  • Patent number: 11475043
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a computer implemented method for applying changes into tables of a target database system using a data synchronization system, the data synchronization system being configured to automatically use at least one configurable parameter for applying a requested change in the target database system. The method provides a trained machine learning model, the machine learning model being configured to adjust the at least one configurable parameter based on a workload level. The method determines a current workload level at the target database system and uses the machine learning model for adjusting the at least one configurable parameter according to the determined workload level.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 5, 2021
    Date of Patent: October 18, 2022
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Dennis Butterstein, Adnan Ahmad, Jéssica Costa da Rocha, Samy Tafasca, Vassil Radkov Dimov, Zeyuan Zhang

  • Patent number: 7264314
    Abstract: ACTH analog compounds of the present invention include compounds comprising an ACTH peptide sequence with one or more structural modifications that can have one or more of the following preferred ACTH analog biological functions: (1) reduction of corticosteroid secretion by adrenal membrane in the presence of the ACTH analog compared to unmodified ACTH, (2) reduction of corticosteroid secretion by adrenal membrane in the presence of endogenous ACTH and (3) increased MC-2R binding affinity with reduced activation of the MC-2R receptor compared to unmodified ACTH binding to the MC-2R melanocortin. The ACTH analog compounds of the present invention are therefore useful for treatment or prevention of diseases and disorders related to ACTH, ACTH receptors or corticosteroid secretion, such as premature labor and Cushing's Disease.
