Abstract: Methods and systems enabling tracking and managing apparel items are described. The apparel item (e.g. clothing item, shoes, accessories, jewelry and other type of wearables) is tagged and tracked using an inimitable identification tag that is at least partially invisible to the naked human eye, and generating a record of the apparel item in a distributed ledger using the tag data of the inimitable identification tag. The record is associated with a non-fungible token (NFT) on the ledger that allows for tracking the item throughout its life. For example, it is possible to locate and authenticate the apparel item by using the private key associated with the NFT of the token. The apparel item may be tracked starting from a manufacturing phase of the apparel and extending throughout the lifespan of the apparel item. The authenticity of the apparel item can be shown throughout the manufacturing, distribution and ownership stages.

Abstract: A method for transaction processing using a ledger interoperability service in a blockchain-based distributed ledger system may include a ledger interoperability service: receiving a pending transaction request for a transaction from a distributed banking ledger; validating the pending transaction request; enriching the validated pending transaction; sending the enriched and validated pending transaction to a posting generation service, wherein the posting generation service creates a posting for the enriched and validated pending transaction request and a posting execution service posts a message including the posting to the ledger interoperability service; encrypting and providing the encrypted message to the distributed banking ledger; receiving an encrypted response message from the distributed banking ledger; decrypting and passing the encrypted response message to the posting execution service, wherein the posting execution service provides the posting, a transaction level status, and/or a posting level

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method of determining one or more probabilities of respective classifications of a neoplasm into one or more neoplastic categories. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of determining the probability of classification of a large intestine neoplasm into one or more categories selected from adenoma, stage I, stage II, stage III or stage IV by screening for changes to the methylation levels of a panel of gene markers, including BCAT1, IKZF1, IRF4, GRASP and/or CAHM. The method of the present invention is useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to, those relating to the diagnosis and/or monitoring of colorectal neoplasms, such as colorectal adenocarcinosis.

Abstract: A wireless communication network serves data content to a wireless user device. An access wireless relay wirelessly receives a user request for the data content from the wireless user device. The access wireless relay wirelessly transfers the data content to the wireless user device when it stores the data content. When the access wireless relay does not store the data content, it transfers content requests having a Time-To-Live (TTL). Serving wireless relays receive the content requests during the TTL. The serving wireless relays transfer the data content to the access wireless relay if they store the data content. The serving wireless relays forward the content requests with the TTL when they do not store the data content. Terminating wireless relays receive the content requests after the TTL. The terminating wireless relays stop forwarding the content requests.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to nucleic acid molecules in respect of which changes to DNA methylation levels are indicative of the onset or predisposition to the onset of a neoplasm. More particularly, the present invention is directed to nucleic acid molecules in respect of which changes to DNA methylation levels are indicative of the onset and/or progression of a large intestine or breast neoplasm, such as an adenoma or adenocarcinoma. The DNA methylation status of the present invention is useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to, those relating to the diagnosis and/or monitoring of colorectal or breast neoplasms, such as colorectal or breast adenocarcinomas. Accordingly, in a related aspect the present invention is directed to a method of screening for the onset, predisposition to the onset and/or progression of a neoplasm by screening for modulation in DNA methylation of one or more nucleic acid molecules.
