Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for data transformation are disclosed. An exemplary apparatus includes a first memory, a second memory, a cross-bar switch communicatively coupled between the first memory and the second memory, and a lookup table that specifies one or more memory addresses of the first memory to read out to the cross-bar switch, one or more memory addresses of the second memory to which to write data from the cross-bar switch, and a configuration of the cross-bar switch. An exemplary method includes determining, based on a lookup table, one or more memory addresses of a first memory to read out to a cross-bar switch, determining, based on the lookup table, one or more memory addresses of a second memory to which to write data from the cross-bar switch, and determining, based on the lookup table, a configuration of the cross-bar switch.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for improved inter-domain routing convergence, include transmitting reason information associated with a route update or withdraw. An apparatus receiving the reason information associated with the update or withdraw uses the reason information to determine which of its candidate routes are also affected by substantially the same event that triggered the initial route update or withdraw and which of its candidate routes are not affected. For example, a candidate route may be considered to be transient if the apparatus receiving the reason information determines from the received reason information that a candidate route is going to be updated or withdrawn in the near future due. A candidate route considered as a transient route is avoided being advertised as a preferred route.

Abstract: Thermostable omega-transaminases, particularly thermostable omega-transaminases which have a high reaction rate and which are tolerant to high concentrations of donor amine, can be used to enrich enantiomerically a mixture of chiral amines or to synthesize stereoselectively one of a pair of chiral amines in which the amino group is bound to a non-terminal, chirally substituted, carbon atom.

Abstract: The invention includes a method and apparatus for providing secure remote access to enterprise networks. An apparatus includes a network interface module adapted for maintaining a secure network connection with a network device independent of a power state of a host computer associated with the apparatus a storage module for storing information associated with the secure connection, and a processor coupled to the network interface and the memory where the processor is adapted for automatically initiating the secure connection without user interaction.

Abstract: For use with a path vector routing protocol, a system and method for increasing alternative network route convergence speed and a border gateway router incorporating the system or the method. In one embodiment, the system includes: (1) a router information base (RIB) data receiver, associated with a network, that receives RIB data including: (1a) an update of an active route to a domain in the network that causes the active route to become a withdrawn route and (1b) indications, based on loopback addresses associated with nodes through which the withdrawn route passed, of a reachability of the each of the nodes and (2) route disqualification logic, associated with the RIB data receiver, that disqualifies alternative routes to the domain based on the indications.
