本說明書實施例提供一種應用功能啟動方法、裝置以及設備。
為了使本技術領域的人員更好地理解本說明書中的技術方案，下面將結合本說明書實施例中的圖式，對本說明書實施例中的技術方案進行清楚、完整地描述，顯然，所描述的實施例僅僅是本申請一部分實施例，而不是全部的實施例。基於本說明書實施例，本領域普通技術人員在沒有作出創造性勞動前提下所獲得的所有其他實施例，都應當屬於本申請保護的範圍。
圖1為本說明書實施例提供的一種應用功能啟動方法的流程示意圖，從程式角度而言，流程的執行主體為搭載於終端的應用客戶端，比如，支付應用的客戶端、即時通信應用的客戶端等。終端比如是手機、平板電腦、智慧型手錶、或者車機等。
圖1中的流程可以包括以下步驟：
S102：應用客戶端接收用戶輸入的生物特徵。
在本說明書實施例中，應用客戶端可以向用戶提供認證介面，以提示用戶輸入生物特徵，認證介面可以是統一的，也可以是不統一的，所述的認證介面統一指：對於同一用戶的不同的生物特徵，統一用一個介面進行認證，亦即為用戶提供了一個統一的認證入口。對於認證介面不統一的情況，比如，對於每種類型的生物特徵，可以分別有一個不同的認證介面，分別從不同的入口進入。認證介面可以在應用客戶端啟動後即自動展示，也可以在啟動後再由用戶手動觸發(比如點擊進入認證介面)展示。
另外，對於某些生物特徵(比如指紋等)，若應用客戶端所在設備處於息屏狀態時，也不影響用戶輸入這些生物特徵，則應用客戶端未必要向用戶提供認證介面，從而用戶可以更隨心所欲地操作，甚至無需注視設備螢幕。
在本說明書實施例中，應用客戶端需要具有相應的感測器來接收用戶輸入的生物特徵。生物特徵不做具體限定，只要設備支援即可，比如包括以下至少一種類型：指紋、人臉、虹膜、聲音、掌紋、手寫簽名、耳廓、手型、脈搏、骨骼、步態、去氧核糖核酸(DNA)等。
S104：觸發所述輸入的生物特徵與所述用戶預先錄入的生物特徵集合的匹配過程，其中，所述生物特徵集合中包含多個不同的生物特徵，所包含的各不同的生物特徵分別與不同的應用功能之間具有預設對應關係。
在本說明書實施例中，每個生物特徵集合可以分別由單個用戶錄入，則該生物特徵集合中包含的是該單個用戶的生物特徵。生物特徵集合初始時為空，後續由用戶根據自己需要錄入一個或者多個生物特徵。步驟S104假定用戶已經預先錄入了多個不同的生物特徵。
用戶預先錄入的生物特徵集合，是作為認證匹配時所參考的標準，匹配成功則通過認證，否則未通過認證。生物特徵集合中包含每個不同的生物特徵包含多少內容不做具體限定，但應能足以單獨用於認證用戶，比如，一個手指的指紋、一張人臉等在本說明書中均能稱為一個生物特徵。
生物特徵與應用功能之間的對應關係可以由用戶根據自己的喜好而預設，也可以由應用客戶端默認預設，對於後一種情況，可以允許用戶修改默認設置。生物特徵用於在認證成功後自動啟動對應的應用功能。可以允許生物特徵集合中包含的多個不同的生物特徵對應於同一個應用功能。
在本說明書實施例中，匹配過程可以由應用客戶端執行，或者為了減輕應用客戶端的負擔，也可以由應用服務端至少部分執行匹配過程，應用客戶端能獲得匹配結果或者基於匹配結果的下一步動作指示即可。
S106：透過所述匹配過程，若所述生物特徵集合中存在與所述輸入的生物特徵匹配成功的生物特徵，則啟動所述匹配成功的生物特徵對應的應用功能。
在本說明書實施例中，所啟動的應用功能可以是用戶當即可視的，比如，展示相應的功能頁面。若所啟動的應用功能當前未必需要用戶可視，則也可以在後台啟動，而暫時不在前台表現，比如，錄音功能、近場通信(NFC)功能等。
對於不同業務的應用客戶端，所述的應用功能可能有所區別，這裡不做具體限定。比如，對於支付應用，應用功能可以包括以下至少一種：用於掃描二維碼的功能(比如掃一掃以付款、掃一掃以添加好友等)、用於展示具有指定用途的二維碼的功能(比如展示付款碼、展示名片碼等)。
透過圖1的方法，能夠針對同一應用客戶端，透過認證用戶輸入的不同的生物特徵，相應啟動不同的應用功能，所啟動的應用功能與用戶輸入的生物特徵具有對應關係，該對應關係可以由用戶根據自己喜好預設或者由應用客戶端默認預設，這樣的應用功能啟動方案有利於減少用戶操作，便利性更好。
基於圖1的方法，本說明書實施例還提供了該方法的一些具體實施方案，下面進行說明。
在本說明書實施例中，前面提到了生物特徵集合中包含多個不同的生物特徵。所述的不同的生物特徵可以指類型不同的生物特徵，和/或類型相同但內容不同的生物特徵。比如，用戶的指紋和人臉屬於類型不同的生物特徵，用戶的左手食指指紋和左手拇指指紋屬於類型相同(均為指紋)但內容不同(是同一用戶不同手指的指紋)的生物特徵。
在本說明書實施例中，考慮到統一的認證介面有助於提高對用戶的易用性，以及有助於減少實施成本，則對於步驟S102，所述接收用戶輸入的生物特徵，具體可以包括：展示統一的認證頁面；接收用戶針對所述統一的認證頁面輸入的生物特徵。比如，假定用戶預先錄入了指紋和人臉這兩種生物特徵，則該統一的認證頁面可以提示用戶輸入指紋或者人臉，進一步地提示透過將手指按壓在設備上的指定感應區域(比如設備上的某個實體按鍵上等)輸入指紋，以及自動打開前置攝像頭並展示取景框，提示透過將人臉對準該取景框而輸入人臉。
在本說明書實施例中，對於步驟S106，所述啟動所述匹配成功的生物特徵對應的應用功能，具體可以包括：從當前頁面跳轉至所述匹配成功的生物特徵對應的應用功能的功能頁面；或者，若所述應用客戶端所在設備處於息屏狀態，則喚醒螢幕並展示所述匹配成功的生物特徵對應的應用功能的功能頁面。對於後一種情況，未必所有的生物特徵和應用功能都適用，對於適用的情況，則用戶無需注視螢幕，有利於更為便利地利用所開啟的應用功能完成業務，比如，利用指紋認證後開啟NFC付款或者開啟錄音等。
在本說明書實施例中，還提供了對應於圖1的一種生物特徵錄入方法的流程示意圖，如圖2所示。
圖2中的流程可以包括以下步驟，透過執行該流程能夠錄入生物特徵集合中的各生物特徵：
S202：展示該生物特徵的錄入介面。
S204：接收並保存所述用戶針對該錄入介面錄入的該生物特徵，以及所述用戶設置的該生物特徵與指定的應用功能之間的對應關係。
為了便於用戶設置，應用客戶端可以為用戶提供更多的輔助。比如，首先向用戶展示可配置的多個應用功能，用戶從中選定一個應用功能，然後，進入錄入介面，用戶錄入某個生物特徵作為所選定的應用功能對應的生物特徵；或者，用戶也可以先錄入生物特徵，再選定應用功能；或者，應用客戶端預設設定各生物特徵類型與各應用功能之間的對應關係，則用戶只管錄入生物特徵即可，而無需選定應用功能；等等。
根據以上說明，為了便於理解，本說明書實施例還提供了一種實際應用場景下，上述應用功能啟動方法的一種具體實施方案的原理示意圖，以及頁面效果示意圖，分別如圖3、圖4所示。在該實際應用場景下，假定以不同的指紋啟動不同的應用功能。
在圖3中，子圖(a)表示錄入指紋的過程，子圖(b)表示應用功能啟動的過程。在子圖(a)中，用戶進入應用客戶端的設置頁面，選擇指紋設置，然後錄入其中一個手指的指紋，並針對該指紋選擇一個應用功能，保存設置，在設置成功後，該指紋與該應用功能即具有了對應關係。在子圖(b)中，用戶打開應用客戶端，應用客戶端則展示指紋輸入頁面，用戶可以輸入自己之前已預先錄入的多個指紋(記作：指紋1、指紋2、…、指紋N，分別與應用功能1、應用功能2、…、應用功能N具有對應關係)中的某個指紋，應用客戶端相應地啟動對應的應用功能，用戶進而能夠使用該應用功能。
在圖4中，以兩組子圖分別示出了利用兩個不同的指紋對兩種不同的應用功能的啟動的頁面效果圖。在第一組子圖中，用戶點擊啟動桌面的應用9，應用9展示統一的指紋認證介面，提示用戶輸入指紋，用戶輸入了右手食指指紋，假定該右手食指指紋與應用9的乘車碼功能具有預設對應關係，則應用9啟動該乘車碼功能，具體比如展示乘車碼以便用戶使用。在第二組子圖中，用戶點擊啟動桌面的應用9，應用9展示統一的指紋認證介面，提示用戶輸入指紋，用戶輸入了右手拇指指紋，假定該右手拇指指紋與應用9的掃碼功能具有預設對應關係，則應用9啟動該掃碼功能，具體比如自動啟動後置攝像頭進行掃描，並展示掃描框提示用戶對準所要掃描的二維碼。
在本說明書實施例中，上述應用功能啟動方法除了能夠應用於應用客戶端，還能夠應用於作業系統，比如，手機上的安卓作業系統等，以實現透過不同的生物特徵，啟動不同的應用客戶端或者應用功能。
例如，作業系統接收用戶輸入的生物特徵；觸發所述輸入的生物特徵與所述用戶預先錄入的生物特徵集合的匹配過程，其中，所述生物特徵集合中包含多個不同的生物特徵，所包含的各不同的生物特徵分別與不同的應用客戶端之間具有預設對應關係；透過所述匹配過程，若所述生物特徵集合中存在與所述輸入的生物特徵匹配成功的生物特徵，則啟動所述匹配成功的生物特徵對應的應用客戶端。

本說明書中的各個實施例均採用遞進的方式描述，各個實施例之間相同相似的部分互相參見即可，每個實施例重點說明的都是與其他實施例的不同之處。尤其，對於裝置、設備、非易失性電腦儲存媒體實施例而言，由於其基本相似於方法實施例，所以描述的比較簡單，相關之處參見方法實施例的部分說明即可。
本說明書實施例提供的裝置、設備、非易失性電腦儲存媒體與方法是對應的，因此，裝置、設備、非易失性電腦儲存媒體也具有與對應方法類似的有益技術效果，由於上面已經對方法的有益技術效果進行了詳細說明，因此，這裡不再贅述對應裝置、設備、非易失性電腦儲存媒體的有益技術效果。
在20世紀90年代，對於一個技術的改進可以很明顯地區分是硬體上的改進(例如，對二極體、電晶體、開關等電路結構的改進)還是軟體上的改進(對於方法流程的改進)。然而，隨著技術的發展，當今的很多方法流程的改進已經可以視為硬體電路結構的直接改進。設計人員幾乎都透過將改進的方法流程編程到硬體電路中來得到相應的硬體電路結構。因此，不能說一個方法流程的改進就不能用硬體實體模組來實現。例如，可編程邏輯裝置(Programmable Logic Device, PLD)(例如現場可編程閘陣列(Field Programmable Gate Array，FPGA))就是這樣一種積體電路，其邏輯功能由用戶對裝置編程來確定。由設計人員自行編程來把一個數位系統“集成”在一片PLD上，而不需要請晶片製造廠商來設計和製作專用的積體電路晶片。而且，如今，取代手工地製作積體電路晶片，這種編程也多半改用“邏輯編譯器(logic compiler)”軟體來實現，它與程式開發撰寫時所用的軟體編譯器相類似，而要編譯之前的原始代碼也得用特定的編程語言來撰寫，此稱之為硬體描述語言(Hardware Description Language，HDL)，而HDL也並非僅有一種，而是有許多種，如ABEL(Advanced Boolean Expression Language)、AHDL(Altera Hardware Description Language)、Confluence、CUPL(Cornell University Programming Language)、HDCal、JHDL(Java Hardware Description Language)、Lava、Lola、MyHDL、PALASM、RHDL(Ruby Hardware Description Language)等，目前最普遍使用的是VHDL(Very-High-Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language)與Verilog。本領域技術人員也應該清楚，只需要將方法流程用上述幾種硬體描述語言稍作邏輯編程並編程到積體電路中，就可以很容易得到實現該邏輯方法流程的硬體電路。
控制器可以按任何適當的方式實現，例如，控制器可以採取例如微處理器或處理器以及儲存可由該(微)處理器執行的電腦可讀程式碼(例如軟體或韌體)的電腦可讀媒體、邏輯閘、開關、專用積體電路(Application Specific Integrated Circuit，ASIC)、可編程邏輯控制器和嵌入微控制器的形式，控制器的例子包括但不限於以下微控制器：ARC 625D、Atmel AT91SAM、Microchip PIC18F26K20以及Silicone Labs C8051F320，記憶體控制器還可以被實現為記憶體的控制邏輯的一部分。本領域技術人員也知道，除了以純電腦可讀程式碼方式實現控制器以外，完全可以透過將方法步驟進行邏輯編程來使得控制器以邏輯閘、開關、專用積體電路、可編程邏輯控制器和嵌入微控制器等的形式來實現相同功能。因此這種控制器可以被認為是一種硬體部件，而對其內包括的用於實現各種功能的裝置也可以視為硬體部件內的結構。或者甚至，可以將用於實現各種功能的裝置視為既可以是實現方法的軟體模組又可以是硬體部件內的結構。
上述實施例闡明的系統、裝置、模組或單元，具體可以由電腦晶片或實體實現，或者由具有某種功能的產品來實現。一種典型的實現設備為電腦。具體的，電腦例如可以為個人電腦、膝上型電腦、行動電話、相機電話、智慧型電話、個人數位助理、媒體播放機、導航設備、電子郵件設備、遊戲控制台、平板電腦、可穿戴設備或者這些設備中的任何設備的組合。
為了描述的方便，描述以上裝置時以功能分為各種單元分別描述。當然，在實施本說明書時可以把各單元的功能在同一個或多個軟體和/或硬體中實現。

這些電腦程式指令也可儲存在能引導電腦或其他可編程資料處理設備以特定方式工作的電腦可讀記憶體中，使得儲存在該電腦可讀記憶體中的指令產生包括指令裝置的製造品，該指令裝置實現在流程圖一個流程或多個流程和/或方框圖一個方框或多個方框中指定的功能。

在一個典型的配置中，計算設備包括一個或多個處理器(CPU)、輸入/輸出介面、網路介面和記憶體。
記憶體可能包括電腦可讀媒體中的非永久性記憶體，隨機存取記憶體(RAM)和/或非易失性記憶體等形式，如唯讀記憶體(ROM)或快閃記憶體(flash RAM)。記憶體是電腦可讀媒體的示例。

In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this specification, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this specification in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this specification. Obviously, the described The embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this specification, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of this application.
Figure 1 is a schematic flow chart of an application function activation method provided by an embodiment of this specification. From a program perspective, the execution subject of the process is the application client mounted on the terminal, such as the client of the payment application and the customer of the instant messaging application. Wait. The terminal is, for example, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a smart watch, or a car machine.
The process in Figure 1 can include the following steps:
S102: The application client receives the biological characteristics input by the user.
In the embodiment of this specification, the application client can provide the user with an authentication interface to prompt the user to input biometrics. The authentication interface may be unified or non-uniform. The authentication interface refers to: Different biological characteristics are uniformly authenticated with one interface, that is, a unified authentication portal is provided for users. For situations where the authentication interface is not uniform, for example, for each type of biometrics, there can be a different authentication interface, which can be entered from different entrances. The authentication interface can be displayed automatically after the application client is started, or it can be manually triggered by the user (for example, click to enter the authentication interface) after the application is started.
In addition, for some biological characteristics (such as fingerprints, etc.), if the device where the application client is located is in the off-screen state, it does not affect the user's input of these biological characteristics, and the application client does not need to provide the user with an authentication interface, so that the user can update Do whatever you want without even looking at the device screen.
In the embodiment of this specification, the application client needs to have a corresponding sensor to receive the biological characteristics input by the user. Biometrics are not specifically limited, as long as the device supports them, such as at least one of the following types: fingerprint, face, iris, voice, palm print, handwritten signature, auricle, hand shape, pulse, bone, gait, deoxyribose Nucleic acid (DNA) etc.
S104: Trigger the matching process between the inputted biometrics and the biometrics set pre-entered by the user, wherein the biometrics set contains a plurality of different biometrics, and the different biometrics contained are different from each other. There is a preset correspondence between the application functions.
In the embodiment of this specification, each biometric feature set can be entered by a single user, and the biometric feature set contains the biometric feature of the single user. The biometric feature set is initially empty, and the user subsequently enters one or more biometric features according to his needs. Step S104 assumes that the user has entered a number of different biological characteristics in advance.
The biometric feature set entered by the user in advance is used as a reference standard for authentication matching. If the matching is successful, the authentication will be passed, otherwise the authentication will not be passed. There is no specific limitation on how much content each different biological feature contains in the biological feature set, but it should be enough to be used to authenticate the user alone. For example, a fingerprint of a finger, a face, etc. can all be referred to as one in this manual. Biological characteristics.
The correspondence between biometrics and application functions can be preset by the user according to their own preferences, or can be preset by the application client by default. In the latter case, the user can be allowed to modify the default settings. Biometrics are used to automatically start the corresponding application function after successful authentication. It is possible to allow multiple different biological features contained in the biological feature set to correspond to the same application function.
In the embodiments of this specification, the matching process can be performed by the application client, or in order to reduce the burden of the application client, the matching process can also be performed at least partially by the application server, and the application client can obtain the matching result or the next step based on the matching result Action instructions are sufficient.
S106: Through the matching process, if there is a biometric feature that is successfully matched with the input biometric feature in the biometric feature set, start the application function corresponding to the biometric feature that is successfully matched.
In the embodiment of this specification, the activated application function may be immediately visible to the user, for example, displaying a corresponding function page. If the activated application function does not currently need to be visible to the user, it can also be activated in the background instead of temporarily performing in the foreground, such as a recording function, a near field communication (NFC) function, etc.
For application clients of different services, the application functions described may be different, which is not specifically limited here. For example, for a payment application, the application function can include at least one of the following: a function for scanning a QR code (such as scanning to pay, scanning to add friends, etc.), and a function for displaying a QR code with a designated purpose ( For example, display payment code, display business card code, etc.).
Through the method in Figure 1, it is possible to activate different application functions corresponding to the same application client by authenticating different biometrics input by the user. The activated application functions have a corresponding relationship with the biometric input by the user, and the corresponding relationship can be determined by The user presets according to his own preferences or is preset by the application client by default. Such an application function activation scheme is beneficial to reduce user operations and is more convenient.
Based on the method in FIG. 1, the examples of this specification also provide some specific implementations of the method, which are described below.
In the embodiments of this specification, it was mentioned that the biological feature set contains multiple different biological features. The different biological characteristics may refer to biological characteristics of different types, and/or biological characteristics of the same type but different contents. For example, the user's fingerprint and face belong to different types of biometric features, and the user's left index finger fingerprint and left thumb fingerprint are biometric features of the same type (both fingerprints) but different content (the fingerprints of different fingers of the same user).
In the embodiment of this specification, considering that a unified authentication interface helps to improve the usability for users and helps reduce the implementation cost, for step S102, the biometric input received by the user may specifically include: Display a unified authentication page; receive the biometric input of the user for the unified authentication page. For example, assuming that the user has pre-entered the two biological characteristics of fingerprint and face, the unified authentication page can prompt the user to input fingerprint or face, and further prompt by pressing the finger on the designated sensing area on the device (such as the device A certain physical button on the keyboard, etc.) input fingerprints, and automatically turn on the front camera and display the viewfinder frame, prompting to input the face by aligning the face to the viewfinder frame.
In the embodiment of this specification, for step S106, the activating the application function corresponding to the successfully matched biometric feature may specifically include: jumping from the current page to the function page of the application function corresponding to the successfully matched biometric feature; Or, if the device where the application client is located is in the off-screen state, the screen is awakened and the function page of the application function corresponding to the successfully matched biometric feature is displayed. In the latter case, not all biometrics and application functions are applicable. For applicable cases, the user does not need to look at the screen, which is conducive to more convenient use of the opened application functions to complete the business, for example, the use of fingerprint authentication and then turn on NFC Make payment or start recording, etc.
In the embodiment of this specification, a schematic flowchart of a biometrics entry method corresponding to FIG. 1 is also provided, as shown in FIG. 2.
The process in Fig. 2 may include the following steps, and each biological feature in the biological feature set can be entered by executing the process:
S202: Display the input interface of the biological feature.
S204: Receive and save the biometric feature entered by the user for the entry interface, and the correspondence between the biometric feature set by the user and the designated application function.
In order to facilitate user settings, the application client can provide users with more assistance. For example, first show the user multiple configurable application functions, the user selects an application function from them, and then enters the input interface, the user enters a certain biological characteristic as the biological characteristic corresponding to the selected application function; or the user can also first Enter the biometrics, and then select the application function; or, the application client presets the corresponding relationship between each biometric type and each application function, and the user only needs to enter the biometrics without selecting the application function; etc.
Based on the above description, in order to facilitate understanding, the embodiments of this specification also provide a schematic diagram of a specific implementation of the above application function activation method in an actual application scenario, and a schematic diagram of page effects, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, respectively. In this actual application scenario, it is assumed that different application functions are started with different fingerprints.
In Figure 3, sub-figure (a) shows the process of enrolling fingerprints, and sub-figure (b) shows the process of starting the application function. In sub-figure (a), the user enters the settings page of the application client, selects fingerprint settings, then enters the fingerprint of one of the fingers, selects an application function for the fingerprint, and saves the settings. After the settings are successful, the fingerprint and the application The function has a corresponding relationship. In sub-figure (b), the user opens the application client, and the application client displays the fingerprint input page. The user can input multiple fingerprints (denoted as: fingerprint 1, fingerprint 2,..., fingerprint N, Respectively corresponding to a certain fingerprint in application function 1, application function 2, ..., application function N), the application client correspondingly starts the corresponding application function, and the user can then use the application function.
In FIG. 4, two sets of sub-pictures respectively show the page effect diagrams of using two different fingerprints to activate two different application functions. In the first group of sub-pictures, the user clicks to launch application 9 on the desktop. Application 9 displays a unified fingerprint authentication interface and prompts the user to enter a fingerprint. The user enters the fingerprint of the right index finger. It is assumed that the fingerprint of the right index finger is associated with the ride code function of application 9. If there is a preset corresponding relationship, the application 9 activates the ride code function, for example, the ride code is displayed for the user to use. In the second set of sub-pictures, the user clicks to start the application 9 on the desktop. Application 9 displays a unified fingerprint authentication interface, prompting the user to enter a fingerprint. The user enters the fingerprint of the right thumb. It is assumed that the fingerprint of the right thumb and the scanning function of the application 9 have If the corresponding relationship is preset, the application 9 starts the code scanning function, for example, automatically starts the rear camera to scan, and displays a scanning box to prompt the user to align the QR code to be scanned.

The foregoing describes specific embodiments of this specification. Other embodiments are within the scope of the attached patent application. In some cases, the actions or steps described in the scope of the patent application may be performed in a different order from the embodiment and still achieve desired results. In addition, the processes depicted in the drawings do not necessarily require the specific order or sequential order shown in order to achieve the desired result. In some embodiments, multiplexing and parallel processing are also possible or may be advantageous.
The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and the same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. In particular, for the device, equipment, and non-volatile computer storage medium embodiments, since they are basically similar to the method embodiments, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts can be referred to the description of the method embodiments.
The device, equipment, non-volatile computer storage medium and method provided in the embodiments of this specification correspond to each other. Therefore, the device, equipment, and non-volatile computer storage medium also have beneficial technical effects similar to the corresponding method. The beneficial technical effects of the method are described in detail, therefore, the beneficial technical effects of corresponding devices, equipment, and non-volatile computer storage media are not repeated here.
In the 1990s, the improvement of a technology can be clearly distinguished from the improvement of the hardware (for example, the improvement of the circuit structure of diodes, transistors, switches, etc.) or the improvement of the software (for the method flow Improve). However, with the development of technology, the improvement of many methods and processes of today can be regarded as a direct improvement of the hardware circuit structure. Designers almost always get the corresponding hardware circuit structure by programming the improved method flow into the hardware circuit. Therefore, it cannot be said that the improvement of a method flow cannot be realized by the hardware entity module. For example, a Programmable Logic Device (PLD) (such as a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)) is such an integrated circuit whose logic function is determined by the user's programming of the device. It is programmed by the designer to "integrate" a digital system on a PLD, without requiring the chip manufacturer to design and produce a dedicated integrated circuit chip. Moreover, nowadays, instead of manually making integrated circuit chips, this kind of programming is mostly realized by using "logic compiler" software, which is similar to the software compiler used in program development and writing, but requires compilation. The original code before has to be written in a specific programming language, which is called Hardware Description Language (HDL), and HDL is not only one, but there are many, such as ABEL (Advanced Boolean Expression Language), AHDL (Altera Hardware Description Language), Confluence, CUPL (Cornell University Programming Language), HDCal, JHDL (Java Hardware Description Language), Lava, Lola, MyHDL, PALASM, RHDL (Ruby Hardware Description Language), etc., currently the most Commonly used are VHDL (Very-High-Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language) and Verilog. It should also be clear to those skilled in the art that only a little logic programming of the method flow in the above hardware description languages and programming into an integrated circuit can easily obtain the hardware circuit that implements the logic method flow.
The controller can be implemented in any suitable manner. For example, the controller can take the form of, for example, a microprocessor or a processor and a computer readable program code (such as software or firmware) that can be executed by the (micro) processor. Media, logic gates, switches, application specific integrated circuits (Application Specific Integrated Circuit, ASIC), programmable logic controllers and embedded microcontrollers. Examples of controllers include but are not limited to the following microcontrollers: ARC 625D, Atmel AT91SAM, Microchip PIC18F26K20 and Silicon Labs C8051F320, the memory controller can also be implemented as a part of the control logic of the memory. Those skilled in the art also know that, in addition to implementing the controller in a purely computer-readable code, it is entirely possible to program the method steps to make the controller use logic gates, switches, dedicated integrated circuits, programmable logic controllers and Embedded in the form of a microcontroller, etc. to achieve the same function. Therefore, such a controller can be regarded as a hardware component, and the devices included in it for realizing various functions can also be regarded as a structure within the hardware component. Or even, the device for realizing various functions can be regarded as both a software module for realizing the method and a structure within a hardware component.
