  • Method for the decomposition in modules of smart-card event-driven applications
    Patent number: 8032416
    Abstract: A method for separating an event-driven application in an electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a smart-card, and the application resident in the smart-card may be separated in at least two modules: a central module and one or more complementary modules. The method includes managing the interaction between the modules by a framework of the smart-card, and generating new set of events by the framework at the end of execution of the central module. In this manner, the central module can be developed early in production and in any set of programming languages. It can access any card resources and even in an architecture dependent way.

  • Transaction stack for electronic devices including non volatile memory with limited amount of writing cycle
    Patent number: 7861016
    Abstract: A transaction stack for devices with a limited writing cycle memory slides in a transaction buffer. Following any Commit Transaction or, alternatively, any Begin Transaction, the transaction stack is reallocated inside the transaction buffer. Consequently, some memory locations in the transaction buffer are released. The writing accesses to the non-volatile area memory of the transaction buffer are not concentrated in the first address, as in a standard implementation of a transaction stack, but they are spread over the locations of the transaction buffer.
