Abstract: A data storage system for storing data for a host processor includes physical data storage devices each having data storage attributes and an outboard storage manager. The outboard storage manager is operable with the physical data storage devices for presenting to the host processor a virtual data storage image having a desired data storage attribute for a particular data storage application by organizing the physical data storage devices in an arranagement suitable for providing the desired data storage attribute irrespective of the data storage attributes of the physical data storage devices such that the combined physical data storage device arrangement emulates the virtual data storage image. The outboard storage manager is operable to transfer data between the host processor and the organized physical data storage device arrangement via the virtual data storage image.

Abstract: A method and system for sharing data and interrogating data include establishing a level of trust between mutually mistrusting entities so that data may be shared therebetween based on the level of trust. The method and system include interrogating data provided from one of the entities to the other entity without the receiving entity having complete access to the data associated therewith.

Abstract: A customer making a credit card transaction inserts their smart card into a card reader attached to the merchant's system. The card reader activates the customer's card and passes certain merchant information. The merchant's system then requests a "billing digest" from the customer's card. The billing digest is returned to the merchant's card reader that forwards it (and the transaction information which includes customer information and merchant information) to the corresponding credit card issuer, which maintains the customer's credit card account. In one embodiment, the customer information and the merchant information are encrypted. Upon receiving the billing digest, transaction information is decrypted if necessary and the credit card issuer looks up the customer's master key using the customer's account number. The credit card issuer then uses the transaction information to re-compute the billing digest (an authentication billing digest) and compares this new value with the billing digest submitted by the merchant. If authentic, the billing digest and authentication billing digest values are equivalent, then funds are transferred and an acceptance notification is returned to the merchant. If not authentic, a denial notification is returned to the merchant. Security is further enhanced by utilizing a unique reference for each transaction in the unique customer information used for creating the billing digest.

Abstract translation: 进行信用卡交易的客户将他们的智能卡插入连接到商家系统的读卡器。 读卡器激活客户卡并传递某些商家信息。 商家的系统然后从客户的卡请求“结算摘要”。 结算摘要返回给将客户信用卡账户转发的商家的读卡器（以及包含客户信息和商家信息的交易信息）发送给相应的信用卡发卡机构。 在一个实施例中，客户信息和商家信息被加密。 收到结算摘要后，必要时对交易信息进行解密，信用卡发卡机构使用客户的帐号查询客户的主密钥。 然后，信用卡发行商使用交易信息来重新计算记帐摘要（认证记帐摘要），并将该新值与商家提交的记帐摘要进行比较。 如果是真实的，则计费摘要和认证计费摘要值是相等的，那么资金被转移，接收通知被返回给商家。 如果不可靠，则向商家返回拒绝通知。 通过为用于创建记帐摘要的唯一客户信息中的每个交易使用唯一的引用来进一步增强安全性。

Abstract: A method and apparatus for transferring data. A plurality of packets is received, wherein several of the plurality of packets includes a command and data. Packets within the plurality of packets having identical commands are identified to form a set of selected packets. A buffer is allocated to process the set of selected packets. A selectable subset of the packets not having identical commands to those in the set of selected packets are allocated to other buffers for processing.

Abstract: A communication system (20) permitting temporary connections for specific, predictable data transfer performance is presented. The communication system includes a requesting computer system (24), a responding computer system (26) and communications paths (50) for establishing connections between the requesting computer system and the responding computer system. The requesting computer system can establish a temporary initial control connection with the responding computer system through a first communication path (56). A temporary negotiating connection is established with the responding computer system. Data transfer characteristics are negotiated with the responding computer using the temporary negotiating connection. A temporary data connection is established through a set including at least one communication path based on the negotiated data transfer characteristics, the set not including the first communication path.
