Abstract: A device implementing notification based provisioning of card accounts may include at least one processor configured to receive, from a service provider, an indication of a card account of a user, and to determine whether the card account is eligible to be added to a first device of the user for use in a wireless transaction system. The at least one processor is further configured to, when the card account is determined to be eligible to be added to the first device, transmit a notification to the first device for display, the notification indicating that the card account is eligible to be added to the first device for use in the transaction system, and initiate provisioning, on a secure element of the first device, of an applet corresponding to the card account when an approval for adding the card account to the first device is received responsive to the notification.

In one example, a graphics processing unit (GPU) is configured to access a memory according to one of an unsecure mode and a secure mode. The GPU may include a memory access controller configured to direct memory transactions from at least one hardware unit of the GPU to an unsecure memory unit or a secure memory unit based on the unsecure mode or secure mode and a resource descriptor associated with a memory resource.

Abstract: A method of conducting a diagnostic procedure for a braking system includes analyzing via an electronic control unit whether only a first input device is engaged or only a second input device is engaged, conducting a first diagnostic test if only the first input device is engaged, and conducting a second diagnostic test if only the second input device is engaged.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to deferred preemption techniques for scheduling graphics processing unit (GPU) command streams for execution on a GPU. A host CPU is described that is configured to control a GPU to perform deferred-preemption scheduling. For example, a host CPU may select one or more locations in a GPU command stream as being one or more locations at which preemption is allowed to occur in response to receiving a preemption notification, and may place one or more tokens in the GPU command stream based on the selected one or more locations. The tokens may indicate to the GPU that preemption is allowed to occur at the selected one or more locations. This disclosure further describes a GPU configured to preempt execution of a GPU command stream based on one or more tokens placed in a GPU command stream.

Abstract: A device comprising a graphics processing unit (GPU) includes a memory and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to: receive a GPU command packet that indicates the GPU may select between a direct rendering mode or a binning rendering mode for a portion of a frame to be rendered by the GPU, determine whether to use the direct rendering mode or the binning rendering mode for the portion of the frame to be rendered by the GPU based on at least one of: information in the received command packet or a state of the GPU, and render the portion of the frame using the determined direct rendering mode or the binning rendering mode.

Abstract: A device facilitating script deployment through service provider servers includes at least one processor configured to receive, from a service provider, a request to perform a transaction directly with a device secure element on which a credential is provisioned, where the request includes a credential identifier corresponding to the credential. The at least one processor is further configured to identify, based at least in part on the credential identifier, the device secure element. The at least one processor is further configured to verify that the service provider is authorized to interact directly with the device secure element. The at least one processor is further configured to instruct, responsive to the verifying, the device secure element to communicate directly with a service provider server to perform the transaction. The at least one processor is further configured to receive, from the device secure element, a result associated with the transaction.

Abstract: A content request communication, e.g., generated using a first processor of a device, can be transmitted to a web server. A response communication including content identifying a first value can be received from the web server. The first processor can facilitate presentation of the content on a first display of the device. A communication can be received at a second processor of the device from a remote server. The communication can include data representing a second value and can be generated at the remote server using information received from the web server. Further, the second processor can produce a secure verification output that can be presented on a separate, second display, representing at least the second value. The presentation on first display can at least partially overlap in time with the presentation on the second display.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for compressing a graphical state object. In one example, a central processing unit may be configured to receive, for output to the GPU, a set of instructions to render a scene. Responsive to receiving the set of instructions to render the scene, the central processing unit may be further configured to determine whether the set of instructions includes a state object that is registered as corresponding to an identifier. Responsive to determining that the set of instructions includes the state object that is registered as corresponding to the identifier, the central processing unit may be further configured to output, to the GPU, the identifier that is registered as corresponding to the state object.

Abstract: Systems and methods for validating and applying modifications to a policy control function (PCF) of a station. The methods include generating a PCF package including a modification to a POE, and determining whether the PCF package is to be transmitted to the station by a first or second entity. The methods further include when the PCF package is to be transmitted by the first entity, including a first signature of the first entity in a deliverer field of the PCF package, and when the PCF package is to be transmitted by the second entity, including the first signature in an owner field and a second signature of the second entity in the deliverer field. The methods further include receiving the PCF package from the first or second entity, determining whether the PCF package is valid, and applying the modification to the PCF when it is determined the PCF package is valid.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for managing secure transactions between electronic devices and service providers.

The TFC may convert the retrieved graphics data from the second data format to the first data format. The TFC may store the converted graphics data in the first data format into a memory that is accessible by the at least one processor.
