  • Patent number: 11593512
    Abstract: Described herein are a secure system for sharing private data and related systems and methods for incentivizing and validating private data sharing. In some embodiments, private data providers may register to selectively share private data under controlled sharing conditions. The private data may be cryptographically secured using encryption information corresponding to one or more secure execution environments. To demonstrate to the private data providers that the secure execution environment is secure and trustworthy, attestations demonstrating the security of the secure execution environment may be stored in a distributed ledger (e.g., a public blockchain). Private data users that want access to shared private data may publish applications for operating on the private data to a secure execution environment and publish, in a distributed ledger, an indication that the application is available to receive private data.

  • Publication number: 20050154988
    Abstract: The efficient and intuitive presentation, navigation, and selection of available AV information in a graphical user interface (GUI) that is displayed on a display apparatus of an AV system and controlled through user manipulation of a scrolling mechanism of a navigation and selection device of the AV system. Related AV information is organized as items within lists that correspond to various navigable fields of a status bar of the GUI during the GUI interactive mode. A highlighted navigable field of the status bar displays its list of related AV information and the items of the list are scrolled through the navigable field by a user causing the scrolling mechanism to move in a scroll. A different field of the status bar may be selected by the user moving the scrolling mechanism in a lateral movement.
