  • Patent number: 11940940
    Abstract: A processing device has a plurality of interfaces and a plurality of processors. During different phases of execution of a computer program, different processors are associated with different interfaces, such that the connectivity between processors and interfaces for the sending of egress data and the receiving of ingress data may change during execution of that computer program. The change in this connectivity is directed by the compiled code running on the processors. The compiled code selects which buses associated with which interfaces, given processors are to connect to for receipt of ingress data. Furthermore, the compiled code causes control messages to be sent to circuitry associated with the interfaces, so as to control which buses associated with which processors, given interfaces are to connect to.

  • Publication number: 20070026503
    Abstract: The present invention relates to HLA-A*02-restricted cellular epitopes within the VP1 polypeptide of a human polyomavirus, BK virus, which is associated with polyomavirus-associated nephropathy in kidney transplant patients. Preferred peptides correspond to amino acids residues 107-116, 108-116 and 44-52 of BKV VP1, and are processed in vivo in natural infection with BKV. Effector T cell populations stimulated by the peptides represent functional CTLs as assessed by cytotoxicity and cytokine production, and are reactive against cells presenting both the BKV peptides above and the JC virus homolog sequences.

  • Patent number: 6271465
    Abstract: An EMI/RFI shield includes a shell made from a metalized polymeric material with a shape that is predetermined to form within at least one shielded cavity. The shell has sidewalls that terminate in a flange extending at an angle to the sidewalls. The flange has a lower surface for electrically coupling the shell to a predetermined electrical potential and an upper surface for engaging a structure, preferably a protruding rib from a cover, that exerts a compressive force on the top surface for urging the lower surface into an electrical coupling arrangement with an underlying planar conductor carrying the predetermined electrical potential (e.g., ground). The lower surface can include or be placed upon a layer of electrically conductive compliant material, such as a conductive adhesive. At least one of the sidewalls can include a projecting fluted structure having a size and location that is predetermined to engage a side of the structure that exerts the compressive force.
