  • Publication number: 20230047428
    Abstract: A method for authentication between a control module and a lighting module for a motor vehicle, in which at least one of the two modules is a transmitter module, the other being a receiver module, the two modules comprising a unit for transmitting/receiving data and being linked by a data communication channel that enables the modules to exchange data. The method including transmitting of data describing at least one authentication factor from the transmitter module to the receiver module, verification of the authentication factor by means of a calculation unit, and abandoning communication, in the receiver module, with the transmitter module if the verification fails, or otherwise continuing communication.

  • Patent number: 10127628
    Abstract: Methods and systems configured to virtualize graphic processing services in a virtual machine environment are disclosed. A virtual machine monitor (VMM) may be configured to maintain a virtual machine (VM) based on a host operating system (OS) executing in the system. The VM may contain a virtualized graphics library (vGLib) configured to support a graphic command from an application executing in the VM. The host OS may contain a graphics library (GLib) configured to support the graphic command and utilize a graphics processing unit (GPU) in the system to process the graphic command. Upon receiving the graphic command from the application, the vGLib may be configured to allocate a memory section in the VM to store the graphic command. And the VMM may be further configured to share access to the memory section with the host OS, thereby allowing the host OS to retrieve the graphic command from the memory section and deliver the graphic command to the GLib for processing.
