In a network of computer nodes, a directory service provides both the physical location of directory information around the network and the directory information itself in a single data structure. This single data structure is distributed throughout the network, and continuously redistributed, so as to create a directory service that is both more flexible, and more robust, than prior art directory services.

Distributed shared memory systems and processes that can connect into each node of a computer network to encapsulate the memory management operations of the connected nodes and to provide thereby an abstraction of a shared virtual memory that can span across each node of the network and that optionally spans across each memory device connected to the computer network. Accordingly, each node on the network having the distributed shared memory system of the invention can access the shared memory.

A network of computer node interface to globally addressable memory system that provides persistent storage of data exchange periodic connectivity information. The exchanged connectivity information provides information regarding node failure to other nodes in the system, and the surviving nodes use the information to determine which node, if any, has ceased functioning. Various processes are used to recover the portion of the global address space for which the failed node was responsible, including RAM directory, disk directory, or file system information. Additionally, nodes may be subdivided into groups and connectivity information is exchanged between nodes belonging to a group. Each group then exchanges group-wise connectivity information and failures may be recovered.

A multi-user file storage service and system enables each user of a user group to operate an arbitrary client node at an arbitrary geographic location to communicate with a remote file server node via a wide area network. More than one user of the user group is permitted to access the file group at the remote file server node simultaneously, but the integrity of the files is maintained by controlling access so that each access to one of the files at the remote file server is performed, if at all, on a respective portion of that file as most recently updated at the remote file server node.
摘要:
A multi-user file storage service and system enable each user of a pre-subscribed user group to communicate with a remote file server node via a wide area network and to access the files of the file group via the respective client node. More than one user of the pre-subscribed user group is permitted to access the file group at the remote file server node simultaneously. Integrity of the files at the remote file server node are maintained by controlling each access to each file at the remote file server node so that each access to files at the remote file server is performed, if at all, on a respective portion of each file as most recently updated at the remote file server node. Additionally, an encrypted key is transferred from the file server node to a particular client node via a secure channel. The encrypted key uses an encryption function and a decryption function not known locally at the remote file server. Furthermore, both privileged access control rights and file sharing mode access control to a particular file of the group of files are delegated to one or more distributed nodes other than the remote file server node which provides the data.

The present invention provides inhibitors of kynureninase having the formula ##STR1## where X is CHOH, S, SO.sub.2, SO, SONH.sub.2, PO.sub.2 H or PONH.sub.2, R.sub.a and R.sub.b, independently of one another are H, a halogen, CF.sub.3 or a small alkyl group having one to three carbon atoms; R.sub.1 is H, NH.sub.2, NR.sub.6 RT, NO.sub.2, halogen, CF.sub.3 or a small alkyl group having from one to three carbon atoms, wherein: R.sub.6 and R.sub.7, independently of one another, are H, a formyl group or a small alkyl group having from one to three carbon atoms with the exception that only one of R.sub.6 or R.sub.7 can be a formyl group; R.sub.2 is OH, H, halogen, CF.sub.3 or a small alkyl group having from one to three carbon atoms; and R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5, independently of one another, are H, halogen, CF.sub.3, NO.sub.2, NH.sub.2, or small alkyl group having from one to three carbon atoms. In particular, compounds of this formula in which X is CHOH, S or SO.sub.2 are provided. In compounds of this formula in which X is CHOH, those having the (.alpha.S,.gamma.S) configuration or the (.alpha.R,.gamma.R) configuration when R.sub.A or R.sub.B is a hydrogen, are more potent inhibitors of kynureninase. Inhibitors of mammalian kynureninase are of particular use in therapy for certain neurological disorders.
摘要:
A pump assembly (20) includes a rotor (40) and a stator (38) which are disposed within a housing (24) and partially define pumping chambers (56). Fluid is conducted through an inlet passage (104) to an inlet cavity (58) which is connected with the pumping chambers (56). Fluid is conducted from the pumping chambers (56) to an outlet (62) from the pump assembly (20). A tubular passage liner (112) is disposed in the inlet passage (104) and has a straight passage (138) through which fluid flow is conducted to the inlet cavity (58). The tubular passage liner (112) prevents erosion of the housing (24) during conduction through the inlet passage (104) of inlet fluid and fluid bypassed from the outlet (62) of the pump assembly (20). Projections (204 and 206) at one end of the tubular passage liner (112) are engageable with the stator (38) to limit movement of the tubular passage liner relative to the stator. The tubular passage liner (112) is installed in the inlet passage (104) by first closing a slot (180) to reduce the cross-sectional size of the tubular passage liner. The tubular passage liner (112) is then inserted into the inlet passage (104). The slot (180) is then opened to increase the size of the tubular passage liner (112).
摘要:
The present invention provides inhibitors of kynureninase having the formula ##STR1## where X is CO or CHOH; R.sub.A and R.sub.B, independently of one another, are H, a halogen, a halovinyl group, or a small alkyl or haloalkyl group having one to three carbon atoms; A is a H or an acetyl group; R.sub.1 is H, NH.sub.2, NR.sub.6 R.sub.7, NO.sub.2, halogen, CF.sub.3 or a small alkyl group having from one to three carbon atoms, wherein: R.sub.6 and R.sub.7, independently of one another, are H, a formyl group or a small alkyl group having from one to three carbon atoms with the exception that only one of R.sub.6 or R.sub.7 can be a formyl group; R.sub.2 is OH, H, halogen, CF.sub.3 or a small alkyl group having from one to three carbon atoms; and R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5, independently of one another, are H, halogen, CF.sub.3, NO.sub.2, NH.sub.2, or small alkyl group having from one to three carbon atoms, and with the proviso that when X=CO, neither R.sub.A nor R.sub.B can be CF.sub.3. In compounds of this formula in which X is CHOH, those having the (.alpha.S,.gamma.S) configuration or the (.alpha.R,.gamma.R) configuration when R.sub.A or R.sub.B is a hydrogen, are more potent inhibitors of kynureninase. Inhibitors of mammalian kynureninase are of particular use in therapy for certain neurological disorders.
