  • Patent number: 8861535
    Abstract: Prioritization of data traffic is a common technique for providing enhanced quality of service (QoS), allowing some traffic to reach its destination on an expedited basis without being obstructed or delayed by other lower-priority traffic. A mechanism is disclosed using the bearer architecture of the evolved packet core (EPC) to provide prioritization of traffic from specific packet data networks (PDNs), as well as over specific bearers. The priority information is requested by the mobile management entity (MME), which is commonly overloaded with traffic to and from multiple users and PDNs. In addition, a mechanism is provided for reducing the frequency of unwanted paging notifications for MMEs that are overloaded.

  • Publication number: 20140187536
    Abstract: Methods for reducing toxicity or side effects caused by administration of a rycal compound for repairing ryanodine receptor channel leaks when treating a disorder in a subject caused by such leaks. These methods are based upon the selection for administration of those rycal compounds having properties including an EC50 value of 102 nM when assayed for its ability to facilitate the rebinding of FKBP12.6 to PKA-phosphorylated RyR2 or less and less than 50% inhibition of the hERG K+ channel (IKr) when administered at 10 ?M to reduce compound toxicity or side effects after administration compared to other rycal compounds not having those properties.
