage zone during a programming operation. In a memory array application, a wordline read current applied to the polysilicon gate can be sensed through a bitline connected to the source diffusion, via the channel of the anti-fuse transistor. More specifically, the present invention provides an effective method for utilizing split channel MOS structures as an anti-fuse cell suitable for OTP memories.

A metastasis treatment is implemented in the event that metastases are present. In the event that no metastases are present, a tumor treatment based on the aforementioned image information generated is implemented.

An efficient method and apparatus for storing and retrieving memory ranges is disclosed. A key range that is stored or to be stored is associated with a node in the tree hierarchy encompassing the entire memory address space.

A distributed computing system, having a sufficient number of devices and requiring a sufficiently large number of devices to select any proposal, can maintain synchronization between its constituent devices and respond to client requests with as few as two message delays. A leader can synchronize the devices of the system and establish a safe proposal number for all current and future steps of the system. Devices can then receive client requests directly, treating the request as a proposal having the proposal number determined previously by the leader, and voting for the proposal. If the client receives an indication from a least a quorum of devices, where a quorum can be the minimum number of devices that can be operational at a given time, the client can know that the request was selected. If two or more clients attempt to request different functions at approximately the same time, the system may not select either request, in which case a leader can be requested to determine if any requests may have been selected, and to reestablish a safe proposal number. Systems with fewer devices can also implement the message-delay-reducing algorithm if they can also revert to the standard Paxos algorithm if an insufficient number of devices are operational. Such algorithms can be used to provide an efficient method for determining whether to commit or abort a client transaction.
