Abstract: Example methods and systems for connection establishment in a global server load balancer (GSLB) environment are described. In one example, a computer system may establish a first connection with a first entity and a second connection with the second entity. The first connection may be established based on first parameter information that includes a shared certificate and a first identifier (ID). The second connection may be established based on second parameter information that includes the shared certificate and a second ID. The shared certificate may be shared by multiple entities that include the first entity and a second entity. In response to receiving a first request, a first response may be generated and sent towards the first entity via the first connection. In response to receiving a second request, a second response may be generated and sent towards the second entity via the second connection.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for dynamic site selection in a global server load balancer (GSLB) environment are described. In one example, a computer system may obtain first health information from a first entity and second health information from a second entity. The first health information may be generated based on multiple first traffic flows between (a) multiple first client devices and (b) a first pool of backend servers. The second health information may be generated based on multiple second traffic flows between (a) multiple second client devices and (b) a second pool of backend servers. In response to receiving a request to access the service, the computer may select a selected site based on the first health information and/or second health information. A response may be generated and sent to cause a third client device to access the service by directing a third traffic flow towards the selected site.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a 13X zeolite, a 13X zeolite adsorbent and a synthesis method thereof. Wherein, the synthesis method includes preparing a seed material by mixing sodium aluminate, sodium silicate, NaOH into water to get a seed mixture, stirring the seed mixture and aging. Then preparing the 13X zeolite by mixing sodium aluminate, sodium silicate, NaOH into water, followed by 0-5 wt. % addition of the seed material to obtain a gel mixture. Stirring the said gel mixture for 1 hour and crystallization of the gel mixture, then a filtration step and a washing step is performed to obtain a 13X zeolite cake. Further, the 13X zeolite cake is dried at 120° C. for 24 hours, then crushed and grinded to obtain a 13X zeolite powder. The 13X zeolite adsorbent is prepared by binding the 13X zeolite powder with a binder.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system and method for managing workflow including the ability to manage workflow strategy and activity, and provide suggestions to optimize workflow strategy and activity.

Abstract: Operations include determining a sales conversion window based on product characteristics and/or user characteristics. Product characteristics may include a type of product, a price of the product, a style of the product, and a lifetime of the product. User characteristics may include conversion windows for prior purchases by a user, browsing history, and demographic information. The system may determine the sales conversion window based on events indicative of user interest. The events may include viewing a product, liking a product, sharing a product, adding a product to a cart for purchase, and purchasing a product. One or more events may be used to generate a model for the sales conversion window. Some embodiments execute one or more actions for generating sales during the computed sales conversion window.

Abstract: The invention features a method of producing a high mannose glucocerebrosidase (hmGCB) which includes: providing a cell which is capable of expressing glucocerebrosidase (GCB), and allowing production of GCB having a precursor oligosaccharide under conditions which prevent the removal of at least one mannose residue distal to the pentasaccharide core of the precursor oligosaccharide of GCB, to thereby produce an hmGCB preparation. Preferably, the condition which prevents the removal of at least one mannose residue distal to the pentasaccharide core is inhibition of a class 1 processing mannosidase and/or a class 2 processing mannosidase. The invention also features an hmGCB preparation and methods of using an hmGCB preparation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a mutant of L-asparaginase enzyme characterized in having high thermostability, pH stability and no glutaminase activity useful for therapeutics and the process of preparing the same. The present invention specifically relates to mutants MTCC 5580, MTCC 5581 and MTCC 5582 characterized in having higher stability, no glutaminase activity etc., to allow their usage in the form of improved protein therapeutics.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining and providing call disposition information for outgoing calls are provided. More particularly, the disposition of a call placed from a communication device is determined, and associated with a call log for that communication device. The call disposition information is displayed or otherwise output to a user when the call log is accessed by the user. The call disposition information can be determined by a call disposition application running on a communication server that provides the call disposition information to a communication device for display by that communication device.

Abstract: The instant application discloses, among other things, techniques to allow simplified Gesture Interface, which may provide a consistent, easy-to-remember interface for performing various actions with a portable device, including, but not limited to, sharing files, data, and information, winking, waving, pointing, picking up, and dropping.

Abstract: The instant application discloses, among other things, techniques to allow simplified user interface element-based development, allowing users unskilled in conventional programming languages to produce applications by setting attributes, layout, and behaviors for user interface element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel mutant of L-asparaginase enzyme characterized in having high thermostability, pH stability and no glutaminase activity useful for therapeutics and the process of preparing the same. The present invention specifically relates to mutant's MTCC 5580, MTCC 5581 and MTCC 5582 characterized in having higher stability, no glutaminase activity etc., to allow their usage in the form of improved protein therapeutics. A thermostable L-asparaginase from P. furiosus was cloned and expressed in E. coli host. The enzyme was engineered at its active site to create three different mutants based on structural and sequence analysis with a E. coli—derived enzyme homologue. The mutants MTCC 5580, MTCC 5581 and MTCC 5582 were tested for their stability, substrate affinity, optimum pH and temperature of activity and cytotoxicity. Based on the studies, all the three enzymes were found thermostable and with no glutaminase activity as compared to other available enzyme EcA II.

Abstract: A system and method are disclosed relating to authenticating software licenses associated with a software product. During an installation process, a purchaser of a software product may contact a vendor representative via a telephone connection and verbally relay a data packet, which may be an installation ID. The vendor server creates a reversible hash from the data packet, a known seed value and additional information relating to the software product or license. The server encrypts the hash to generate a confirmation ID, and sends the confirmation ID to the software product purchaser.
