  • Consumer product distribution in the embedded system market
    Patent number: 7644279
    Abstract: Aspects for consumer product distribution in the embedded system market are described. The aspects include forming a secure network for distributing product digitation files capable of configuring operations of an adaptive computing engine (ACE), and providing an agent server within the secure network for controlling licenses of the product digitation files, wherein a separation of responsibility and control of the distributing and licensing exists.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 18, 2002
    Date of Patent: January 5, 2010
    Assignee: NVIDIA Corporation
    Inventors: Owen Robert Rubin, Eric Murray, Nalini Praba Uhrig
  • Method and apparatus for watermarking binary computer code with modified compiler optimizations
    Patent number: 7617396
    Abstract: A system and apparatus for inserting a watermark into a compiled computer program selectively replaces specified optimizations by non-optimized code to encode bit values of the watermark. The watermark is read by decoding the executable code and assigning the decoded bit values, determined by the presence or absence of optimized code, to bit positions in a signature.
