    Abstract: A search apparatus and search method of prediction mode having direction are provided. The apparatus and method can be applied to intra-prediction of video processing. An initial prediction mode is quickly selected based on a distribution of directional energy values. A plurality of first-stage prediction modes are obtained by spreading out from the initial prediction mode. A fine adjustment is processed according to the prediction mode of a neighboring block. The coding costs of the first-stage prediction modes are calculated and then the prediction mode with the lowest coding cost is selected. Therefore, a total calculation amount is reduced.

  • Patent number: 8605679
    Abstract: A method for avoiding resource being released mistakenly during tracking area update or handover process comprising: determining, by a target Mobility Management Entity MME, whether to use an old System Architecture Evolution Serving GW or to reselect a new Serving GW; if the target MME determines to select a new serving GW, notifying the original MME, the original MME sending a request for deleting bearer to the old Serving GW. The technical scheme of the present invention can avoid that the original MME will still send a request for deleting subscriber context to the old Serving GW when the target MME still uses the old Serving GW rather than selects a new one during tracking area update or handover process of the subscriber, which results in the appearance of a problem that the resource related to the subscriber in the old Serving GW is released mistakenly.

    Abstract: Novel dual-targeted, bifunctional anti-influenza drugs formed by conjugation with anti-inflammatory agents are disclosed. Exemplary drugs according to the invention include caffeic acid (CA)-bearing zanamivir (ZA) conjugates ZA-7-CA (1), ZA-7-CA-amide (7) and ZA-7-Nap (43) for simultaneous inhibition of influenza virus neuraminidase and suppression of proinflammatory cytokines. Synthetic methods for preparation of these enhanced anti-influenza conjugate drugs are provided. The synthetic bifunctional ZA conjugates act synergistically towards protection of mice lethally infected by H1N1 or H5N1 influenza viruses.
