Patents by Inventor Gideon Andreas Yuval

Gideon Andreas Yuval has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9135620
    Abstract: The claimed subject matter provides systems and/or methods that effectuates and establishes mobile device security. The system can include devices that detect point of sale mechanisms or secure token devices and based at least in part on the detection of secure token devices the system effectuates release of electronic funds persisted on a mobile device in order to satisfy a debt accrued at the point of sale mechanism.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 8, 2008
    Date of Patent: September 15, 2015
    Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLC
    Inventors: Yuqun Chen, Gideon Andreas Yuval, Michael Jack Sinclair

  • Patent number: 6292934
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for determining an optimal placement order for basic blocks within a computer program to improve locality of reference and reduce the working set of the computer program. By reducing the working set, the computer program requires less memory than it normally would require to execute on a computer system. The optimal placement order for basic blocks within a computer program reflects the concurrency of usage for basic blocks during execution of the computer program. The method for determining an optimal placement order includes analyzing the computer program to identify all of the basic blocks, determining how many times each basic block is executed, assigning a placement order to each basic block depending upon how many times each basic block was executed, and reordering the basic blocks according to their assigned placement orders to produce an optimized computer program.
