Abstract: Functionality can be implemented in an operating system to increase the granularity of isolation for objects. A domain can be defined to represent each of different entities (e.g., different departments or work groups). User identifiers and/or user credentials can be associated with the appropriate domain or domains. An administrator can then define a set of rules that govern operation(s) that can be performed on the objects based on the domains. Processes running on a system will inherit the domains of a user account logged into the system. When a process running on the system attempts to perform an operation on an object, an operating system process evaluates the domain isolation rules with an identifier of the object and a domain identifier to determine whether the operation is permitted to proceed.

Abstract: An approach is provided that uses policies to determine which parental privileges are inherited by the parent's child processes. A parent software process initializes a child software process, such as by executing the child process. The parent process is associated with a first set of privileges. The inheritance policies are retrieved that correspond to the parent process. A second set of privileges is identified based on the retrieved inheritance policies, and this second set of privileges is applied to the child software process.

Abstract: In accordance with an aspect of the invention, A Schottky junction field effect transistor (JFET) is created using cobalt silicide, or other Schottky material, to form the gate contact of the JFET. The structural concepts can also be applied to a standard JFET that uses N? type or P? type dopants to form the gate of the JFET. In addition, the structures allow for an improved JFET linkup with buried linkup contacts allowing improved noise and reliability performance for both conventional diffusion (N? and P? channel) JFET structures and for Schottky JFET structures. In accordance with another aspect of the invention, the gate poly, as found in a standard CMOS or BiCMOS process flow, is used to perform the linkup between the source and the junction gate and/or between the drain and the junction gate of a junction filed effect transistor (JFET).

Abstract: The Authorized Authorization Set System comprising a modified operating system, a command table containing authorized authorization sets, and a modified RBAC security system, eliminates the need for inherited privileges that must be passed to subcommands in order for the command to run. The modified operating system accesses a table containing authorized authorization sets which identify the privileges for all subcommands within a command. When a user is assigned an accessauth for a command, and a sub-command is a privileged sub-command, the privileged sub-command is only run when the accessauth of the sub-command is included in the authorized authorization set of the command.

Abstract: The number of times that a non-volatile memory (NVM) can be programmed and erased is substantially increased by utilizing a localized heating element that anneals the oxide that is damaged by tunneling charge carriers when the NVM is programmed and erased. The program and erase voltages are also reduced when heat from the heating element is applied prior to programming and erasing.

Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for access control in a mixed discretionary access control and role based access control environment. In one embodiment, an execution access for a command is determined using a set of role based authorizations for a user invoking the command. In response to a determination that the user invoking the command is authorized based on the set of role based authorizations, a privilege in a set of privileges associated with the command is raised. Raising the privilege in the set of privileges bypasses discretionary access control checks. In response to a determination that the user invoking the command is unauthorized based on the set of role based authorizations, an execution access for the command is determined using a set of discretionary access mode bits associated with the command.

Abstract: A heating element is utilized to improve the bias conditions of an E2PROM cell during program and erase operations. The heating element can also be used to anneal or condition the cell for improved charge storage. During a program or an erase operation, the cell's control gate and read transistor are set to ground. The heating element then has a voltage potential applied across its terminals, causing current to flow in this resistor. As the current density increases, the resistor begins to generate heat. This heat is thermally coupled into the cell's floating gate, causing its temperature to rise.
