Abstract: A method of at least partially filling an opening in a workpiece made of metal, the opening being at least partially defined by one or more opening walls having one or more opening wall surfaces. The method includes providing an insert bondable with the workpiece, the insert having one or more insert engagement surfaces formed for engagement with the opening wall surface. The opening wall surface and the insert engagement surface are heated to a hot working temperature. The insert is subjected to an engagement motion, to move the insert engagement surface relative to the opening wall surface. While the insert is subjected to the engagement motion, the insert is also subjected to a translocation motion to move the insert at least partially into the opening, for engaging the insert engagement surface with the opening wall surface, for at least partially creating a metallic bond between the insert and the workpiece.

Abstract: Methods and compositions comprising recombinant Arginase I proteins which are capable of depleting the plasma arginine levels in a subject are disclosed. The methods and compositions can be used to modulate the activity of the immune system in a subject. Modulation of the immune system is useful in the treatment of immune disorders and in preventing rejection of a transplanted organ, tissue, or cell. The methods and compositions can also be used to treat a bone condition of a subject.

Abstract: One communication system includes a first die, a second die and a front-end circuit. The first die has an up-converter and a digital baseband (DBB) processing circuit. The second die has a down-converter. The front-end circuit couples an antenna to the first and second dies. Another exemplary communication system includes a first die, a second die and a front-end circuit. The first die performs digital baseband (DBB) processing, and generates a first signal with a higher frequency according to a second signal, wherein the second signal is derived from an output signal of the DBB processing. The second die generates a third signal with a lower frequency according to a fourth signal. The front-end circuit couples the first signal from the first die to an antenna and couples the fourth signal from the antenna to the second die.
