  • Publication number: 20110076946
    Abstract: A system for monitoring an object includes a transponder device associated with the object and an acceleration sensor operable to provide an acceleration signal. The transponder device is operable to emit a radio signal based on the acceleration signal. A mobile terminal having a short range radio interface and a secondary radio interface, comprising a wireless network interface, is operable to communicate with the transponder device using the short range radio interface. The mobile terminal is operable to receive the radio signal so as to indicate that the object is present within a coverage area defined by the short range radio interface. The mobile terminal is operable to emit a first alert signal when the radio signal is not received by the mobile terminal within a first predetermined time interval.

  • Publication number: 20090165129
    Abstract: A method for a higher-level privilege instance to delegate privileges to a lower-level privilege instance, through which the granting of privileges, P1, to a lower-level privilege instance in a data processing device is automatically carried out. The device is provided with functions for setting up required privileges before distribution to a user or by long distance data transmission and, hence, privileges, P1, can be provided to the lower-level privilege instance with the help of a higher-level privilege instance which has special privileges, P2, which authorize the assignment of privileges.
