Abstract: A system and a method for traffic management on a network. The method including: determining a desired intent for a network operator's traffic; determining a set of classes for a traffic flow through a link; determining a minimum and target bandwidth for each class in the set of class based on the desired intent; measure user score and bandwidth use for each class; allocate a bandwidth per class based on the minimum and target bandwidth and measured user score; and shape the traffic flow to the allocated bandwidth.

Abstract: Regarding Deposited Microbial Organisms [EXPERT SOLUTION] For all deposited microbial organisms mentioned in the present patent application and which not are in collections open to the public the so-called expert solution is requested. In respect to those designations in which a European Patent is sought a sample of the deposited microorganism will be made available until the publication of the mention of the grant of the European patent or until the date on which application has been refused or withdrawn or is deemed to be withdrawn, only by the issue of such a sample to an expert nominated by the person requesting the sample, and approved either i) by the Applicant and/or ii) by the European Patent Office, whichever applies.

Abstract: The use of probiotic bacteria that modulate expression of a number of satiety markers in the intestine and reduces fat deposition to promote an optimal body weight of a mammal is described. The invention further relates to a composition comprising such a probiotic strain of bacteria and/or a fraction of said strain and/or metabolite of said strain for the preparation of a composition for administration to a mammal for promoting an optimal body weight of a mammal.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a composition comprising probiotic bacteria that regulate expression of key components involved in diet-induced insulin resistance for ameliorating or preventing diet-induced insulin resistance. The use of the probiotic strain and/or a fraction of said strain and/or metabolite of said strain for the manufacture of a medicament or a food or feed product to ameliorate diet-induced insulin resistance and help to obtain optimal body weight of a mammal is disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel, probiotic, anti-inflammatory strains of Bifidobacterium longum, their use for treatment of diseases, and for preparation of human or pet food or pharmaceutical compositions. The strains produce high amounts of exopolysaccharides with a high content of mannose- and glucose residues. Accordingly, the invention also relates to a bacterial polysaccharide composition obtained from the strains, their use for treatment of diseases, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such polysaccharides.
