Abstract: A quinonemethide triterpenoid is administered to subjects with multidrug-resistant cancer, in particular a cancer with enhanced expression and/or functional activity of ABC transporter proteins such as P-glycoprotein and/or an apoptosis-deficient, in particular p53-, Bax- or Bak-deficient, cancer, i.e. specific subgroups of subjects with cancer. The quinonemethide triterpenoid is suitable to treat cancer allowing for an accumulation of cytotoxic or therapeutic compounds in the cells while having exceptionally increased cytotoxic activity towards the multidrug-resistant cancer cells and while allowing for an increased activity of chemotherapeutic compounds. Methods for specifically targeting cancer cells with multidrug-resistance and methods for potentiating the activity of a chemotherapeutic compound in those cancer cells are also disclosed. A kit including a quinonemethide triterpenoid and a chemotherapeutic compound is also provided.

Abstract: A method determines an optimized production schedule of a production line including a hybrid multi-cluster tool formed by a plurality of single-arm tools and dual-arm tools interconnected with each other. The method includes determining time for individual operations of a robotic arm and a processing module in the plurality of single-arm tools and dual-arm tools; determining robot waiting time of the single-arm tools and dual-arm tools based on the time for individual operations and different connection relationships of the plurality of single-arm tools and dual-arm tools; determining whether the optimized production schedule exists using the determined waiting time, wherein the optimized production schedule only exists if the hybrid multi-cluster tool is process-dominant where the robot activity time of the plurality of single-arm tools and dual-arm tools is substantially shorter than processing time at the processing module; and determining the optimized production schedule if the optimized production schedule exists.

Abstract: A method for evaluating performance of a data communication network with a receiver node arranged to initiate data transmission thereto from a plurality of transmitter nodes directly connected therewith includes applying to the data communication network a stochastic operation model arranged to model operation characteristics of the receiver node, and determining throughput or power consumption of the network based on the stochastic operation model. The operation characteristics include: a duration of a work cycle of the receiver node (Tcycle), the work cycle including an active data communication period (Thold) and an inactive period (Tdwell); a duration of the active data communication period (Thold), the active data communication period including a number of data communication events; the number of data communication events in the work cycle n; a duration of the respective data communication events (Ttx); and amount of data successfully received at the receiver node in the work cycle (Bi).

Abstract: The throughput of a wireless network can be boosted by network coding (NC). The present invention combines NC-aware routing and TDMA-based MAC protocol for energy-efficient design in the wireless network, and provides a method thereof. An optimization model, which is a minimum energy consumption model (MECM), is formulated for minimizing the energy consumption for accomplishing a set of flow transmissions. In particular, based on a set of user traffic-flow demands, a NC-aware traffic-flow assignment that minimizes a total energy consumption of packets delivering to meet the user traffic-flow demands is determined. Thereafter, given the optimal flow assignment, a minimum timeslots model (MTM) which leads to a TDMA-based scheduling strategy at the MAC layer is developed. The MTM is to minimize the total number of timeslots required for transmission under a condition that the NC-aware traffic-flow assignment as already determined is accomplishable.

Abstract: A MAC protocol, useful for wireless local area networks (WLANs), is provided for improving throughput efficiency. The protocol includes three concurrent processes, and the channel is divided into a contention subchannel and a transmission subchannel. In the contention process, all nodes use the standard RTS/CTS mechanism operated on the contention channel to contend for a right of transmission. When one node gains the right, all the nodes store the contention result into their respective contention queue (CQ) buffers. In the transmission process, the nodes sequentially transmit their data over the transmission channel according to the order of the nodes stored in the CQ buffers. When one node finishes data transmission, the CQ buffers are updated. The contention process and the transmission process are connected by the queuing process, where each node dynamically updates its own CQ buffer according to the contention result and each instance of data transmission.

Abstract: The present invention provides an in vivo platform for identifying and determining therapeutic or prophylactic activity of test compounds in delay-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and other inflammatory or cancerous diseases mediated by activation of IKK-βC46A mutants. The in vivo platform of the present invention is a non-human transgenic mammal, e.g., a mouse model, with a site directed mutagenesis at a cysteine residue replaced by alanine in IKK-β protein kinase. The site directed mutagenesis is introduced by a specially designed targeting vector containing a transversion in exon 3 of the Ikbkb genes encoding the IKK-β. The present invention also provides methods for generating the transgenic mammal and for determining and identifying compounds that can inhibit activation of IKK-βC46A mutants.
