Abstract: An electroactive device comprising a stack comprising a first electrode and a second electrode; and an electroactive layer disposed between the first and second electrodes, wherein the stack comprises a mitigated area essentially free of material corresponding with the first electrode, and wherein at least a portion of the second electrode and electroactive layer, as contained in the mitigated area, are functional.

Abstract: Technologies are disclosed to transfer responsibility and control over security from player makers to content authors by enabling integration of security logic and content. An exemplary optical disc carries an encrypted digital video title combined with data processing operations that implement the title's security policies and decryption processes. Player devices include a processing environment (e.g., a real-time virtual machine), which plays content by interpreting its processing operations. Players also provide procedure calls to enable content code to load data from media, perform network communications, determine playback environment configurations, access secure nonvolatile storage, submit data to CODECs for output, and/or perform cryptographic operations. Content can insert forensic watermarks in decoded output for tracing pirate copies.
