Abstract: A system, method and architecture for network-assisted scanning of a surrounding environment. In one example arrangement, the system is operative for receiving one or more pieces of environmental data from a plurality of collection agents, each collection agent operating with a plurality of sensors configured to sense data relating to a respective location area of an environment, wherein the one or more environmental data is received responsive to determining that a portion of the environmental data is necessary for updating a consumption point report. Based on the received data, an updated consumption point report may be generated, which may be transmitted to a data consumption point.

Abstract: A system, method and architecture for providing driving recommendations to a vehicle based on network-assisted scanning of a surrounding environment. In one embodiment, the system is operative for receiving environmental data from one or more collection agents, each operating with a plurality of sensors configured to sense data relating to the environment. At least one collection agent is operative in association with the vehicle for providing vehicular condition data and vehicular navigation data. Road condition information and obstacle condition information relating to a road segment, the vehicle is traversing may be obtained. Responsive to the road condition/navigation data, vehicle type and positioning, etc., a routing path over the road segment may be determined. In one configuration, the routing path may be presented via a display (e.g., AR/MR) associated with the vehicle.

Abstract: A system, method and architecture for network-assisted scanning of a surrounding environment. In one example arrangement, the system is operative for receiving real world object identification and spatial mapping data relative to a plurality of real world scenarios sensed by sensing points, each operating as a collection agent configured to collect environmental data in association with a plurality of sensors. The data may be prioritized responsive to at least one of a determination of RAN resource capacity available to the collection agent, e.g., compute resources, storage resources, radio transmission resources, cost of the transmission capacity available to the collection agent, etc. in view of urgency/relevance of the data. Responsive to prioritizing the environmental data, one or more pieces of the environmental data may be transmitted to a nearest edge compute location and/or a cloud-based datacenter network node.

Abstract: A system, method and architecture for providing highly granular driving recommendations to a vehicle based on network-assisted scanning of a surrounding environment. In one embodiment, the system is operative for receiving environmental data from one or more collection agents, each operating with a plurality of sensors configured to sense data relating to the environment. At least one collection agent is operative in association with the vehicle for providing vehicular condition data and vehicular navigation data.

Abstract: A software platform for analyzing gene expression, gene annotation, and sample information in a relational format comprises a gene expression module (200) with a data warehouse (210) for storing quantitative gene expression measurements for tissues and cell lines screened using various assays, information on bio-samples (404) and donors, experimental information, and a gene index comprising curated information from external information sources. A connection module (300) permits loading of more than one source of gene expression, gene annotation into the data warehouse (210) so that it may be searched in combination with pre-existing data in the warehouse. A user interface provides for loading user-derived data, initiating searches and for visualizing search results.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a system and method of analyzing gene expression, gene annotation, and sample information in a relational format supporting efficient exploration and analysis, comprising: providing a data warehouse which comprises a gene expression database for storing quantitative gene expression measurements for tissues and cell lines screened using various assays; a clinical database for storing information on bio-samples and donors; and a fragment index for biological properties for DNA fragments; receiving a query regarding gene expression of one or more DNA fragments; determining the level of gene expression of the one or more DNA fragments; correlating the level of gene expression with the clinical database and the fragment index; and displaying the results of said correlation.

Abstract: Acidic amino acid extensions to multimeric proteins, particularly nucleic acid (e.g., DNA or RNA) binding proteins, provide novel acidically modified proteins which can inhibit the function of cellular proteins, thereby regulating and controlling cell growth. The acidically modified nucleic acid binding proteins are engineered to contain a plurality of acidic amino acids appended to the proteins, generally as extensions of the multimerization or dimerization domain at the amino terminus, and can replace the basic region DNA binding domain of a DNA binding protein. The acidically extended nucleic acid binding proteins act as potent dominant negatives which were demonstrated to inhibit the activation of endogenous transactivators, such as AP1. The invention provides novel methods to create such acidically modified DNA binding proteins which can specifically and stably heterodimerize with cellular regulatory proteins and control cell growth.
