Patent number: 11213028Abstract: Compositions and methods for controlling pests are provided. The methods involve transforming organisms with a nucleic acid sequence encoding an insecticidal protein. In particular, the nucleic acid sequences are useful for preparing plants and microorganisms that possess insecticidal activity. Thus, transformed bacteria, plants, plant cells, plant tissues and seeds are provided. Compositions are insecticidal nucleic acids and proteins of bacterial species. The sequences find use in the construction of expression vectors for subsequent transformation into organisms of interest including plants, as probes for the isolation of other homologous (or partially homologous) genes. The pesticidal proteins find use in controlling, inhibiting growth or killing Lepidopteran, Coleopteran, Dipteran, fungal, Hemipteran and nematode pest populations and for producing compositions with insecticidal activity.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2017Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Inventors: Jennifer Kara Barry, Hua Dong, James English, Jacob Gilliam, Kai M.

Patent number: 10169429Abstract: An integrated data processing system with two-tier data caching system and techniques for use thereof in a hybrid RDBMS and BDS computing environment are provided. In one aspect, the system is RDBMS-centric and uses two caches, one on the RDBMS side (1st tier) and the other on the BDS side (2nd tier). In another aspect, a DRDA wrapper on the BDS side enables the RDBMS to communicate with the BDS as if the BDS is another RDBMS. This is advantageous because the RDBMS already supports the DRDA protocol standard. In yet another aspect, the DRDA wrapper performs the data transformation needed when transferring cached objects between the RDBMS cache and BDS cache because RDBMS and BDS save data objects in different formats. This is advantageous because it offloads the computation from RDBMS to BDS therefore reducing the performance impact on RDBMS for its normal query and transaction processing.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2015Date of Patent: January 1, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Serge Bourbonnais, Zhen Hua Dong, Nan Jiang, Xiao Li, Hong Min, Gong Su, En Zhong Wang, Ke Wei Wei, Xi Long Zheng
