Abstract: A method of configuring a network device for key sharing and a method for a first network device to determine a shared key are provided. The method of configuring uses a private modulus (p1) a public modulus (N), and a bivariate polynomial (f1) having integer coefficients, the binary representation of the public modulus and the binary representation of the private modulus are the same in at least key length (b) consecutive bits. Local key material for a network device is generated by substituting an identity number into the bivariate polynomial and reducing modulo the private modulus the result of the substitution to obtain a univariate polynomial. Security may be increased by adding (440) one or more obfuscating numbers to coefficients of the univariate polynomial to obtain an obfuscated univariate polynomial.

Abstract: A method of configuring a network device for key sharing, the method comprising obtaining (410) in electronic form at least two parameter sets, a parameter set comprising a private modulus (p1) a public modulus (N), and a bivariate polynomial (f1) having integer coefficients, the binary representation of the public modulus and the binary representation of the private modulus are the same in at least key length (b) consecutive bits, generating local key material for the network device comprising obtaining (420) in electronic form an identity number (A) for the network device, and for each parameter set of the at least two parameter sets obtaining a corresponding univariate polynomial, by determining, using a polynomial manipulation device, a univariate polynomial from the bivariate polynomial of the parameter set by substituting (430) the identity number into said bivariate polynomial, and reducing the result of the substitution modulo the private modulus of the parameter set, and electronically storing (450)

Abstract: The invention relates to a liquefied petroleum gas direct injection engine (100) comprising at least one cylinder comprising a combustion chamber (1) having a spark plug (2), one or more intake valve or valves (4) and one or more exhaust valve or valves (5). The LPG engine (100) further comprises at least one injector (6) for injecting liquefied petroleum gas in liquid state directly into the combustion chamber, the LPG being injected at a pre-established pressure value; a high pressure pump (9) for feeding pressurized liquefied petroleum gas to at least one injector (6); and an electronic control unit (13) configured to operate the at least one injector (6) for injecting the LPG during a specific injection time period or periods such that a predefined target mass of liquefied petroleum gas is injected, and between 360° BTDC and 60° BTDC of the engine cycle. The invention also refers to a control method of a liquefied petroleum gas direct injection engine (100).

Abstract: A method of treating a muscular dystrophy disease in a patient includes administering an effective amount of a botanical drug isolated from Andrographis paniculata in combination with cell therapy. The method improves skeletal muscle performance.

Abstract: A connector assembly (1) has a lower row of side-by-side terminal arrays (28) having a common dielectric carrier (30), and an upper row of side-by side terminal arrays (34) having a common dielectric carrier (3), each of the carriers (30) has guide sections (40) at opposite lateral ends, the carriers (30) are installed one behind the other, with the guide sections (40) being guided along common guides (19) of the housing (4), and the housing (4) has a resilient latch arm (20) that extends between the side-by-side terminal arrays (28 and 34), and holds the carriers (30) one behind the other.
