Abstract:
The disclosure relates to an endothelin receptor antagonist for use in the prevention or treatment of brain metastases in combination with a cytotoxic chemotherapy agent, radiotherapy or both. The endothelin receptor antagonist may for example be bosentan, macitentan or a mixture of bosentan and macitentan.
Abstract:
A device and method for controlling the initiation of an image forming apparatus are provided using a NAND flash memory. The device for controlling initiation of an image forming apparatus includes: a NAND flash memory for storing a boot program and system control programs for initiating the image forming apparatus; a random-access-memory (RAM) for temporarily storing an execution program and data; and a driving unit arranged to first read the boot program and an engine control program among the system control programs from the NAND flash memory, execute the boot program and the engine control program, then read remaining system control programs from the NAND flash memory and store the remaining system control programs in the RAM when the boot program and the engine control program are being executed. Since the remaining system control programs and data that have not been read during printing preparation are read by driving a driving unit of the image forming apparatus, the preparation time for the image forming apparatus to begin printing operation can be greatly shortened.

Abstract:
A driver system of image forming apparatuses whose structure is improved to receive a necessary service without additional confirmation by automatically requesting a management service and to improve the efficiency of use of the image forming apparatuses and a method of controlling the same. The driver system of the image forming apparatuses that is provided in a host computer to connect the host computer to the image forming apparatuses in order to perform a management service includes an input unit to receive state information on the image forming apparatuses from the image forming apparatuses and a transmitting unit to transmit a management service requesting signal to a management service supplying unit using the input state information.

Abstract:
Provided are a system and method for enforcing a radio frequency identification (RFID) event management policy. The system includes a policy definer for defining an RFID event management policy to be used by a client to manage an apparatus on the basis of an RFID event, a policy storage for storing the RFID event management policy, a policy determiner for selecting the RFID event management policy stored in the policy storage using a profile of the client included in an RFID event management policy request when the RFID event management policy request is received from the client, and a policy enforcer converting the selected RFID event management policy according to a standard executable by the client.
Abstract:
A method and system of preventing a loss/theft of a surveillance target including a mobile device using a wireless personal area network (PAN) or a wireless local area network (LAN) which can receive, from the mobile device included in the surveillance target via a gateway, location information of the surveillance target generated by using mobile device information for the surveillance target, the mobile device information being collected by a sensor of the mobile device, and signal information communicated between the mobile device and a fixed device, can determine whether there is a loss or theft by comparing surveillance target information and a permission standard, and can provide alert information including the location information of the surveillance target when the loss or theft occurs.
Abstract:
A supporting device for a display unit for rotating a display screen to be oriented vertically. The supporting device includes a fixed member mounted on a base, an elevating member secured to the fixed member to be lifted or lowered, a pivot bracket rotatably coupled to an upper end of the elevating member while being secured to a rear surface of the display unit, an operating lever having an upper portion rotatably coupled to the upper end of the elevating member, a holder formed at the fixed member to allow the operating lever to be caught therein when being rotated rearward in a lifted state of the elevating member, a horizontally movable member secured to the upper end of the elevating member, and a cam portion formed at the pivot bracket.
Abstract:
A display apparatus having a casing in which an opening part is formed, includes: a liquid crystal display panel that is supported by the casing so that an image can be displayed through an opening part; a backlight unit that is provided behind the liquid crystal display panel and has a light source that emits light; a shield cover that is provided behind the backlight unit and is supported by at least one of the backlight unit and the casing; and a cooling fan unit that is combined to the shield cover and supplies cooling air to the backlight unit.
