In some examples, a diagnostic device includes a reusable part to receive a container of a fluid, the reusable part reusable for a plurality of diagnostic tests. The diagnostic device further includes a disposable part detachably attached to the reusable part and comprising a sample collector to collect a target sample of a living being. The diagnostic device further includes a tester comprising a fluid channel to transport the fluid to combine the fluid and the target sample to form a fluid combination, and to use the fluid combination to diagnose a condition of the target sample.

Parts for diagnostic devices

A computer security system comprises a security module adapted to control access to a secure computer resource by a user via a client based on verification of a security credential provided by the user. The computer security system also comprises verification data disposed on the client and accessible by the security module. The security module is adapted to enable the user to recover the security credential based on a response received from the user associated with the verification data.

Computer security system and method

In one embodiment of the present invention, a portable computing device for wireless communications comprises a first network interface for communicating with a public wireless wide area network (WWAN), a second network interface for communicating with a private wireless local area network (WLAN), and a processor executing under control of software instructions, the software instructions defining a gateway protocol, the gateway protocol establishing the portable computing device as an access point within the private WLAN after the wireless presence on the public WWAN is established.

Portable computing device for wireless communications and method of operation

An electronic device has a display in which the casing of the display includes a plurality of recessed cavities into which radio and antenna modules can be inserted to provide the electronic device with a wireless communication capability. The display can have cavities for one or more radios and one or more antenna modules. A radio electrically connects to one or more antenna modules via conductor(s) contained within the display and connects to the host electronic device via a serial bus (e.g., USB). Accordingly, the display can have a plurality of radio/antenna combinations thereby concurrently providing the electronic device with multiple wireless communication capabilities.

Wireless communication system integrated into a computer display

A computer security system comprises a self-managed device having an authentication system for controlling access to the self-managed device by a user. The system also comprises a security module adapted to authenticate an identity of the user and, in response to user authentication, automatically generate, transparently to the user, device credential data verifiable by the authentication system to enable user access to the self-managed device.
