Abstract: The invention describes an electrical machine having an armature with armature slots for accommodating armature coils. At least one armature coil is formed from two coil elements which are arranged symmetrically with respect to one another in relation to an axis of symmetry, which runs through the center-point of the armature shaft. The coil elements are connected to two adjacent commutator laminates of a commutator. A first brush, a second brush and a third brush bear against the commutator in a manner such that they can slide. The second brush interacts with the first brush or the third brush.

Abstract: A method for transactional writing of data into a persistent memory comprising memory cells includes a transactional writing step and a transaction recovery step. The transactional writing step comprises one or more memory cell writing steps comprising the sub-steps of writing in a transaction buffer as transaction buffer entry the current data value and the corresponding address of the respective memory cell, writing a first valid marker for the memory cell in the transaction buffer, and writing a new data value to the memory cell. The transaction recovery step is performed in case of an abortion of the transactional writing step for restoring the current data values of the aborted transaction in the persistent memory, the transaction recovery step comprising the sub-step of writing a transaction recovery marker to the transaction buffer indicating the start of the transaction recovery.

Abstract: The invention relates to a wiper system with a wiper drive (1), which is comprised of a wiper motor (2) and a gear (3). A wiper arm shaft (14) for a wiper arm (19) can be driven via the output shaft (5) of the gear (3).

Abstract: A system and method of performing electronic transactions between a server computer and a client computer. The method implements a communication protocol with encrypted data transmission and mutual authentication between a server and a hardware device via a network, performs a decryption of encrypted server responses, forwards the decrypted server responses from the hardware device to the client computer, displays the decrypted server responses on a client display, receives requests to be sent from the client computer to the server, parses the client requests for predefined transaction information by the hardware device, encrypts and forwards client requests, displays the predefined transaction information upon detection, forwards and encrypts the client request containing the predefined transaction information to the server if a user confirmation is received, and cancels the transaction if no user confirmation is received.

Abstract: A method for providing a user device with a set of access codes comprises, in the user device, storing an encryption key and an identification code, and sending a message containing the identification code to a server via a communications network. In the server, an encryption key is stored corresponding to the key stored in the user device, allocating the set of access codes on receipt of the identification code from the user device. A look up function is performed based on the identification code received in the message to retrieve the key from storage. The set of access codes is encrypted using the retrieved key to produce an encrypted set. A message containing the encrypted set is sent to the user device via the network. In the user device, the encrypted set received from the server is decrypted using the key in storage, and storing the decrypted set of access codes for use by a user of the user device.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a data-processing system comprising a processor and first encrypted information in a first persistent memory whose level of information leakage is higher than that of a second persistent memory. In the second persistent memory is stored a first cryptographic key for decrypting the first encrypted information, thereby generating therefrom first unencrypted information that is usable by the processor for executing an operation. The same cryptographic key may also be used for encrypting the first unencrypted information, thereby generating the first encrypted information.
