  • Publication number: 20240115958
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of synchronizing an online game, and a server device, that do not require centralized information management, reduce the processing burden on each device during online communication, and allow for continuation of processing in an offline environment. A method, according to the present disclosure, of synchronizing an online game that allows for transmission and reception of information related to game processing between a first client terminal and a second client terminal via a server includes: receiving, from the first client terminal connected online, first information related to game processing on the first client terminal; determining whether the first information is information that determines a game status; and storing the first information on the server and transmitting the first information to the second client terminal when the first information is determined to be information that determines the game status.

  • Patent number: 10055589
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for validating a vehicle component. The system includes a vehicle electronic control unit (ECU) in electronic communication with a power unit via a communications bus. The vehicle ECU is configured to detect an electronic connection between the vehicle ECU and the power unit and transmit a power start up signal to the power unit when the power unit is authenticated to start up. The power unit is authenticated to start up when a power unit start-up program passcode stored in a memory of the vehicle ECU matches a predetermined ECU passcode. The vehicle ECU is configured to erase the power unit start-up program passcode from the memory when the power unit is disconnected from the communications bus. The vehicle ECU is configured to re-authenticate the power unit to start up when a new power unit start-up program passcode is stored in the memory that matches another predetermined ECU passcode.
