Publication number: 20150181299Abstract: A deployment and distribution model improves content delivery with a business incentive for placement of kiosks with one or more wireless access points in public locations so that portable media players (PMPs) can receive media content (e.g., audio, video, text, haptic content, etc.). In addition, coordination between subscribing users of PMPs, vendors who provide kiosks, and a network central controller of a content distribution system allow for prepositioning of video content at the kiosks through economically desirable low data rate communication links from the network (e.g., dial-up modem, DSL, etc.); coordinated queuing of downloads (e.g., partial downloads) between kiosk to PMP, peer-to-peer (P2P) downloading between PMPs, and uploads from PMP to kiosk; billing/crediting to correspond with such participation in the distribution; and changing priority/selection of prepositioning of content at kiosks to reflect a clientele profile.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 18, 2015Publication date: June 25, 2015Inventors: Peter Hans Rauber, Matthew Stuart Grob, Baaziz Achour, Brian K.

Patent number: 7907531Abstract: Apparatus, methods, processors and machine readable media for verifying the integrity of firmware on a wireless device. Aspects include generating a verification scheme for testing the integrity of firmware on a wireless device and transmitting the verification scheme to the wireless device. The wireless device applies the verification scheme to the firmware and obtains a verification test result, which is forwarded for analysis. An analyzer compares the generated verification test result with a predetermined test result to obtain an integrity determination that indicates the integrity of the firmware. In some aspects, control commands to change an operational characteristic of the wireless device may be generated based on the integrity determination.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2005Date of Patent: March 15, 2011Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Sanjay K.

Publication number: 20100058377Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and computer program products are provided for an improved media content rating system. The rating system herein disclosed is highly-granular in nature, in that, the rating system allows for ratings to be based on the number of times that portions, segments, clips of the media file are played or otherwise executed, as opposed to basing the media content rating solely on the number of times that the media file is played. In this regard, the aspects herein described may further provide for ratings of the portions, segments, clips of the media content as opposed to limiting the rating to a rating for the overall media content file.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2008Publication date: March 4, 2010Applicant: Qualcomm IncorporatedInventors: Matthew S.

Patent number: 6615341Abstract: A digital signal processor (DSP) employs a variable-length instruction set. A portion of the variable-length instructions may be stored in adjacent locations within memory space with the beginning and ending of instructions occurring across memory word boundaries. The instructions may contain variable numbers of instruction fragments. Each instruction fragment causes a particular operation, or operations, to be performed allowing multiple operations during each clock cycle. The DSP includes multiple data buses, and in particular three data buses. The DSP may also use a register bank that has registers accessible by at least two processing units, allowing multiple operations to be performed on a particular set of data by the multiple processing units, without reading and writing the data to and from a memory. an instruction fetch unit that receives instructions of variable length stored in an instruction memory. An instruction memory may advantageously be separate from the three data memories.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2001Date of Patent: September 2, 2003Assignee: Qualcomm, Inc.Inventors: Gilbert C.

Patent number: 5854565Abstract: The present invention is a novel and improved method and apparatus for implementing a latch within an integrated circuit. Data is stored on a storage node via the application of either a first or second state logic source applied through a feedback inverter that maintains the storage node at a particular logic state. During logic transitions from a first state to a second state the storage node is decoupled from the first state logic source via the use of a gating circuit, and the new logic level is applied to the storage node. During logic transitions from the second state to the first state the storage node remains coupled to the second state logic source. The coupling and decoupling of the storage node from the first state logic source is performed via the use of a clock signal that has a non-overlapping cycle with respect to a second clock signal that is used to control the transitions of the state of the latch.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 1997Date of Patent: December 29, 1998Assignee: Qualcomm IncorporatedInventors: Sanjay K.
