Patent number: 10979363Abstract: Techniques for resegmenting a partition in a distributed stream-processing platform are provided. The techniques include receiving a trigger to move a partition of the distributed stream-processing platform from a first broker on a first set of physical resources to a second broker on a second a set of physical resources. In response to the trigger, the partition is allocated on the second broker, and the first broker is configured to redirect, to the second broker, requests for new messages after a last offset in the partition without replicating older messages before the last offset to the second broker. Idempotent produce metadata for the partition from the first broker is then merged into the second broker. Finally, metadata for processing requests for the partition is updated to include the second broker.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2020Date of Patent: April 13, 2021Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Andrey Efimov, John Christopher Petry, Julien Nicolas Dollon, Nathaniel Martin Glass

Publication number: 20200353090Abstract: The invention relates to new prodrugs of active molecules. These prodrugs allow, in particular, the subcutaneous or intramuscular administration of active molecules of which the subcutaneous or intramuscular administration is problematic or impossible, in particular because of the toxicity at the injection site. The prodrugs according to the invention comprise an active ingredient, covalently linked with a polymer chain, preferably a hydrophilic and/or thermosensitive polymer chain. The invention relates, in particular, to polymeric prodrugs comprising a polymer chain formed at least in part by acrylamide monomer or one of its derivatives, the polymer comprising a proximal part and a terminal part; a first pharmaceutically active molecule covalently coupled to the proximal part of the polymer; possibly a second pharmaceutically active molecule covalently coupled to the terminal part of the polymer.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2018Publication date: November 12, 2020Inventors: Nicolas TSAPIS, Julien NICOLAS, Tanguy BOISSENOT, Alexandre BORDAT

Patent number: 7664198Abstract: A system and method for broadcasting content data to a plurality of mobile devices. The content data is arranged into data blocks, and each data block is broadcast using an initial set of rateless transmission symbols. Mobile devices that did not receive a sufficient number of initial symbols respond with a no acknowledgment (“NACK”) message, and a NACK rate for the broadcast system is monitored. Responsive to the NACK rate, additional symbols may be broadcast or otherwise transmitted to mobile devices, and, the NACK rate is used to determine when to terminate transmission of additional symbols for a particular data block. An initial set of symbols for the next data block may be transmitted concurrently with the additional symbols for one or more previous data blocks. The NACK rate may also be used as feedback to the broadcast system to adjust the transmission scheme.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2006Date of Patent: February 16, 2010Assignee: Kyocera CorporationInventors: Amit Kalhan, Julien Nicolas
