Patent number: 10987668Abstract: Provided herein are a test card, method of manufacturing the same, and mold for manufacturing the same. The test card may include a body and a well. The body may include a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The well may define an opening extending from the first surface to the second surface and configured to receive a sample therein. The well may further include a shelf extending into the opening, such that the opening is narrower between the shelf and the second surface than between the shelf and the first surface.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2017Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Assignee: bioMerieux, Inc.Inventors: Ross Mulder, Noah Monroe, Raymond O'Bear, Brian Livingston, Patrick Alan Yerbic

Patent number: 8774407Abstract: An example method is provided and includes providing an encrypted image to a central processing unit of an integrated circuit and decrypting the encrypted image using a cryptographic key element. The cryptographic key element is embedded within the integrated circuit. The method also includes evaluating the decrypted image in order to verify its authenticity, and executing the decrypted image if the decrypted image is successfully verified. In more particular embodiments, the verification includes utilizing an executable and linkable format (ELF) to signify that encryption has been enabled for at least a portion of the encrypted image. A processor within the integrated circuit can be provided with the cryptographic key element that corresponds to a product family of devices. The method can also include providing a corresponding image of the decrypted image to an external memory of the integrated circuit.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2010Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Mark W. Eklund, Jared B. Pendleton, Richard Brian Livingston, Robert T. Bell, Steven Joseph Rich

Publication number: 20080126867Abstract: A system and method for selective regression testing is described. The system and method provides a test script database identifying multiple portions of a first low level code (e.g., assembly code) and tests associated with at least one of the multiple portions of first low level code. A comparator may identify a change set between the multiple portions of the first low level code and corresponding portions of modified low level code. After the database has been queried by a changed set query module, using the identified change set as key, an optimum or reduced test suite is identified from the database, to be run on the modified low level code, thereby to verify the change set.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2006Publication date: May 29, 2008Inventors: Vinod Pandarinathan, Robert Sargent, Richard Brian Livingston, James Kevin Lambert, Michael W.
