Abstract: Operating table (100) comprising a load sensor assembly (102) having multiple load sensors for measuring at least one variable from which a load acting on the load sensor assembly (102) can be determined, wherein the load sensor assembly (102) is arranged between at least two parts of the operating table (100), and wherein the at least two parts are substantially non movable in relation to one another. The load sensors may be arranged in a shared common plane. Output from the sensors can be used to prevent tipping or overloading of the operating table or portions of the operating table.

Abstract: A method for operating a control device, which has at least one arithmetic logic unit in which at least one real-time domain and at least one application domain are provided. An application is distributed over the at least one real-time domain and the at least one application domain.

Abstract: A system, security domain and method for providing a security execution environment for security-relevant, domain-specific applications in a virtualized system.

Abstract: A method for protecting a working memory, including the following features:—memory areas of the working memory are optionally assigned to a first class or a second class; prior to a program execution, at least the memory areas of the first class are entered into a configuration table of the memory protection unit; and when access to a destination area among the memory areas of the second class is requested during the program execution, the destination area is entered into the configuration table before the access is granted.

Abstract: A circuit arrangement for a data processing system is configured to process data in multiple modules. The circuit arrangement is configured to provide a clock as well as a time base and/or a base of at least one further physical quantity for each of the multiple modules. The circuit arrangement also comprises a central routing unit, which is connected to several of the multiple modules. Via the central routing unit, the modules can periodically exchange data based on the time base and/or on the base of the at least one further physical quantity. The several modules are configured to process data independently of and in parallel to other modules of the several modules.

Abstract: A circuit arrangement for a data processing system is configured to process data in a plurality of modules. The circuit arrangement is configured such that each module is provided with at least one clock pulse, a time base and a base of at least one additional physical variable. The circuit arrangement also comprises a central routing unit to which the plurality of modules are coupled and via which the plurality of modules can periodically exchange data amongst themselves, based on the time base and/or the base of other physical variables. Each module is configured independently and parallel to other modules of the plurality of modules in order to process data. The circuit arrangement is employed in a corresponding method.
