Ralf Peter THOR has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12112199
    Abstract: A method includes inputting a compressed image in a computing system. The method also includes a process of decompressing another image over the compressed image by a processor. Power is restored to the process of decompressing the image in response to an interruption to the decompression process. The decompressed image is configured to override the inputted compressed image. The method also includes completing the process of decompressing the image over the inputted compressed image.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 30, 2021
    Date of Patent: October 8, 2024
    Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.

  • Publication number: 20230169020
    Abstract: A method includes inputting a compressed image in a computing device. The method also includes identifying a shortage of random access memory during a decompression process. The method also includes performing calls to a system of memory caches to read and write input and output including the inputted compressed image by a processor. The method also includes identifying arbitrary storage to read and write the input and output by the processor. The method also includes redirecting the input and output by the processor to the identified arbitrary storage.

  • Patent number: 11379135
    Abstract: One implementation is for a device. The device includes a controller having a memory protection unit, a legally relevant memory portion capable of interacting with the controller, a legally non-relevant memory portion capable of interacting with the controller, an interface in the memory protection unit that allows a privileged application to access the legally relevant memory portion and disallows an unprivileged application to access to the legally relevant portion, and an interrupt system, wherein when the unprivileged application makes an attempt to interact with the legally relevant memory portion, the memory protection unit takes an action associated with the unprivileged application.
