  • Patent number: 10416891
    Abstract: Systems and methods for transitioning and updating machine instructions from a first system with an older/initial component(s) to a second system or platform with one or more different components and new or modified operations or functions are provided. Embodiments enable improved obsolescence/configuration management and customization of the older/initial system's machine instructions (MI) to a target application/platform with new or modified capabilities. One exemplary system enables processing binary tape tracks for linear flash media over a universal serial bus (USB) to a personal computer (PC) card interface. User interfaces are provided for editing MIs to insert/modify functions or capabilities of obsolete MIs, e.g. binary tape tracks that are customized for a system with obsolete component(s) (e.g. tape drive), transferring data to/from a newer component (e.g. a linear flash media).

  • Patent number: 8213547
    Abstract: A system and method to detect a signal of interest. In one embodiment, the system comprises a memory including a first parameter value, a second parameter value, a third parameter value and a program to identify active video values and null values in a first plurality of signals including the signal of interest. The system includes an interface portion adapted to receive a second plurality of signals based upon power levels of a first plurality of signals. The signal of interest is detectable based on the first, second and third parameter values.
