Abstract: Disclosed is a compound of the formula (I), (IIA) or (IIB) for use to treat hyperpigmentation of human skin by inhibiting the activity of human tyrosinase in an animate substrate which is human skin containing human tyrosinase. (I) (IIA) (IIB) where: X is oxygen, sulphur, selenium or tellurium; R is —OH, alkyl, aryl or peptide group: R1 is —OH, alkyl, aryl or peptide group; R2 is —OH, alkyl, aryl or peptide group; n is an integer from 2 to 5; m is an integer from 2 to 4 and p is an integer from 2 to 4.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer programs are presented for managing network traffic. A network switch includes a switch fabric and a resource coherency and analytics engine (RCAE) coupled to the switch fabric. The RCAE includes one or more virtualizable resource groups (VRGs) for managing network traffic flow across a plurality of network switches on the network. Further, the RCAE is operable to add network entities to each VRG, add flows to each VRG, and add other VRGs to each VRG. A virtualizable resource control list (VRCL), associated with each VRG, identifies which network entities in the VRG can communicate with each other, which network entities in the VRG can communicate with network entities in other VRGs, and a guaranteed bandwidth for the VRG associated with the VRCL. Furthermore, the RCAE is operable to exchange messages with other RCAEs in other network switches to implement traffic policies defined by each VRCL.

Abstract: A system that includes a switch fabric and a resource coherency and analytics engine (RCAE). The RCAE includes a virtual traffic shaper (VTS). The VTS includes virtual output queues (VOQs), where each VOQ is associated with a virtualizable resource group (VRG)-OP pair. The VTS includes functionality to receive a first packet, make a first determination that the first packet is to be sent to a first OP, make a second determination that the first packet is associated with a first VRG, and store, based on the first and second determinations, the first packet in a VOQ associated with a first VRG-OP pair. The VTS also includes functionality to schedule the first packet for transmission from the VOQ to the switch fabric.
