A container file containing a media file and a pluggable codec is sent to a receiver where the pluggable codec interfaces to a media player application, according to a predefined interface, to play the media file. A header in the container file indicates the locations of the media file and the pluggable codec.

Media with pluggable codec methods

Systems and methods for accessing data at a data storage device are disclosed. In a particular embodiment, a method includes receiving cluster information at a controller of a data storage device, the data storage device further including a memory, the cluster information being associated with a data file that is stored at the memory. The method also includes accessing the cluster information to locate at least one region of the memory corresponding to the data file. The method further includes accessing data from the data file at the at least one region of the memory that is identified by the cluster information. Accessing of data from the data file includes the controller executing an internal application.

Data access at a storage device using cluster information

Pirated certificates may be published or become available in an environment which includes computer networks and websites. An information appliance connected to the environment searches for certificates in the environment. When a certificate is found in the environment, the appliance determines whether to alert an entity having an interest in the certificate.

System and method for reducing fraud

A method and memory device for implementing long operations and supporting multiple streams are provided. In one embodiment, a memory device receives data and a command from a host to perform an operation on the data, wherein a time required for the memory device to complete the operation exceeds a maximum response time for the memory device to respond to the command. The memory device begins performing the operation on the data and, before exceeding the maximum response time and before completing the operation, sends the context of the operation to the host. At a later time, the memory device receives from the host: (i) a command to resume performing the operation and (ii) the context. The memory device then resumes performing the operation on the data based on the context received from the host.

Method and memory device for performing an operation on data

A method for protection of data includes maintaining a control parameter indicative of a current version of the data. The data is partitioned into multiple segments. Respective signatures of the segments are computed, responsively to the control parameter, the segments and respective signatures forming respective signed input segments, which are stored in a memory. After the signed input segments are stored, a signed output segment is fetched from the memory. The signature of the signed output segment is verified responsively to the control parameter, and the data in the signed output segment is processed responsively to verifying the signature.

Secure overlay manager protection

A counting device includes a set of memory cells, which are configured to store respective bits of a count code. A controller is coupled to the memory cells so as to increment, in response to occurrences of a count input, the count code in the set of the memory cells from an initial value up to a preset bound in each of a plurality of successive iterations, and to shift the bits of the count code that are respectively stored in the memory cells in each of the iterations relative to a preceding iteration.

Counter using shift for enhanced endurance

A counting device includes a set of memory cells, including multiple groups of the memory cells configured to store count words of a count code, which include a less significant word and a more significant word. A controller assigns first and second groups of the memory cells to store the less significant word and the more significant word. The controller increments the less significant word from an initial value up to a first limit in each plurality of successive first iterations and increments the more significant word from an initial value up to a second limit in each of a plurality of successive second iterations in response to reaching the first limit. Upon reaching the second limit, the controller makes a new assignment of the groups of the memory cells that are to store the less significant word and the more significant word.
