==METHOD FOR MODIFYING A TEST PROFILE IN AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CARD, CORRESPONDING INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CARD, TESTING METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18464811 titled 'METHOD FOR MODIFYING A TEST PROFILE IN AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CARD, CORRESPONDING INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CARD, TESTING METHOD AND APPARATUS

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes an integrated circuit that includes memory and processing circuitry. The memory stores an Elementary File Test (EFT) file with information to update a target elementary file (TGF) in a file system. The processing circuitry identifies the TGF based on a file path identifier and updates its content with specific data.

* Explanation:
* Integrated circuit with memory and processing circuitry
* Memory stores EFT file for updating TGF in file system
* EFT file includes file path identifier, first type data, second type data
* Processing circuitry identifies TGF and updates content with specified data

== Potential Applications ==
The technology described in this patent application could be applied in various industries such as data storage, information technology, and electronic devices.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology solves the problem of efficiently updating specific files within a file system without the need for manual intervention or complex programming.

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include improved data management, streamlined file updating processes, and enhanced efficiency in handling large volumes of data.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
* Streamlined File Management System for Electronic Devices

== Possible Prior Art ==
There may be prior art related to file management systems and data updating processes in the field of information technology.

== Unanswered Questions ==

=== How does this technology compare to existing file updating methods? ===
The article does not provide a direct comparison between this technology and existing file updating methods.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

An integrated circuit includes a memory and processing circuitry. The memory stores an Elementary File Test (EFT) file including a record storing information to update a target elementary file (TGF) in a file system of the EFT. The stored information includes a file path identifier identifying a position of the TGF in the file system of the EFT file, which is a concatenation of a parent file identifier followed by an identifier of the TGF, a first length indicator of a first type of data, the data of the first type, a second length indicator to indicate a length of a second type of data, and the data of the second type. The processing circuitry, in operation, identifies the TGF based on the file path identifier and updates the content of the TGF to include the first data and one or more instances of the second data.
