  • Patent number: 10232997
    Abstract: A food container system is disclosed that includes a food container lid. The lid has a beverage container coupling structure that removably attaches to a beverage container. The beverage container coupling structure circumscribes a footprint of the lid. The lid also has a drink-hole surface within the lid footprint and an annular surface above the beverage container coupling structure and within the lid footprint. The annular surface is connected to the drink-hole planar surface and includes food container coupling structure that removably attaches to a second food container. A food compartment is formed from a food compartment inner wall extending from the annular surface, and a bottom connected to the food compartment inner wall. The lid also includes a drink hole extending through the drink-hole surface.

  • Patent number: 9628279
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide techniques and devices for protecting application secrets from operating system attacks. In some examples, applications execute with an isolated user mode of a secure execution environment, while relying on an operating system executing within a separate execution environment for resource management and system services. A proxy kernel can control access by the operating system to data associated with the secure execution environment. Further, the proxy kernel can act as a transparent interface between isolated user mode applications and the operating system during the provision of resource management and system services.

  • Patent number: 5475815
    Abstract: An apparatus for efficiently testing a plurality of memory devices at the board level. The logic for the present invention is minimal and can be placed on a controller chip within the board design. In addition, the interconnect lines between the controller chip and each of the plurality of memory devices can also be tested. Finally, the present invention requires minimal setup time and performs a functional test of the memories in a very short period of time.

  • Patent number: 5471482
    Abstract: A method for comprehensively testing embedded RAM devices and a means for detecting if any of the cells within the embedded RAM devices have a slow write recovery time. The preferred mode of the present invention utilizes built-in self-test (BIST) techniques for testing the embedded RAM's within a VLSI device. In accordance with the present invention, a modified 5N march test sequence is performed on the embedded RAM devices. The modified 5N March test sequence is a simple algorithm implemented in programmable hardware that has the capability of ensuring that the embedded RAM devices are functional and that they meet the recovery time requirements. The preferred mode of the present invention uses this algorithm to determine if the embedded RAMs are operating properly before the VLSI devices are used in card assembly. However, this method can also be used after card assembly to monitor the embedded RAM's integrity.
