Abstract: An apparatus and method for expediting the processing of requests in a multiprocessor shared memory system. In a multiprocessor shared memory system, requests can be processed in any order provided two rules are followed. First, no request that grants access rights to a processor can be processed before an older request that revokes access rights from the processor. Second, all requests that reference the same cache line are processed in the order in which they arrive. In this manner, requests can be processed out-of-order to allow cache-to-cache transfers to be accelerated. In particular, foreign requests that require a processor to provide data can be processed by that processor before older local requests that are awaiting data. In addition, newer local requests can be processed before older local requests. As a result, the apparatus and method described herein may advantageously increase performance in multiprocessor shared memory systems by reducing latencies associated with a cache consistency protocol.

Abstract: A multiple-dose syringe including a barrel with a closed end and an open end, the closed end having an injection port adapted to receive a needle. A plunger is slidably disposed through the open end of the barrel. A container is connected to an end of the plunger to move with the plunger. The container has a deformable shell with an opening at a forward end thereof and a predetermined quantity of fluid sealed therein by a closure member disposed over the opening. The container is slidably disposed in the barrel and includes a seal proximal to the forward end to form a first cavity in the barrel with a volume that is adjustable by moving the container in the barrel with the plunger so that fluid can be selectively drawn into and expelled from the first cavity. After at least a substantial portion of the fluid is expelled from the first cavity, the shell is configured to be collapsed by further pressure applied by the plunger to expel the predetermined quantity of fluid contained therein.

Abstract: Provided are a recombinant Sendai virus vector for introducing exogenous genes to airway epithelia and a method for introducing exogenous genes using the vector. The recombinant Sendai virus vector enables efficient gene transfer to native mucus-layered airway epithelial cells by briefly contacting the vector with the cells. Furthermore, the vector can introduce genes to not only apical surfaces but also submucosal glands where CFTR primarily expresses. The vector can thus be used for gene therapy of CF, a CFTR-deficient disease.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble de vannes régulant l'écoulement d'un fluide hydraulique vers plusieurs vérins hydrauliques depuis une pompe à cylindrée variable produisant une pression de sortie égale à une pression d'entrée de régulation plus une pression limite prédéfinie. La pression d'entrée de régulation est une fonction de la pression de charge la plus élevée aux vérins hydrauliques. Chaque vanne comprend une vanne de compensation de pression associée qui régule la pression différentielle à travers un orifice de mesure de chaque vanne à un niveau prédéfini, généralement la pression limite de la pompe. Un régulateur de débit est associé à au moins une des vannes; ce régulateur réduit la pression de sortie provenant de la pompe de manière à produire une pression réduite qui régule la vanne de compensation de pression associée. Le fonctionnement du régulateur de débit permet d'obtenir une pression différentielle à travers l'orifice de mesure de la vanne associée, inférieure à la pression limite de la pompe, ce qui permet la régulation de l'écoulement fluidique.
