Abstract: A set of raw data relating to activity of one or more users in accordance with a communication network is obtained. The communication network is managed by a network operator. The obtained set of raw data is processed in accordance with at least one data isolation policy maintained by the network operator to generate a first set of data comprising at least a portion of the set of raw data with sensitive data associated with the one or more users removed; a second set of data comprising the sensitive data removed from the set of raw data; and a third set of data comprising a mapping between portions of the set of raw data and the first set of data. The first set of data is exposed to a third party, while the second set of data and the third set of data are isolated from the third party.

Abstract: Provided are methods and circuits for a resonant converter comprising at least one switch-controlled capacitor, wherein the at least one switch-controlled capacitor controls a resonant frequency of the resonant tank circuit. Provided are constant and variable switching frequency embodiments, and full-wave and half-wave switch-controlled capacitor embodiments. Also provided are interleaved resonant converters based on constant and variable switching frequency, and full-wave and half-wave switch-controlled capacitor resonant converter embodiments. Interleaved embodiments overcome load sharing problems associated with prior interleaved resonant converters and enable phase shedding to improve light load efficiency.

Abstract: A request is made by a client to be authenticated by a first cloud storage server that may be associated with a first service provider. An identity federation request is sent from the client to the first cloud storage server, wherein the identity federation request seeks to federate a user account of the client on the first cloud storage server with a user account of the client on a second cloud storage server that may be associated with a second service provider. The client is redirected from the first cloud storage server to the second cloud storage server. A request is made by the client to be authenticated by the second cloud storage server such that the second cloud storage server, once the client is authenticated, maps the user account on the first cloud storage server with the user account of the second cloud storage server and establishes identity federation there between.

Abstract: Methods for diagnosing and for evaluating the prognosis of a cancer patient, particularly a breast cancer patient, are provided. The methods include determining expression levels of at least five biomarkers in a body sample including a cancer cell from the patient, where expression levels of the biomarkers are indicative of cancer prognosis. Overexpression of the biomarkers of the invention is indicative of a poor prognosis. In some embodiments, the body sample is a breast tissue sample, particularly a primary breast tumor sample. The methods of the invention can be used in combination with assessment of conventional clinical factors and permit a more accurate evaluation of breast cancer prognosis.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to promoters of flax conlinin and ?-3 desaturase genes. The promoters guide high levels of the expression exclusively in flax developing seeds. This specific expression pattern concomitant with the biosynthesis of storage lipids and proteins make these promoters particularly useful for seed-specific modification of fatty acid and protein compositions in plant seeds.

Abstract: A technique is provided for performing a centralized secure management on a third-party application. The technique includes receiving, by the centralized secure management system, an identity, an authentication credential and an access grant of the third-party application sent by the third-party application in a distinguishable manner. The centralized secure management system forwards the identity and the access grant to an Authorization Server after successfully authenticating the third-party application. The Authorization Server issues an access token for accessing protected resources to the third-party application through the centralized secure management system when the access grant is valid.

Abstract: Methods in OMA SEC_CF for providing security services to traffic over UDP between a client and a server and the relevant entities are provided. A pre-shared key is pre-shared between the client and the server. A pair of IPSec ESP SAs between the client and the server is established without shared key negotiation, wherein traffic data cryptographic algorithms are determined. Traffic data security keys are derived from the pre-shared key via the determined traffic data cryptographic algorithms. Then, data of the traffic can be provided with security services with the traffic data security keys through use of IPSec ESP.

Abstract: Fourteen markers not previously known to be associated with liver injury have been identified. Methods to diagnose a subject for liver injury using these markers are described.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for processing register request, network element, and a communication system.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for shortening signaling delay of ISC session transfer procedure, a network element for controlling ISC session transfer, a network element for anchoring a media path in ISC session transfer and a communication system including at least two terminals and the above two network elements. In the present invention, the SCC AS decides if a media path needs to be anchored in a media anchor point MRF, and if yes, then instructs a MRF to assign respective media endpoints for a local UE and a remote UE and connect the two media endpoints together, so as to divide the session between the local UE and the remote UE into two independent sub-sessions: a session between the local UE and the MRF, and a session between the remote UE and the MRF. For these two sub-sessions, the SIP signaling is terminated and sent out in the SCC AS. Thus, when a local UE or a remote UE triggers handover, only one sub-session needs to be updated/influenced.

Abstract: The present invention proposes a method for providing the user with the customized DRM software by the service provider, wherein a universal DRM system is installed and operated in said service provider, and a standard DRM software template is as well stored in said service provider, when the user makes a request for customizing DRM software to the service provider, a customized DRM software is generated from the standard DRM software template and a universal Rights Object of this use is generated; then the customized DRM software and the universal Rights Object are sent to this user. The customized DRM software operates in the user's system containing at least one client and server.
