  • Cyclic buffer mechanism for receiving wireless data under varying data traffic conditions
    Patent number: 8024510
    Abstract: A method of ensuring that data sent to a handheld wireless communications device is written to non-volatile memory is disclosed. In a device, where data is initially written to a first volatile memory and then written to a second volatile memory before being written from the second volatile memory to a non-volatile memory, software code is implemented that causes the writing of the data to non-volatile memory concurrently with the writing of the data to the second volatile memory. The software code may incorporate operating system commands (such as Windows OS).
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: September 20, 2011
    Assignee: Research In Motion Limited
    Inventors: Mike Rybak, Jeff LeJeune, Rodney Bylsma, Rob Oliver
