Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for processing a service request in a network comprising a set of Network Function (NF) nodes, and corresponding NF nodes. The method performed at a first NF node includes transmitting (S710) a request for the service to a Service Communication Proxy (SCP), the request comprising at least an indication indicating a required Application Program Interface (API) version for the service, wherein the requires API version is other than an API version included in a Resource Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) in the request. The present disclosure further discloses a corresponding method implemented at an SCP. The present disclosure further provides a corresponding computer readable medium.

Abstract: There is provided a method for handling messages in a network. The method is performed by a first network function (NF) node in the network. Transmission of a first message is initiated (202) towards a second NF node in the network in response to an event that signals first information is to be managed by a third NF node in the network. The first message comprises the first information and an indication of whether the third N node is to be an N node that supports testing in the network. The first message comprises the indication for the third NF node to take into account when managing the first information.

Abstract: A method for automatically creating an equipment inventory from a plurality of images of a site. The method includes receiving, by a processor, the plurality of images of the site, labeling, by the processor, equipment present in each image of the plurality of images of the site, creating, by the processor, an overlap curve for neighboring images of the plurality of images of the site, determining, by the processor, a useful image of each side of the site based on the overlap curve, the useful image including a subset of the plurality of images, creating, by the processor, an overlay of equipment in the useful image of each side of the site, counting, by the processor, equipment present in the overlay of each side of the site, and generating, by the processor, the equipment inventory by adding a number of equipment counted in the overlay of each side of the site.

Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for the treatment of cancers using modified TILs, wherein the modified TILs include one or more immunomodulatory agents (e.g., cytokines) associated with their cell surface. The immunomodulatory agents associated with the TILs provide a localized immunostimulatory effect that can advantageously enhance TIL survival, proliferation and/or anti-tumor activity in a patient recipient. As such, the compositions and methods disclosed herein provide effective cancer therapies.

Abstract: A method of expanding tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) into a therapeutic population of TILs may include the steps of: (a) obtaining and/or receiving a first population of TILs from surgical resection, needle biopsy, core biopsy, small biopsy, or other means for obtaining a sample that contains a mixture of tumor and TIL cells from a cancer in the subject or patient; performing an initial expansion (or priming first expansion) of the first population of TILs in the first cell culture medium to obtain a second population of TILs, wherein the first cell culture medium comprises IL-2, optionally OKT-3 (anti-CD3 antibody), and optionally antigen presenting cells (APCs), performing a rapid second expansion of the second population of TILs in a second cell culture medium to obtain a third population of TILs; wherein the second cell culture medium comprises IL-2, OKT-3 (anti-CD3 antibody), and APCs; harvesting the third population of TILs; and genetically modifying TILs at any time prior to step (d) or after st

Abstract: Solid state electrolytes having ionic compounds derived from sulfonimides have extended delocalization of the anionic charge and high total ionic conductivity. A secondary electrochemical cell or a secondary battery has the solid electrolyte. A vehicle, an electronic device, or an electrical grid comprising has at least one of the secondary electrochemical cell or the secondary battery.

Abstract: A method of detecting wear of a downhole tool implemented in a subject wellbore includes receiving offset wellbore data for one or more offset wellbores and, based on the offset wellbore data, determining an expected downhole tool index for the downhole tool at one or more measurement depths including an active measurement depth of the subject wellbore. The method further includes receiving subject wellbore data and, based on the subject wellbore data, determining a subject downhole tool index in real time for the downhole tool at the active measurement depth. The method further includes determining the wear of the downhole tool based on comparing the subject downhole tool index to the expected downhole tool index at the active measurement depth in real time.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a ready to drink beverage composition comprising fermented hemp or fermented hemp extract. A further aspect of the invention is a method of preparing a ready to drink beverage composition.

Abstract: A method for obtaining ionic compounds of formula I involves two-steps carried out in a one-pot manner and includes reaction of a N-(sulfinyl)sulfonamide of formula R1SO2N?S?O with a sulphonamide salt of formula R2SO2N(M)m, followed by oxidation of the resulting compound. The method has several advantages compared to previous methods to access sulfonimides, including a short sequence of steps, short reaction time, avoidance of environmentally-unfriendly reagents (including CF3SiMe3), improved atom-economy, milder conditions, as well as the ability to synthesize a broad range of salts.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a beverage composition comprising fermented verbena or fermented verbena extract. A further aspect of the invention is a method of preparing a beverage composition.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method of building an optimized color flow cytometry panel is disclosed using a full spectrum flow cytometer with five excitation lasers and five corresponding detection modules. In another embodiment, a graphical user interface is disclosed generated by a server computer from a fluorochrome database and displayed by a client computer to assist in the selection of a set of fluorochromes for use in an assay to analyze biological samples. The GUI can display spectra graphs to visually show how fluorochromes may overlap and can generate similarity indexes for the paired fluorochrome interference and a complexity index for overall many to many interferences generated by a selected group or set of fluorochromes.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in a content system supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data across platforms, which data can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods determine breaking or trending news stories from social media activity, which are then communicated to users via personalized delivery. Thus, the disclosed systems and methods leverage social data, expert knowledge and/or user feedback, which are all available on-line, to determine breaking news stories, which are then delivered to users in a personalized manner specific to each user.
