TL;DR: In this article, a method and device for providing a service record for an application (e.g., a legacy application) running on a virtual serial port of a wireless transceiver device, such as a Bluetooth-enabled device.
Abstract: A method and device for providing a service record for an application (e.g., a legacy application) running on a virtual serial port of a wireless transceiver device, such as a Bluetooth-enabled device. The virtual serial port emulates a serial connection (e.g., a serial cable) for the application. The virtual serial port for the application is opened by a virtual serial port driver. In accordance with the present embodiment of the present invention, the virtual serial port driver also provides the service name of the application. The virtual serial port driver can derive the service name from the name of the application, or the virtual serial port driver can use a default name. Thus, the virtual serial port driver performs the additional function of automatically providing a service name for a application, thereby introducing a standard, efficient and user-friendly approach for providing a readily-identifiable service name for a legacy application.

TL;DR: In this article, a Bluetooth serial adapter comprising a Bluetooth connection module for conducting Bluetooth communication with another Bluetooth enabled device, a serial connector SP allowing connection of a serial cable between the adapter and a device having a serial port, and a serial to Bluetooth interface arranged for: receiving serial connection control commands input via the serial connector; mapping received serial connection controller commands to Bluetooth connection events; and outputting the so determined Bluetooth connection control events to the Bluetooth connection modules.
Abstract: A Bluetooth serial adapter comprising a Bluetooth connection module (21) for conducting Bluetooth communication with another Bluetooth enabled device, a serial connector SP allowing connection of a serial cable between the adapter and a device having a serial port, and a serial to Bluetooth interface (23) arranged for: receiving serial connection control commands input via the serial connector; mapping received serial connection control commands to Bluetooth connection control events; and outputting the so determined Bluetooth connection control events to the Bluetooth connection module. The interface (23) may be implemented by making use of a virtual machine provided on the Bluetooth chip.

TL;DR: In this paper, a portable computer including a chargeable battery and an AC line adapter is used to emulate a full-UPS-class device to emulate signals to and from the internal battery and the AC charger.
Abstract: A portable computer including a chargeable battery and an AC line adapter controls the battery and adapter to emulate a full UPS-class device. A controller of the portable computer with the chargeable battery and the AC line adapter emulates the conventional operation of an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) and a serial cable connecting the UPS to the portable computer. The controller includes a software driver and Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) program code to emulate signals to and from the internal battery and the AC charger.
