Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments providing an adaptive image. An embodiment operates by receiving an indication of a size of an image area of an interface allocated to an image of a webpage. An image asset corresponding to the image area is determined. One of a plurality of groupings corresponding to the size of the image is selected from the image asset. The selected grouping is provided for display on the interface in the webpage.

Abstract: A method is provided for authenticating two distinct objects using a single signature stored on one of the objects. On initiation of a hardware system a valid hash value can be generated based at least in part on a rootdisk file and a kernel can be modified to contain the valid hash value. On subsequent boots of the hardware system, the valid hash value stored within the kernel can be compared with a value of a potential rootdisk file and if the valid hash value and the rootdisk hash value match, the hardware system can proceed with the boot process.

Abstract: A system and method for self-activated or remote-controlled data destruction for mobile devices. In an embodiment, when the user is unable to find their mobile device, they can log onto a web-base/software application through the computer or other communication device such as a telephone or mobile devices to request a data destruction command to be sent to the lost mobile device. If the lost mobile device, after a specified time duration, does not have any reception to receive any signals nor has any battery-power, the self-destruction application embedded in the mobile device will automatically activate itself during the next reset procedure or power up or shut down process. This application will perform a memory erase procedure for all selected data on the mobile device. To increase the area of service the embedded application can scan and connect to other available networks such as Wi-Fi to extend the coverage area.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) for helping to protect an occupant (28) of a vehicle (12) that has a side structure (16) and a roof (18). The apparatus (10) includes an inflatable vehicle occupant protection device (14) having a stored condition in which the protection device is deflated, rolled up, and positioned extending along the vehicle roof (18). The protection device (16) is inflatable away from the vehicle roof (18) to a deployed condition positioned between the side structure (16) and the vehicle occupant (28). The apparatus (10) also includes a housing (40) for the protection device (16) when in the stored condition. At least one of the housing (40) and the protection device (16) include a portion (200) for blocking telescoping movement of the protection device (14).
