Abstract: Embodiments relate to dynamic horizontal autoscaling for a multi-tenant service. According to an aspect, a computer-implemented method includes configuring a network computing element to route a plurality of requests from two or more clients to a service in a containerized-networked system. A horizontal service-level autoscaler monitors one or more aspects of the requests to the service from the two or more clients. A new pod including a set of running containers with shared resources in the containerized-networked system is created based at least in part on the horizontal service-level autoscaler determining that at least one of the one or more aspects of the requests exceeds a threshold. A new service mapping is created to accept subsequent requests from one of the two or more clients that triggered creation of the new pod.

Abstract: Pathogens developing resistance to available drugs are of main concern in various diseases, including cryptococcosis and tuberculosis. Hence there is a need for therapeutics with novel mechanisms of action. Described herein are compositions and methods for treating infections (e.g., fungal infections) caused by microbes (e.g., fungi) comprising inteins. An intein is a moving protein element inside a host protein. Splicing off intein from the host protein is required to maturate and activate the host protein. Calcimycin (CMN) is used as an intein splicing inhibitor to block intein splicing of the Prp8 protein of fungal pathogen C. neoformans and C. gattii the causative agents of cryptococcosis, to treat patients.

Abstract: High-performance long-lifetime charge-separation photodetectors are provided. A new device design is described based on novel band structure engineering of semiconductor materials for photodetectors, such as photosensors, solar cells, and thermophotovoltaic devices. In an exemplary aspect, photodetectors described herein include a charge-separated photo-absorber region. This comprises a semiconductor with a band structure that has an indirect fundamental bandgap, with a direct bandgap (?-? transition) only slightly above the indirect fundamental bandgap (L- or X-? transitions) (e.g., approximately equal to or larger than an energy of a product of the Boltzmann constant (kB), and temperature (T), with kBT=26 millielectron-volts (meV) at room temperature). This design not only improves photogenerated-carrier lifetime (similar to indirect bandgap semiconductors), but also maintains a strong absorption coefficient (similar to direct bandgap semiconductors).
