  • Patent number: 7277810
    Abstract: A calibration engine to eliminate disconnects between both manual and automated calibration procedures. It abstracts the process of procedure development such that procedure writers produce automated procedures without being computer programmers. By organizing calibration procedure elements in a relational database format, a relational automated calibration engine (RACE) provides the mechanism whereby a single calibration procedure is executed in either a manual, automated, or semi-automated fashion. The engine operates both with and without an installed operating system and relational database server. Interfaces ensure interoperability with other laboratory software elements such as scheduling, reporting, and measurement uncertainty.

  • Patent number: 4825050
    Abstract: A system for a data protection executing financial transactions employing cryptographic techniques. The system comprises an encoded card, which has been initially encrypted using the National Bureau of Standards Data Encryption Standard Algorithm. A subsequent encryption utilizes a private key of a public key cryptosystem is completed resulting in an account number and an uncoded identifier which are placed on the card. The encoded card may be placed in a sender unit which decrypts the public key. The user that enters a personal identifier in the sender unit. The data is transferred to a receiving unit that decrypts the transmitted data utilizing the private key which is unknown to both the user and the sender unit.

  • Patent number: 4228736
    Abstract: A printing apparatus has a holder which incorporates a permanent magnet and has a printing element or elements containing magnetically soft material.In use a printing element is held against a thin positioning portion by the attraction of the permanent magnet. To engage a printing element the printing element is placed in contact with the positioning portion and the permanent magnet is brought up to the positioning portion. To release a printing element the permanent magnet is moved away from the positioning portion.Printing elements may be aligned printing-face down in an aligning member. The printing elements have depicted on the face opposite the printing surface the character on the printing surface.In one version a printing apparatus is used as a hand-stamp, and in another version a printing apparatus is inked and used by hand-rolling.
