  • Publication number: 20230340147
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an antibody or an antigen binding fragment thereof that specifically binds to ?-1,6-core-fucosylated prostate specific antigen (PSA) and partial sequences thereof comprising the ?-1,6-core-fucose residue. The antibodies and antigen binding fragments significantly discriminate between core-fucosylated PSA or core-fucosylated PSA partial sequences and other glycosylated PSA species and partial sequences thereof lacking the core-fucose residue, including aglycosylated PSA, as well as core-fucosylated glycan in other contexts. The present invention further relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding the light chain variable region or the heavy chain variable region of the antibody of the invention, as well as vectors comprising said nucleic acid molecules.

  • Publication number: 20230174405
    Abstract: A method of increasing operational efficiency of a power plant includes determining an average rate of accumulation of scale-forming compounds in a cooling water source, directing water from the cooling water source having a first concentration of scale forming compounds through a treatment system to produce a treated water having a lower concentration of scale-forming components than the first concentration by operating the treatment system with operating parameters selected such that a rate of removal of the scale-forming components from the water in the treatment system is greater than the average rate of accumulation of the scale-forming components, directing the treated water back into the cooling water source, and circulating water including the treated water from the cooling water source through a cooling system of the power plant.

  • Patent number: 10423718
    Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for interleaving XForms with JSF request processing can be provided. The system can include an XForms definition generated for a form configured for rendering in a Web application. Specifically, the XForms definition can specify a data model for data to be processed within the form. The system further can include a JSF code generation module programmed to process the forms model to produce a form bean, a faces configuration, and a JSF page for each navigable view defined in the XForms definition.

  • Patent number: 8176081
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to deploying XForms in an enterprise environment and provide a method, system and computer program product for forms integration of an external data model not implemented through a DOM accessible API. In one embodiment of the invention, a method for forms integration of an external data model not implemented through a DOM accessible API can include generating a data graph for an external data model for a forms based application and transforming the data graph into a DOM representation of the data graph. Value changes for fields of a form in the forms based application can be applied to nodes of the DOM representation and mutations in the nodes of the DOM representation can be synchronized to corresponding nodes in the data graph.

  • Patent number: 8140976
    Abstract: Content aggregation is used to build administration consoles. Preferred embodiments enable providing a solution-based approach to information technology (“IT”) administration, whereby content can be flexibly arranged to provide a content view that is adapted for the IT solution deployed in a particular IT environment. In preferred embodiments, portal technology is used for the aggregation framework, and portlets are used for creating content. Alternatively, other approaches such as struts and tiles may be used. Preferred embodiments deploy an administration console as a Web-accessible application, and this console consolidates the administration interfaces for an arbitrary set of management operations, including administration of an arbitrary collection of hardware and/or software resources. Roles/permissions may be used when rendering content for the console, thereby customizing a view to individual end users (or user groups).

  • Patent number: 7552127
    Abstract: The system and method of the present invention provides a solution to allow users to receive platform-independent content services on content from content applications, such as blogs, wikis and eForms. It utilizes the Atom, XLink and XML Query (XQuery) formats and protocols with a content management system (CMS) which supports these formats and protocols. In the preferred embodiment, XML eForms, such as Workplace Forms, Adobe Forms, and Microsoft InfoPath is used as an example to describe the architecture, the system and method of the present invention although the invention can be applied to the various content applications mentioned above. In another embodiment of the present invention, unstructured content is converted to structured content via UIMA so that the content services may be offered to the user on the content. It transforms the content to a form more desirable to the user prior to delivering the delivering the content. The content is delivered in an XML document and is summarized for the user.
