Abstract:

A system and method for providing, managing, and accessing a multi-user secure portable database using secure memory cards is provided. The database has a secure portion for storing security keys and a non-secure portion for encrypted data files. Access to the encrypted data files is controlled by assigning access rights through an access control matrix to each encrypted data file according to a hierarchical structure of users. A user requesting access is identified in the hierarchy, associated with a key for allowing the requested access, and the requested access allowed to a file in accordance with the rights allocated through the access control matrix. A patient can selectively grant access to encrypted medical records on his card to a physician. Authentication of the owner/patient is preferably required. Other records required by emergency medical personnel are readable from the same card without requiring permission from the patient.

Abstract:

A system for facilitating the arrangement of software methods within an object built using an object oriented programming framework. The order of the methods is specified within a graphical user interface adapted for organizing the methods. Selecting an object in a list causes a dialog box to appear. Within the dialog box is an editable field that enables a unique sequential integer ascending from the number “1” to be entered corresponding to a method in the list. After an integer is assigned to a method, the object can then be selected and dragged and dropped into a window. Each method of the dropped object, to which an integer has been assigned, appears as an icon in the window in the order previously specified using the editable field. The methods are automatically arranged from the top of the window towards the bottom of the window in the order previously specified from lowest number to highest. The methods are executed in the specified order when the object is run, for example, in a scenario for testing and monitoring the response or performance of a computer network.
