Disclosed is an adaptive stylus frontend to identify and update zero force offset pressure codes. The adaptive stylus frontend comprises a high gain instrumentation amplifier configured to receive the analog signal and provide the required gain to the analog signal. The adaptive stylus frontend comprises an analog-to-digital converter configured to convert the analog signal to digital codes at a predetermined sampling frequency. The stylus comprises an adaptive offset controller configured to adaptively identify, and update zero force offset pressure codes, wherein the zero force offset pressure code is the ADC output value when no external force is applied at the stylus tip. The zero force offset pressure comprises the pressure sensor offset introduced by a pressure sensor, the amplifier offset introduced by the amplifier, and the offset introduced by the analog to digital converter.

Apparatus, methods and computer programs provided for metering and accounting in a commercial e-services infrastructure address the requirement for handling composite services in which higher-level services are built using simpler underlying services, each of which may be autonomously owned and operated. Metering records for each service underlying a composite service are correlated by a process associated with the composite service, and then sent to an accounting service where they can be aggregated. The correlation is performed in a distributed manner with correlated usage data provided on a per-request basis. Accounting services can take account of the usage and charges associated with the underlying services to provide accounting and billing on a per-request basis or per customer-provider pair for a billing period.
