Abstract: In various embodiments, authentication stations are distributed within a facility, particularly in spaces where mobile devices are predominantly used—e.g., a hospital's emergency department. Each such station includes a series of authentication devices. Mobile device may run applications for locating the nearest such station and, in some embodiments, pair wirelessly with the station so that authentication thereon will accord a user access to the desired resource via a mobile device.

Abstract: Representative embodiments of operating a secured device requiring user authentication include receiving a request from a user for operating the device without prior authentication; granting the user temporary access to the device in accordance with a security policy that specifies a predetermined time interval and/or a predetermined number of device operations within which authentication must occur to continue at least some operations of the device; computationally storing an audit trail identifying the temporary access and actions performed during the temporary access; and upon determining that authentication has not been provided within the predetermined time interval or number of device operations, preventing at least some operations of the device and updating the audit trail to specify expiration of the temporary access.

Abstract: In various embodiments, the predicted location of a user within an institutional space is associated with a node at or near that location, and a virtual desktop is prepared before a user has actually logged on and authenticated. Although users are not accorded access to applications and sensitive data until they have properly authenticated themselves, the virtual desktop and associated data are assembled and retrieved in the background in order to eliminate delay following log-on.

Abstract: A system and method for generating and promulgating Physician Order Entries. The system uses traditional user interface to obtain physician input, and applies context-free grammars to produce a physician order in a standard format including the expected jargon and syntax of conventional physician orders.
