Abstract: A portable hub for updating a memory in a plurality of electronic devices is disclosed. The memory in the electronic devices is adapted to store an encryption algorithm and a data set. Each of said devices also has a security certificate, a remote wireless card and a processor. The portable hub includes a chassis and a grip on the chassis to facilitate movement of the portable hub by a single person from a first geographic location to a second geographic location. The portable hub also includes a power supply and a server having a main memory, an input and a display. The portable hub also includes a main wireless card coupled to the server and a security certificate associated with the server. The main memory is adapted to store a main encryption algorithm and a main data set to be transferred to the plurality of electronic devices. The server is programmed to provide a prompt via the display and to receive an answer to the prompt via the input.

Abstract: A process (100) and library element (14) product by that process for use with a design tool (18) to incorporate a complex electronic system (CES) (10) into a printed circuit board (PCB) (12) under development. The CES (10) is complex by virtue of having a plurality of connectors (20). The process (100) integrates physical data, and optionally also functional and other data, about the CES (10) into the library element (14). The library element (14) then may be stored and used from a conventional library (16) in the manner already widely used in the art for less complex elements.
