A Post-Quantum Computing Cryptographic communication protocol including a lattice based RSA algorithm, the protocol may include: generating a public key and a private key pair; encrypting a message using a public key pair; transmitting the encrypted message over a communication channel; and decrypting the encrypted message using a private key pair, wherein the generating the public key and the private key pair includes; selecting a first random vector from lattices using a Klein's Algorithm; selecting a second random vector from lattices using the Klein's Algorithm; generating a shortest random vector using a Gauss Sieve algorithm; taking a first vector product of the first random vector and the second random vector; calculating a Totient function of the first vector product; converting the Totient function to the first vector product; generating the public key pair; and generating the private key pair.

The present invention describes a multi-module USB system consisting of a multi-function USB apparatus and associated USB cap. The multi-function USB apparatus operates as a USB host as well as a USB client. The USB cap houses a rechargeable battery pack and when docked with the multi-function USB apparatus provides power to the multi-function USB apparatus. The multi-function USB apparatus and USB cap can also operate independently. The USB system is a multi-functional device having modes that embody, including recording, sharing, playback, storage, and charging battery of USB based portable media devices. Further, the USB system configures itself automatically for the various modes based on use of its interfaces with no specific settings required from the user.

A recording apparatus for recording audio-visual (A/V) contents directly from an A/V input source to a portable media player (PMP) is disclosed. The recorded A/V contents can be played back by the portable media player immediately upon stopping the recording. The recording apparatus does not involve the use of any intermediate computing or storage device other than the portable media player and the recording apparatus itself. The A/V contents for recording may come in the form of analog/digital signals or as digital data in compressed or uncompressed form from transmission and/or storage devices. Depending upon the nature of the input, the recording apparatus digitizes, encodes and/or transcodes the A/V contents and stores the processed A/V contents directly into the portable media player in playback ready format. The recording apparatus includes a one-button control interface for starting and stopping the recording of A/V contents to the portable media player. By clicking the button once, the process of recording the A/V contents into the portable media player is initiated. Optionally, elaborate control of the A/V recording parameters can be achieved through a configuration file. The type of encoders/decoders, bit-rates, duration of recording and other parameters can be set in the configuration file. The configuration file is stored in the portable media player or any other connected storage device. The recording apparatus provides both manual and automatic update mechanisms for play lists in the portable media player. In addition, the recording apparatus may also record and store A/V contents to storage devices other than a portable media player.

A method for displaying video data instantly in reverse order is disclosed. According to the method, a compressed audio and video (A/V) stream is received from a source. The compressed A/V stream is demultiplexed into an audio stream and a video stream. The video stream has a number of compressed video frames which include a number of key frames. Each key frame is followed by one or more associated frames. Each of the compressed video frames is tagged with a tag. The tag associated with each key frame and file position of each key frame is stored in a table. The compressed video frames are decoded to generate a number of decoded video frames while maintaining their corresponding tags. During normal play, the decoded video frames are stored in a forward queue, and the decoded video frames in the forward queue are then outputted in a FIFO (first-in-first-out) order to a reverse queue and a display device for display. The reverse queue operates in a FIFO manner by discarding the oldest decoded video frame stored in the reverse queue when the reverse queue is full. During reverse play, the tag of the oldest decoded video frame in the reverse queue is recorded when a reverse play command is received, and the decoded video frames in the reverse queue are outputted in a LIFO (last-in-first-out) order to the forward queue and the display device for display. At the start of the reverse play, the forward queue operates in a LIFO manner until the most recently decoded video frames stored in the forward queue are discarded. Thereafter, the forward queue and the reverse queue operate in a FIFO manner. The recorded tag is used to retrieve one or more compressed video frames from the source. The retrieved one or more compressed video frames are tagged and decoded to generate one or more newly decoded video frames. The one or more newly decoded video frames are forwarded to the reverse queue.
