    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the file system which is more flexible and improved as a file system having an external structure of fixed size by including at least one part wherein another file system arranged for dynamic storing operation. SOLUTION: This file system is the file system 8 having the external structure of fixed size and includes at least the 1st file 12 wherein another internal file system is arranged for dynamic storing operation. A file system driver is dynamically constituted by using a 2nd file containing user information such as the size, owner information, and key field of the file system 8. This nesting type file system 8 can be edited by being accessed sufficiently dynamically without affecting a basic ISO file layout, i.e., the external fixed structure of an external file system.

    Abstract: The present invention describes an improved communication architecture for smart card systems and an improved procedure for communication of the smart card applications using protected data carriers, particularly in the case where smart cards or smart card readers cannot be used. The improved communication architecture has a common virtual smart card interface between the respective smart card applications and the modules which facilitate access to the protected data carriers (smart cards). The modules allow access to either physical smart cards, virtual software smart cards or hardware smart cards. The common virtual smart card interface means that the application is completely independent of the respective module or the respective data carrier. Alternatively, the improved communication architecture additionally contains a virtual smart card adapter which communicates over the common virtual smart card interface with the respective smart card application. The different modules are attached to the smart card adapters and selected statically or dynamically over the smart card application. Virtual software smart cards which functionally imitate true physical smart cards can be linked over the virtual smart card adapter to communicate with a smart card application. This procedure is then particularly suited for when the smart card is lost or defective, the smart card reader cannot function, or for testing new smart card technologies.

    Abstract: A system and method for processing information contained in a smart card (130) uses a local computer (100) on which a proxy server (120) is installed. The local computer is connected to a data communication network (110), such as the Internet, and comprises a network browser which is used to generate access requests to data stored on a smart card and in a local storage (122). The requests are received by an HTTP server (210) and passed to request brokers (214, 215, 216). In response to a request parsing operation access functions (226, 228, 340, 440, 350, 460) are activated for accessing the local storage and a smart card (130). Data read from a smart card may be inserted into a HTML document accessed in the local storage, and data from the local storage or from remote sources may be uploaded to a smart card. Data modifier means (232, 234, 236) are provided to translate data read from the smart card into a data format corresponding to a user interface, and for translating data to be uploaded to said smart card into a predetermined smart card data format. The proxy server may be readily adapted to any smart card data format, and it may provide data security functions and data compression/decompression facilities.
