摘要:
The present invention provides novel porphyrin derivatives represented by the general formula 1 and/or pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof as NIR sensitizers for photodynamic therapeutic and diagnostic, biological and industrial applications. These porphyrin derivatives possess absorption (400-700 nm) and emission (600-750 nm) in the regions where biological chromophores do not absorb and hence are ideal candidates for application as NIR PDT agents and fluorescence sensors for medicinal applications in biology. The substituents like hydroxyl and glycolic units on these dyes render them amphiphilicity thereby improving their solubility in the aqueous media and cellular uptake and localization. These dyes show no toxicity in the dark and are highly selective towards tumor cells and stain nucleus very rapidly. Accordingly, these porphyrin derivatives are extremely useful as NIR PDT fluorescence sensors in photodynamic therapeutic and diagnostic, biological and industrial applications.

An apparatus for developing portable packet processing applications on network processors includes a docking platform which provides a common interface for individual packet processing applications to be plugged into the network processing environment. Each application interacts with the docking platform through the common interfaces provided by the latter. The docking platform interacts with the other modules inside the system to accomplish the requests from the application. In this manner, the applications become “shielded” from the implementation details of the underlying hardware. The applications need not change when the network processor hardware features are changed. It therefore provides a universal packet processing programming environment in which applications can execute in a portable and flexible manner in various hardware architectures.
摘要:
A network switch apparatus, components for such an apparatus, and methods of operating such an apparatus in which data flow handling and flexibility is enhanced by the cooperation of a control point and a plurality of interface processors formed on a semiconductor substrate. The control point and interface processors together form a network processor capable of cooperating with other elements including an optional switching fabric device in executing instructions directing the flow of data in a network.

A method and system for improving stock exchange equity trade order acknowledgment times including a network appliance (“trade accelerator”) in the sub-network of the trading platforms, having a specialized network flow processor with associated micro-code and a host processor running specialized software. Specialized network appliance software sensitive to trading protocols for communicating between trading platforms and exchange servers detects latency variations in trade order acknowledgments at the exchange and recommends to subscribing trading platforms a least latency trade order path.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the diagnostic methods for identification of the single causative agent or more than one causative agent of ocular and nervous system infections among many probable pathogens, which can cause the infection. All the pathogens affecting a discrete area of eye or nervous system generally cause same clinical manifestations or syndromes. The present invention relates to detection and discrimination of the pathogen among the set of probable pathogens in a single test without resorting to a battery of tests each being directed at detection of one pathogen. The current invention aims at the syndrome based diagnostic replacing the diagnostics based on detection of individual pathogens.

摘要:
A method and system for memory management in a network processing system provides for allocation of physical memory areas within network processors coupled to a control point processor by a bus. The allocation scheme provides a memory management layer without requiring a complete operating system interface and supports asynchronous completion of the allocation requests. Multicast allocation is supported allowing an allocation to be simultaneously requested on multiple network processors. The allocation mechanism returns a token, which may then be used to access the memory location via a protocol over the bus, and a single token may refer to an allocation made on several network processors where the actual physical addresses and memory configurations are different.
