Abstract: Disclosed are compounds of Formula (I): or a salt thereof, wherein: X is CR6 or N; Y is CR3 or N; R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, and m are defined herein. Also disclosed are methods of using such compounds to inhibit the activity of one or both of diacylglycerol kinase alpha (DGK?) and diacylglycerol kinase zeta (DGK?), and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds. These compounds are useful in the treatment of viral infections and proliferative disorders, such as cancer.

Abstract: Technology is described for determining a candidate's suitability for a work profile. The method can include identifying a candidate's abilities by obtaining the candidate's electronic response to a plurality of problems presented in a work simulation. Another operation may be capturing a candidate EEG (Electroencephalogram) during an electronic response provided by the candidate. A normal neuro-mappings for the plurality of problems may be obtained based in part on aggregated EEG data for a group of individuals for the plurality of problems solved in the work simulation. The candidate EEGs for the plurality of problems can be compared to the normal neuro-mappings for the plurality of problems. Candidates may be scored based in part on the amount candidate EEGs diverge from the normal neuro-mappings.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing and/or processing a blockchain to maintain data security for confidential and/or personal data are provided. According to certain aspects, the disclosed data security techniques may enable access sharing functionality utilizing the blockchain. For example, access sharing may be utilized to share policy information. The policy information may be associated with a smart contract. Accordingly, the policy information may be encrypted using a public key for the smart contract and compiled into a block of the blockchain. In response to a request to provide access to the information to a particular node, the private key for the smart contract may be encrypted using the public key for the particular node and compiled into a block of the blockchain.

Abstract: Methods and systems for processing a blockchain comprising a plurality of immutable sales records corresponding to sales made by agents of an entity are provided. According to certain aspects, a transaction request indicating a sale made by an agent of the entity may be received at a first node. A block including a sales record indicating the sale made by the agent may be added to a blockchain and transmitted to another node for validation. The first node may add the block to a copy of the blockchain, where the block may be identified by a hash value that references a previous block in the blockchain that includes at least one additional sales record.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing and/or processing a blockchain to maintain data security for confidential and/or personal data are provided. According to certain aspects, the disclosed data security techniques may enable access sharing functionality utilizing the blockchain. For example, access sharing may be utilized to file documents, share policy information, and/or comply with an audit. The data security techniques disclosed herein also enable the use of smart contracts to transfer funds associated with payment obligations and/or other forms of blockchain based payments, comply with anti-money laundering requirements, report industry data, validate interest payments and/or maintain agent sales data. Data security may be achieved through the use of public key/private key encryption techniques.

Abstract: An aircraft cabin pressure control system controls aircraft cabin pressure by reference to either the partial pressure or concentration of oxygen in the aircraft cabin. Data on ambient pressure, oxygen content, and total pressure are employed to control air pressure in the cabin.

Abstract: A fishing lure comprising a blade member having a general convex cross-sectional configuration, a plurality of eye members secured to the outer convex surface of the blade for selective connection with a fishing line, the peripheral configuration of the blade being substantially irregular egg-shaped with one portion thereof being wider than the longitudinally opposed portion, a ballast member secured to the narrower portion of the blade, and the eye members being disposed in substantial alignment along the longitudinal center line of the blade and spaced inwardly from the periphery of the wider portion thereof whereby the movement of the lure through the water during retrieval thereof is similar to the movement of a kite through the air.
