Abstract: An electric machine has a rotor, a stator which is spaced apart from the rotor in a radial direction by a gap and which has one or more stator windings and winding heads at one or both axial ends of the stator, in the gap a tube with a fluid-tight wall which extends in an axial direction and in a circumferential direction and which has a wall thickness in a radial direction, wherein the tube extends in an axial direction beyond the winding heads of the stator at least one stator end, at least one cover, which extends radially and which covers the winding heads of the at least one axial end of the stator, at the at least one axial end of the tube, and a cooling fluid inlet and/or a cooling fluid outlet for a cooling fluid chamber which is closed by the tube and by the cover. At least regions of the tube are formed with a ferrite material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for performing machine checking of electronically-stored personal data in a passport booklet. The data are transmitted in an obscured form to a reader device after the passport has been presented to this reader device, and the accuracy of the obscuring is first verified and the obscuring is then removed. A positive signal is issued in the event of a successful verification. The recovered personal data are subsequently checked for authenticity. The verification and removal of the obscuring, as well as the authenticity check, ensue in a time-staggered manner after the passport booklet has been removed from the reader device by a verifying person in order to conduct further checks.

Abstract: Method, apparatus and system for contactless charging of an energy storage unit of an energy sink (2) by an energy source (1). Data are transferred between the energy source and the energy sink via an alternating field in a first operating mode of the energy source. In a second operating mode of the energy source, an energy necessary for charging is transferred from the energy source to the energy sink via the alternating field. In the second operating mode, no data are transferred from the energy source to the energy sink and the alternating field is therefore produced with a field strength that is greater than a possible field strength upon simultaneous transfer of data and charging energy.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for personalizing a security element (SE) of a mobile end device (EG), in particular in the form of a smart card chip of a communication end device. The invention comprises the pre-personalizing of the security element (SE) within the framework of its production process and the final personalizing of the security element (SE) upon the first-time use of the end device (EG) by a user (N), wherein a communication link is established between the end device (EG) and a trust center (TC) of a communication network operator. Within the framework of the pre-personalization of the security element (SE), a master key (MK) unique to the security element (SE) is ascertained and transmitted to the trust center (TC). Within the frame-work of the final personalization of the security element (SE), personal data of the user are transmitted upon the first-time use of the end device (EG) to the trust center (TC) and linked there with the master key (MK) to form a modified master key (MK).

Abstract: In a method for the optimisation of compiler-generated program code, the compiler-generated program code is searched for program code fragments which correspond, at least in their effect, to respectively one library code fragment contained in a predefined library. The program code fragments found thereby are replaced by respectively one call of the corresponding library code fragment. A computer program product comprises program instructions for the execution of this method. A portable data carrier contains both the program code optimised according to this method and the library.

Abstract: For protecting a computer from manipulation of register contents, copies of registers to be protected (6; PC) are created in separate redundancy registers (10a-10c). At each instruction execution, the content of the register to be protected is compared with the copy thereof. The instruction is only executed if there is a match of register contents. If there is a mismatch of register contents, this is interpreted as an indication that the content of the register to be protected has been manipulated, and error handling is performed.
