Filed:

Oct 29, 2010

Appl. No.:

12/915769

Inventors:

Joseph Nutaro - Phoenix AZ, US
Daniel P. Johnson - Fridley MN, US
Robert Olson - Phoenix AZ, US

Assignee:

HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. - Morristown NJ

International Classification:

G06F 21/00

US Classification:

726 7, 726 26

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus are provided for securing the transfer of data over the internet from malicious interference. The apparatus comprises a computing device and a data storage device in operable communication with the computing device. The apparatus also includes a set of high assurance security instructions resident on the data storage device and executing within the computing device and at least one input/output interface. The method comprises receiving data via a first communication interface and storing the data in a memory device and initiating an unsecured data indication. The method also provides for receiving an authentication code via the first communication interface and decoding the authentication code and determining the authenticity of the data. If the authentication code fails to indicate authenticity then the data is deleted. If the authentication code indicates authenticity, then the data is transferred to a destination device via a second communication interface.

Assignee:

HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. - Morristown NJ

International Classification:

G06F 9/445

US Classification:

717169

Abstract:

Methods and systems are provided for updating a base file used by certified software that is executing on a processor within a first computing device without breaking a certification of the software. The method comprises receiving a software object at a communications interface of the first computing device, the software object containing instructions that when executed by the processor interfaces with the certified software and integrates a delta file with the base file to create an updated file within the first computing device. The method further comprises installing the software object in a random access memory (RAM) and initializing the software object in the processor from the RAM. After installing the software object, receiving the delta file and providing the delta file for combination with the base file by the software object and after the combination is complete, erasing the software object from the RAM.

Appl. No.:

8/732865

Inventors:

Eric Karl Becker - Peoria AZ
Robert John Olson - Peoria AZ
Robert Stebbing Doyle - Glendale AZ

Assignee:

Honeywell Inc.

International Classification:

G01S 1395

US Classification:

342 26

Abstract:

A radar system embeds information into the radar picture data for display on any display device. The radar receiver communicates weather data to a signal processor which generates a weather array. An I/O processor transmits data in the weather array to a display device via a picture bus. Alphanumeric data which is to be embedded into or combined with the weather array is stored in a message array. Font information for each alphanumeric character is stored in a font array. The message array and the font array are combined and translated into a text array which corresponds to the weather array. Prior to transmitting each radial of data to the display device, the I/O processor copies the appropriate radial data from the text array to the weather array thereby causing the desired alphanumeric characters to be displayed on the display device.

Inventors:

Robert J. Olson - Peoria AZ

Assignee:

Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN

International Classification:

G01S 1308

US Classification:

342182

Abstract:

A radar display having particular utility in search and rescue radar systems, employs a computer receiving inputs indicative of aircraft altitude, radar beam tilt angle and radar beam bandwidths to provide signals to the display indicative of where the radar beam intersects the surface under investigation.
