A computing device may determine a respective disk access usage of flash memory of the computing device by each of a plurality of applications. The computing device may compare the respective disk access usage of the flash memory by each of the plurality of applications with a respective application-specific disk access overuse threshold to determine disk access overuse of the flash memory by an application of the plurality of applications. The computing device may, in response to determining the disk access overuse of the flash memory by the application, terminate the application.

Devices and methods are disclosed relating to user management services for a vehicle. One of more processors of a device may execute a first operating system to provide user management services to the vehicle. The first operating system may present an interface to a second operating system by which the second operating system may invoke user management operations. The first operating system may generate a first message relating to user management. The interface may provide the first message to the second operating system. The interface may receive a second message from the second operating system. The second message may be related to synchronizing user management between the first operating system and the second operating system.

Enabling or disabling vehicle applications for execution is described. When a request to execute an application is received by a vehicle processing system or a change in the operational status of a vehicle is detected, the vehicle processing system may obtain classification data classifying the application and the current operational status of the vehicle. The classification data may indicate an application type of the application and the types of vehicle operation statuses that the application can be executed under. Based on the classification data, vehicle operation status, and one or more rules, the vehicle processing system may determine whether to enable execution of the application or deny execution of the application in the vehicle.

Application execution while operating vehicle

Systems and techniques are provided for per-device authentication. A hardware serial number associated with a hardware component of a computing device may be received. The hardware serial number may be converted to a hardware key check. A hardware key associated with a certificate from the computing device may be received. The hardware key may be compared to the hardware check key to obtain a verification of the certificate. The certificate may be verified when the hardware key check matches the hardware key and the certificate may not be verified when the hardware key check does not match the hardware key. A signature associated with the certificate may be verified. Access to the data processing apparatus by the computing device may be permitted when the certificate is verified and the signature is determined to be authentic.

Per-device authentication

In a projected architecture system, a mobile device may be responsible for providing the video that is displayed on a vehicle's infotainment system's display. The resolution and/or aspect ratio of the remote display may not be supported by the mobile device. An encoder, based on the display resolution, may render one or more video frames that a decoder coupled to the infotainment system can scale to a resolution compatible with the remote display.
