Abstract: Specialized hardware functions for high assurance processing are seldom integrated into commodity processors. Furthermore, as chips increase in complexity, trustworthy processing of sensitive information can become increasingly difficult to achieve due to extensive on-chip resource sharing and the lack of corresponding protection mechanisms. Embodiments in accordance with the invention allow for enhanced security of commodity integrated circuits, using minor modifications, in conjunction with a separate integrated circuit that can provide monitoring, access control, and other useful security functions. In one embodiment, a separate control plane, stacked using 3-D integration technology, allows for the function and economics of specialized security mechanisms, not available from a coprocessor alone, to be integrated with the underlying commodity computing hardware.

Abstract: An internet presentation system includes an internet accessible server that permits access to a database of editable and executable presentation files to select users with a specific type of periphery device. The periphery device, or projector, includes a hardware ID used by the server to authenticate the user. The server additionally maintains an administration mode by which select administrators may create and edit template files and color scheme files required, but not editable, by the select users. The server also maintain statistic of the select users and their activities. The administrators use the statistics to target template and color scheme files for deletion and editing.

Abstract: An internet presentation system includes an internet accessible server that permits access to a database of editable and executable presentation files to select users with a specific type of periphery device. The periphery device, or projector, includes a hardware ID used by the server to authenticate the user, and to update driver information for the periphery device. The server additionally maintains an administration mode by which select administrators may group and restrict the select users to specific groups of presentation files. The administrators also create and edit template files and color scheme files required, but not editable, by the select users. The server also maintain statistic of the select users and their activities. The administrators use the statistics to target template and color scheme files for deletion and editing.
