Abstract: The present invention is of a sterilization device, which features a sterilization chamber for accommodating at least one item for sterilization, a power means for powering the device, a means for providing a sterilization medium for sterilizing the item and a plurality of sterilization cycle programs. The plurality of sterilization cycle programs include at least one S class sterilization cycle program and at least one B class sterilization cycle program. In a first state the sterilization device provides sterilization using the at least one S class sterilization cycle program and the at least one B class sterilization cycle program is locked and unavailable for use by a user. The present invention provides a sterilization device which is adaptable to unlock and provide B class sterilization. Furthermore, the present invention provides a method of converting a convertible S Class sterilization device to a B Class sterilization device.

Abstract: A last mile delivery system (LAMIS system) for delivery of parcels to recipients includes Automatic Delivery Machines (ADMs) that are located in public places. Each ADM has a local computer and data and communication network connection, and a set of cells for storing parcels, and a single access mechanism for each such set adapted to provide a recipient with access to a parcel stored in a cell while preventing access to parcels in other cells. Control centers use an ADM database with locations of the ADMs, a LAMIS server computer program for handling the data associated with the operation of the system. The control center has data and communication network connecting the LAMIS server with the local computers of the ADMs. The local computers are adapted to identify the recipient and to provide access to the parcel in the cell of the chosen ADM.

Abstract: There is provided a Last Mile delivery system (LAMIS system) for delivery of parcels to recipients, including a plurality of Automatic Delivery Machines (ADMs), located in public places and other places convenient for the recipients. Each ADM has a local computer and data and comunication network connection, and at least a set of cells, possibly of adjustable size, for storing parcels, and a single access mechanism for each such set, adapted to provide a recipient with access to a parcel stored in a cell while preventing access to parcels in other cells. The system further includes computerized control centers using an ADM database with locations of the ADMs, a LAMIS server computer program for handling the data associated with the operation of the system, which enables a multiple choice of an ADM for the delivery or for sending of the parcel, by using the ADM database. The control center has data and communication network connecting the LAMIS server with the local computers of the ADMs.
