Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for building a programmable dataplane are described. Specifically, the programmable dataplane can work on a list of identifiers, such as those part of OpenFlow 1.5. Specifically, the programmable dataplane can be built by creating a virtual network graph at a controller node using binary identifiers such that a node is broken into an n-ary tree and the tree has 1×2 or 1×1 nodes.

Abstract: A process of detection of pandemic swine flu virus H1N1 type in a sample is provided herein. Also provided are highly specific oligonucleotides useful for rapid detection of swine flu virus in a sample, as well as swine flu virus specific isothermal gene amplification assay for early clinical diagnosis of H1N1 human patients.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for the preparation of fentanyl comprising: (a) reacting 4-piperidone hydrochloride monohydrate with aniline in presence of reducing environment to produce 4-anilinopiperidine (4-AP), (b) reacting the 4-AP as obtained from step (a) with phenethyl halide under reflux conditions in highly alkaline medium to give 4-anilino-N-phenethylpiperidine, and (c) converting the 4-anilino-N-phenethylpiperidine to fentanyl by reacting with propionyl chloride in presence of halogenated hydrocarbons, then isolating fentanyl by solvent extraction and purifying by crystallization from petroleum ether at a temperature ranging from 60-80° C.

Abstract: A rapid, sensitive and cost effective process of detection of swine flu virus H1 type in a sample is provided herein. The present invention further provides highly specific oligonucleotides useful for rapid detection of swine flu virus in a sample. Swine flu virus specific isothermal gene amplification assay disclosed in the present invention is highly specific and sensitive and is useful for early clinical diagnosis of H1N1 human patients. The oligonucleotides disclosed in the present invention provide amplification of the target gene in highly sensitive and specific manner showing no cross amplification.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an acoustic energy reflector comprising a microcellular rubber as inner liner and a fiber reinforced composite as outer casing, in a core-shell assembly, wherein the said microcellular rubber is selected from the group of natural and synthetic rubbers having glass transition temperature below 0° C. and the resin for the fiber reinforced composite is selected from a group having a glass transition temperature at least 50° C.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of n-heneicosane is disclosed. The process comprises (a) reacting 2,4-alkaneanedione with 1-bromooctadecane in absolute ethanol in the presence of 18-crown-6 as catalyst to produce 2-heneicosanone; and (b) reducing said 2-heneicosanone using hydrazine hydrate and potassium hydroxide in ethylene glycol to obtain n-heneicosane.

Abstract: A process for the complete destruction of gelled sulphur mustard (SM), comprising the steps of: (a) dissolving gelled sulphur mustard (SM) in organic solvent such as 2-chloroethanol, methanol, methyl cellosolve or mixtures of these to obtain a clear mixture, (b) incinerating the clear gelled sulphur mustard solvent mixture obtained from step (a); (c) dissolving residual gelled SM obtained from step (c) into non-toxic products; (d) chemically converting dissolved SM obtained from step (c) into non-toxic products.
