Abstract: Method and devices of detecting a malware infection of a computing device in a communication network are disclosed. A computing device may monitor outputs of temperature sensors associated with elements of the computing device. The monitored outputs of the temperature sensors may be compared to a profile of temperatures associated with normal operation of the computing device.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods for determining a location of a mobile device are presented. Often a mobile device requests assistance data from a location server. If the mobile device expects a significant delayed response in receiving the assistance data, the mobile device may determine a seed location or rough location estimate from a server. The mobile device may also request a map to display and/or a data structure for its estimator. The mobile device may preload the estimator with the rough location estimate and/or the data structure. After preloading, the estimator determines a location of the mobile device. Also, the mobile device may show the map to a user via a display.

The set of viewing parameters may be adjusted to reduce overlap between the representation of the first object and the second object in the rendering of the image. In additional embodiments, 3D enhancements to two-dimensional map objects may be added to enhance the presentation of the information.

Abstract: Methods and devices are described for providing localized secure navigation in conjunction with near field communication access control systems.

Such location assistance data may be used by the local secure navigation module to provide location assistance when the mobile device is in a secure location. The location of the mobile device may then be tracked using at least the location assistance data and the communication with the door access control point.

Abstract: A gateway device may control access to content based, at least in part, on an audience that will consume the content. In relation to a request for content to be delivered to a media output device, the gateway device may obtain biometric data from one or more trait capture devices having a physical relation to the media output device. The gateway can determine the potential audience of the content and enforce content restrictions based on the audience. The content restrictions may be based on one or more content attributes about the content and one or more audience traits about the audience. The gateway may use thresholds associated with the audience trait to determine whether the content attribute is appropriate for the audience. The threshold or a combination of thresholds may provide for granular control of access to content.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods for selecting a base station or a set of base stations for RTT measurements, or other interactive radio localization technique, to determine a position fix of a device are presented. The method imposes a processing load on only inactive or less active base stations. Busy or busier base stations are not used in the interactive radio localization technique. By imposing a processing load on only less active base stations, transmitting devices may be under loaded and encounter a more uniform processing delay, and thus provide a more accurate measurement resulting in a more accurate position fix.
