  • Patent number: 11897941
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for inhibiting bacterial aggregation, and in particular, to compositions and methods that inhibit autotransporter-mediated bacterial aggregation or attachment. Described herein are autotransporter binding molecules such as antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof. The autotransporter binding molecules block self-association between autotransporters and autotransporter-mediated surface attachment.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 22, 2021
    Date of Patent: February 13, 2024
    Assignees: La Trobe University, The University of Queensland
    Inventors: Begona Heras, Jason Paxman, Mark Schembri, Alvin Lo

  • Patent number: 7908125
    Abstract: The present invention provides an architecture for obtaining an analytical view of data. The invention includes a model service component for receiving an indication of a first object model and generating a dimensional model and a second object model from the first object model. The second object model is analytical in that it preserves relationships identified in the dimensional model, but allows the user to obtain information in terms of objects instead of specifying the data in terms of the dimensional model. The architecture also includes a navigational component that allows a user to navigate from the second object model to underlying data represented by the first object model.

  • Patent number: 7313561
    Abstract: A tagged format data schema is disclosed. The schema enables an object-relational model to be specified and decorated with metadata so that a dimensional model can be inferred therefrom. In accordance with one embodiment, based on information specified in the schema, a processing engine is able to autonomously generate a dimensional model.

  • Patent number: 7275024
    Abstract: The present invention automatically generates a dimensional model from an object model. The relationships in the object model are used to infer foreign key relationships in the dimensional model.
