In a method for authenticating a charge-coupled device (CCD), e.g., in a digital camera including the charge-coupled device, a physical unclonable function is utilized for the authentication. In the method, a response to be measured of pixels in the charge-coupled device to a defined incident light is used as the physical unclonable function.

Method for authenticating a charge-coupled device (CCD)

A system and method for providing a fault tolerant vehicle dynamics control (VDC) is described. The system includes a fault tolerance module that receives an indication of a fault in at least one of the actuators of the VDC and selects a fault compensation mode to maintain the stability of the motor vehicle in light of the received fault indication. The fault tolerance module proceeds by diagnosing at least one fault in at least one of the actuators, selecting a fault compensation mode based on the detected at least one fault and the driving condition, and compensating for the at least one fault by optimally controlling remaining operable actuators according to the fault compensation mode.
