Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for calibrating a nuclear medicine imaging system. In one embodiment, a method comprises: detecting, with a plurality of detectors, photons emitted by a calibration source comprising a radioactive line source and a fluorescence source, while pivoting one or more detectors of the plurality of detectors; and calibrating, with a processor communicatively coupled to the plurality of detectors, each detector of the plurality of detectors based on energy measurements of the detected photons. In this way, a two-point energy calibration of detectors can be performed with a single isotope, and without removing or adjusting a collimator attached to the detector.

Abstract: In a method of simulating operation of a programmable integrated circuit, a computer is operated to execute simultaneously a functional model and a timing model of the integrated circuit. Executing the functional model comprises: determining a transaction sequence which comprises one or more successive transactions of the integrated circuit and, for each transaction of said transaction sequence, updating a state of the integrated circuit in dependence of the respective transaction. Executing the timing model comprises: determining, for each of said transactions, a corresponding latency. A data carrier carrying executable instructions for instructing a computer to carry out the method and a computer system are proposed as well.

Abstract: Systems and methods enable members of a secure transaction network to readily identify the appropriate trusted service manager (TSM) to support a particular transaction. A global directory of TSM providers is provided that a secure service provider can use for determining which TSM provider is the authorized manager of a security domain for the particular transaction. In aspect the directory of TSM providers may be stored within a mobile device secure element. In another aspect, the directory of TSM providers may be stored in a central TSM repository. In a further aspect, the directory of TSM providers may be distributed among a number of secondary TSM repositories. The appropriate TSM may be identified based upon a secure element identifier and an application identifier provided by a secure element as part of the transaction. Communication of the identifiers from mobile devices may be via cellular or near field communication links.
