Provided herein are variant alleles of a gene encoding a mu opioid receptor, along with cloning vectors for replicating such variant alleles, expressing vectors for expressing the variant alleles to produce variant mu opioid receptors, and antibodies to such variant receptors. Also disclosed are binding characteristics of such variant receptors regarding binding to opioid ligands, and the using of such binding characteristics to diagnose a subjects susceptibility to pain, susceptibility to an addictive disease, selecting an appropriate pain reliever along with a therapeutically effective amount of the reliever to administer to a subject suffering from pain. In addition, diagnostic methods for diagnosing a disease or disorder such as infertility, constipation, diarrhea, decreased immune response relative to a standard, and decreased ability to withstand stress relative to a standard, along with commercial kits for diagnosing such diseases or disorders. Furthermore, the invention is also directed to identification of targeted prevention methods, early therapeutic intervention, and improved treatment of opioid addiction, infertility, constipation, diarrhea, impaired immune responsiveness, and stress.

Systems and methods are provided for identifying a video object using digital fingerprints. The digital fingerprints are generated from information extracted from the video object including encoded video. The digital fingerprints can be calculated in a manner that permits identification of both the video object and operational characteristics of the video object based on matching calculated digital fingerprints with known fingerprints of known video objects. Systems and methods are described that allow a DVD to be uniquely identified and identify whether the DVD is original, copied or pirated. Systems and methods are described for computing digital fingerprints from strings of bits in which certain additional data is optionally embedded. Systems and methods are described that permit media players to access known signatures of known video objects maintained on one or more databases and to identify video objects presented for playing on the media player. In the parent application, the video object is extended to media content including video and audio, and DVD is extended to media file, network stream and other content mediums. In the present application, the media content is extended to real-time broadcasting signals.

A method and system of providing content-aware persistent advertisements comprises the steps of ingesting and collecting VDNA (Video DNA) fingerprints of media contents playing on various network-enabled terminals including Internet browsers, mobile devices, tablets, smart televisions and so on; sending the ingested fingerprints along with other information such as metadata, user's location, etc, to the content identification server via Internet or mobile networks, and selecting accurate advertisements according to the media content and relevant information, then finally pushing the advertisements back to user's terminal. With VDNA fingerprint identification, media contents are identified by content instead of metadata or other surrounding information, so that the result of identification can be considered genuine, and the chosen advertisements based on the media content can be persistent across multiple terminals playing the same media content.

Online and on-premise applications identify trusted authentication providers. The applications are configured with a list of trusted issuers of authentication credentials. When an application receives a request requiring authentication, the application returns a 401 response that includes the trusted issuer list. The requesting application compares the trusted issuer list from the 401 response to its own list of authentication providers. If there is a match between the two lists, then the requesting application creates a self-issued token for the authentication provider. The authentication provider uses the self-issued token to generate an authentication token for the requesting application. The requesting application may also directly create a token for a target partner application, without an authentication provider, if there is a direct trust between the two applications.

A method and an apparatus for quickly unloading a terminal are provided. The method comprises: paging a user terminal which is registered in a mobile switch to unload through a wireless access node after the mobile switch to unload receives a command of unloading the user terminal; the mobile switch to unload detecting whether a paging acknowledgement returned from the user terminal is received, if yes, sending a message to notify that the user terminal is to be unloaded, and then releasing the current signaling connection with the user terminal.

The present invention provides a device and method for realizing prefix code construction. The device includes a sort indexer, a generator and a sequence regulator. The sort indexer is used to sort a group of received code lengths to obtain a group of sorted code lengths, and record the position correspondence relationship. The generator receives the sorted code lengths and orderly generates the prefix codes. Except that the first prefix code is preconfigured, the generator generates a current prefix code by adding one to the adjacently previous prefix code and then shifting left by a certain number of bits. The sequence regulator is used to receive the prefix codes corresponding to the sorted code lengths, and regulates the sequence of the prefix codes corresponding to the sorted code lengths according to the position correspondence relationship recorded by the sort indexer to obtain the prefix codes corresponding to the code lengths.
