Abstract: Systems, methods and machine-readable media for providing a security service are disclosed. The methods include receiving a modification of the application object code to allow the software application to transmit a request for the security service; retrieving the modified application object code corresponding to the software application from memory; receiving, via a processor, the request for the security service from the modified application object code; and providing, via the processor, the security service. The systems and machine-readable media performing operations according to the methods disclosed.

Abstract: A method of enabling content distribution for various electronic devices which comprises providing a content adaptive application for an electronic device, wherein the content adaptive application is designed to parse an abstraction schema to retrieve data or a data source, and format information. The content adaptive application further formats the data or data from the data source into at least one of a plurality of platform specific templates specified by the format information and displays at least one platform specific template including at least a portion of the data or data from the data source on a display of the electronic device.

Abstract: A display controller system is controlled to provide a display surface zoom using hardware scaling from user input at the operating system, application program or hardware level. User input defining coordinates of a frame portion within a frame buffer memory is obtained, and a resolution of the zoom display device is determined. An aspect ratio of the zoom portion defined by the user input is adjusted to correspond to the zoom display device resolution. The display controller system is programmed to implement the display surface zoom to provide a full screen view of the zoom portion on the zoom display device. In the display controller system, the zoom portion of the frame buffer memory is scaled, converted into a display signal and output.
