Abstract: A system and method for managing virtual queues for providing access control. A cloud-based queue service manages a plurality of queues hosted by one or more entities. The queue service is in constant communication with the entities and sensors located therein providing queue management, queue analysis, and access control to controlled systems. The queue service is likewise in direct communication with queued persons and provides an access key to a user device which can be used to access the controlled system when certain conditions are met.

Abstract: A system and method for managing virtual queues. A cloud-based queue service manages a plurality of queues hosted by one or more entities. The queue service is in constant communication with the entities providing queue management, queue analysis, and queue recommendations. The queue service is likewise in direct communication with queued persons. Sending periodic updates while also motivating and incentivizing punctuality and minimizing wait times based on predictive analysis. The predictive analysis uses “Big Data” and other available data resources, for which the predictions assist in the balancing of persons across multiple queues for the same event or multiple persons across a sequence of queues for sequential events.

Abstract: The invention provides antagonistic and agonistic anti-human VISTA antibodies and antibody fragments. These antagonist antibodies and antibody fragments may be used to inhibit or block VISTA's suppressive effects on T cell immunity and thereby promote T cell immunity. These agonist antibodies and antibody fragments may be used to potentiate or enhance or mimic VISTA's suppressive effects on T cell immunity and thereby suppress T cell immunity. These antagonist antibodies and antibody fragments are especially useful in the treatment of cancer and infectious conditions. These agonist antibodies and antibody fragments are especially useful in the treatment of autoimmunity, allergy, inflammatory conditions, GVHD, sepsis and transplant recipients. Screening assays for identifying these agonists are also provided.

Abstract: Aniline compounds are provided which bind to CCR(4) and are useful for the treatment of diseases such as allergic diseases, autoimmune diseases, graft rejection and cancer.

Abstract: A system and method for managing virtual queues with user-level targeted interactions. A cloud-based queue service manages a plurality of queues hosted by one or more entities. The queue service is in constant communication with the entities providing queue management, queue analysis, and queue recommendations. The queue service is likewise in direct communication with queued persons. Sending periodic updates such as targeted interactions in the form of products, services, and callback opportunities based on analysis of entity data, user-specific data, and data associated with all persons or groups at a given location, both physical or virtual.
