Information about avatar characteristics for a user are stored in a removable memory card (115), for example in a SIM card for the GSM system. The information regarding the avatar can then be moved from one access terminal to another. A virtual world, which the avatar is designed to enter, can then be accessed from many different access terminals by means of inserting the SIM card and entering a personal identity number (PIN) code. Thus by adding such a memory function to a removable memory card (e.g. a SIM card or a Smart card), besides of making it possible to access a virtual world from different access terminals, also makes it possible to use avatars in new applications, such as in a GSM phone or another mobile phone or terminal.

A memory address translation and related control system for performing the dual functions of converting virtual memory addresses generated by the CPU into real memory addresses in a highly efficient and versatile manner and for controlling certain memory functions such as journalling. The address translation function comprises two steps, the first comprising converting the virtual address into a second virtual address or an effective address and finally the step of converting the effective address into a real memory address. The first step utilizes a set of special registers addressable by a small field to the CPU generated virtual address which converts the virtual address into an expanded form. The second or effective address is then used as the subject of the second or address translation step. To greatly enhance the translation of frequently used virtual addresses, a special set of translation tables referred to herein as a Translation Look-Aside, Buffer (TLB) contain current effective to real address translations for use where frequently referenced addresses are requested. The TLBs are addressed using a subset of the effective address whereupon the contents of the addressed TLB is examined for a match with the effective address. If the addresses match a successful address translation is possible and the real address stored in the address field of the TLB is available for system use. If the desired effective address is not present in the TLB, the page frame tables stored in main memory are accessed and searched for the desired effective address and if found the associated real address is accessed. Further a special data field is provided in both the TLBs and the page frame tables in main memory wherein a bit is provided for each line in the referenced page at a given effective to real address translation which bits may be used to indicate when a line of data has been accessed or altered.

In general the present invention provides for a small hand held size device that is easily kept in a pocket or purse or on a key chain. The security token will contain a microprocessor having memory function and will connect to a PC or other computing device or workstation via a USB port. Upon insertion into the open USB port of the user's remote computer, the personal network security token scans the remote computer to detect the presence of at least one or more operating applications, such as the type of anti-virus software and patch level and/or the type of operating system (OS) the remote computer is running and the patch level. Upon contacting the target network, the network will send an inquiry to the user's remote computer to determine if the personal network security token is present as well as other parameters. If the condition status of the token is “OK” then the network sends an authentication page to the user for the user to enter his or her user ID and password. If the ID and password are valid, then the user is allowed access to the network.
