Abstract: Embodiments for intelligent temporary contact sharing between user equipment (UE) by a processor. A temporary exchange of contact data may be provided between a first UE and a second UE via a wireless communication network according to one or more policies, user preferences, historical data, a defined physical or virtual proximity between the first UE and the second UE, or a combination thereof. The contact data may be automatically deleted between the first UE and the second UE according to the one or more policies, the user preferences, the historical data, the defined physical or virtual proximity between the first UE and the second UE, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for automatic un-muting of a telephone call. A muted telephone of a user is automatically un-muted during a telephone call by evaluating whether the user is facing the telephone while speaking during the telephone call. The telephone can optionally be automatically muted when the user stops speaking and is not facing the telephone. A telephone call of a user can also be processed by evaluating whether the user is facing the telephone while speaking during the telephone call; and providing a message to the user indicating that the telephone is muted if the user is facing the telephone while speaking during the telephone call.

Abstract: Indicating when the cover for a computer chassis has been opened is disclosed. A computer of an embodiment of the invention includes a chassis and a basic input/output system (BIOS), or another type of firmware. The chassis has an openable cover, and circuitry indicating when the openable cover has been opened. The BIOS has a non-volatile memory in which a flag is set when the circuitry indicates that the openable cover has been opened. The computer may further include always-on circuitry, such as time-of-day and real-time clock circuitry, to which the circuitry indicating when the openable cover has been opened is electrically connected. The computer may also include one or more encryption and/or signing modules that encrypt and/or sign data according to one or more keys. The keys are rendered invalid when the cover of the chassis has been opened.
