Abstract: The present invention relates to a preparation method of implant comprising drug delivery layer and implant composition for living donor transplantation comprising the same, and more specifically, a preparation method of implant comprising drug delivery layer comprising preparing chitosan-bioactive glass composite solution; preparing drug-containing complex coating composition by adding drug in the chitosan-bioactive glass composite solution; and preparing drug delivery layer by electrophoresis of the complex coating composition on the surface of implant, and implant composition for living donor transplantation comprising the same. The implant composition according to the present invention is able to deliver the drug, and therefore to prevent inflammation, which may occur after the surgery, as well as to promote recovery depending on the type of drugs contained.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for determining a minimum bounding polygon for use in a geo-coding system. A first polygon is received defining a geographic region. A minimal number of points is determined corresponding to the first polygon to define a second polygon at least bounding the first polygon.

Abstract: A method is disclosed of providing geo-relevant information based on a mobile device. A data item is received from the mobile device, the data item characterized by a geographic relevance and comprising at least one component. The data item is geo-coded, wherein the geo-coding includes identifying the at least one component; associating the identified at least one component with a geographic region; determining at least one group of at least two points corresponding to the geographic region, the at least one group of at least two points defining a plane enclosing the geographic region; and augmenting the data item with data representative of the determined at least one group of at least two points defining a plane. Relevant information is determined based on the augmented data item. The relevant information is provided to a user of the mobile device.

Abstract: A method is disclosed of populating a geo-coded database. A polygon is received for defining a first geographic region. At least one group of at least two points is determined corresponding to the geographic region, the at least one group of at least two points defining a plane enclosing the geographic region. A first data record representative of the first geographic region is generated, the data record including an identifier of the geographic region and the determined at least one group of at least two points corresponding thereto. The first data record is stored in the geo-coded database.

Abstract: A method is disclosed of providing geo-relevant information based on a location. A data item is received, the data item originating from a geographic location and comprising at least one component characterized by the geographic location. The data item is geo-coded, wherein the geo-coding includes identifying the at least one component; associating the identified at least one component with a geographic region; determining at least one group of at least two points corresponding to the geographic region, the at least one group of at least two points defining a plane enclosing the geographic region; and augmenting the data item with data representative of the determined at least one group of at least two points defining a plane. Relevant information is determined based on the augmented data item. The relevant is provided information to a user.
