Then the platform library reads information from an access control file of the security element. After this, the platform library obtains an access code for the security element from a user according to the access control file information, and inputs the obtained access code and the command to the security element. An action is performed according to the command in the security element, if the access code is approved by the security element.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for implementing data transmission between at least two sets of software used in one or more devices. The devices are capable of establishing a connection to a data transmission system. The communication between the devices takes place using service requests that include information on an address of a service provider. A name server of the arrangement maintains a list of sets of software providing and needing different services and their addresses. The name servers are arranged to search the data transmission system for other name servers and to exchange information concerning the sets of software needing a service and providing a service when they find a new name server.

Abstract: A new and unique method and apparatus are provided for communicating information between two nodes, points or terminals in a wireless local area network (WLAN) environment or other suitable network environment, featuring one or more steps for creating an association between multicast transmission scheduling and multicast internet protocol (IP) and ethernet addresses within a multicast transmission period, and mapping multicast transmission start times using the multicast IP or ethernet address information. The apparatus may take the form of a wireless local area network (WLAN) or other suitable network having the two nodes or points that communicate information between the same based on the association and mapping, as well as the first or second node, point or terminal in such a wireless local area network (WLAN) environment, or other suitable network environment. The first or second node, point or terminal may include an access point or a station (STA).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for protecting data used by Java applications and a device using the method. The writer of a Java application adds to its attribute table an attribute signifying the need to protect the data used by the application. When the application is loaded into the user's device, the table with its attributes is also loaded. The operating system of the device has an extension related to the Java storage engine, which implements the data protection if the storage engine has found a protection attribute during the storing of data. The implementation of the protection can be based e.g. on encryption or on inhibiting access to a certain memory range from all other programs than the Java application in question. The access of a user of a Java application to data which are intended to be kept protected is made remarkably more difficult. The protection is implemented without changing the standardized interfaces of the Java platform.

Abstract: The invention relates to a data transmission arrangement between at least two apparatuses in a system in which part of the connection between different apparatuses is a wireless connection. The apparatuses communicate with method calls containing a service request. Service brokers direct the service request to a given server, which replies to the method call according to the required service by sending the information required for the service to the service broker which sends the information to the sender of the method call. The arrangement further comprises an adapter which is connected to wireless apparatuses and which adapts the protocol used in the wireless connection to the rest of the network. The adapter finds the server providing the requested service on behalf of the apparatus which sent the method call and operates in a wireless network.

Abstract: The invention relates to implementing data transmission between at least two sets of software used in one or more devices which comprise means for establishing a connection to a telecommunications system. The communication is partly carried out with method calls including a service request. A service broker supplies the service request included in the method call to indicated server, which responds to the method call by sending required information back to the sender of the method call via the service broker. At least some of the programs participating in data transmission are implemented with a script-based programming language in the devices. The arrangement comprises an application which transmits service requests and responses to the requests between the service broker and the software that needs data transmission, and renders data transmission requests and responses to the requests compatible between script-based software and another system.
