Abstract: A system and method including acquiring infrastructure data associated with a DPS including a first group of servers being monitored by a first group of sensors that generate a first set of sensor data and a second group of servers being monitored by a second group of sensors that generate a second set of sensor data. The method includes identifying, based on the infrastructure data, a plurality of DPS locations of the first group of servers and the second group of servers. The method includes generating a server location map of the first group of servers and the second group of servers in the DPS. The method includes determining a relocation of a first server of the first group of servers to cause the first server to join the second group of servers. The method includes preconfiguring the first server based on the second set of sensor data.

Abstract: A system and method of managing configurations of rearranged servers in a data processing system (DPS). The method includes acquiring infrastructure data associated with a DPS including a first group of servers being monitored by a first group of sensors that generate a first set of sensor data and a second group of servers being monitored by a second group of sensors that generate a second set of sensor data. The method includes querying the DPS to acquire a plurality of network addresses associated with the first group of servers and the second group of servers. The method includes identifying a plurality of DPS locations of the first group of servers and the second group of servers. The method includes generating, based on the plurality of DPS locations, a server location map of the first group of servers and the second group of servers in the DPS.

Abstract: In one form, a bolus is configured to fit over a target body position and includes an internal relatively rigid endoskeleton structure and a surrounding relatively non-rigid skin interfacing layer. A positioning and locking system may include an indexing plate mountable to a fixture. The indexing plate includes a plurality of multiposition-enabling formations and corresponding reference locations and is configured to engage with at least one locking mechanism. The at least one locking mechanism is movable between and lockable relative to the multiposition-enabling formations. The locking mechanism is also configured to interface between the indexing plate and accessories/devices that require immobilisation, accurate and/or repeatable positioning, e.g. the bolus.

Abstract: The invention features polypeptides that include variants of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) having a reduced ability to bind with vitronectin, having a reduced ability to interact with the PAI-1 clearance receptor LDL receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1), and having the ability to efficiently inhibit neutrophil elastase in the presence of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETS). In some embodiments, a polypeptide of the invention includes PAI-1 variants optionally fused to an Fc domain monomer or moiety. The invention also features pharmaceutical compositions and methods of using the polypeptides to treat diseases and conditions characterized with aberrant neutrophil elastase activity (e.g., Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis).

Abstract: A method of reducing an effect of stroke in a subject, the method comprising administering to the subject a compound that inhibits VEGF-B signaling.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for modulating blood-neural barrier (BNB) for the treatment of CNS conditions such as edema, and for increased drug delivery efficacy across the BNB. The present invention further relates to improved tPA treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular and related diseases in combination with antagonism of the PDGF signaling pathway. The inventive method and composition is particularly suitable for conjunctive therapy of ischemic stroke using tPA and an anti-PDGF-C antagonist or an anti-PDGFR-? antagonist.
