Title: Dual-phase fluid motor-pump
Inventor: JISJOE THALACKOTTORE JOSE
IPC: H01L23/433
Filed: 2021-06-07
Abstract: A dual-phase motor-pump and evaporative cooling system is disclosed. The dual-phase motor-pump (a positive displacement vapour motor) comprises a common cylinder containing a piston chamber 6d housing a spring biased free piston 6b with a skirt 6a and a liquid one-way valve 6c. In use the piston 6b is cyclically propelled by the vapour phase of a coolant fluid, coming from an evaporatively cooled hotplate 1, working with the spring to displace coolant into the plunger chamber 6d via the valve 6c and expel the liquid into a cooling chamber 4a. The liquid diffuses via a thermo-fluid wick 2a to the hotplate 1. The system is self-sustaining, using a portion of the extracted waste heat, and self-regulating by virtue of the cyclic vapour generation and condensation of the coolant. The motor-pump and cooling system may be used to cool a central processing unit (CPU), the cylinder liner of a heat engine, the cells of a battery or the insulated gated bipolar transistor (IGBT) module of an inverter.

Title: Resource manager for transaction processing systems
Inventor: JACK CHIU-CHIU YUAN
IPC: G06F11/07
Filed: 2021-10-19
Abstract: A resource manager (RM) instance is associated with each transaction processing system (TPS) member, of a TPS group. Each RM instance monitors performance of the associated TPS member. If a TPS member becomes unavailable for any reason (a failing TPS), the associated RM instance broadcasts status of the failing TPS to RMs associated “surviving” members of the group. RM instances associated with surviving members initiate a series of actions that reduce the resources used by the surviving TPS members. Consequently, the surviving TPS members are better able to process the additional workload imposed on them due to the unavailability of the failing TPS. Once the failing TPS is brought back online and made available again (or a replacement TPS is brought online), RM instances associated with the surviving members perform actions to undo the resource usage reduction tasks, and the TPS group returns to a nominal configuration.
Patent GB-2612309-A (GB)
Title: Threshold signature scheme
Inventor: Michaella Pettit
IPC: H04L9/32
Filed: 2021-10-26
Abstract: A threshold signature scheme comprises target participants and dummy participants, where the number of target participants is less than the number of participants needed to generate a valid signature. Each target or dummy participant has a respective share of a first private key A, an ephemeral private key K, and first and second blinding keys (ALPHA, BETA). Each target participant has an ephemeral public key P corresponding to K. To generate a share of a threshold signature, a target participant generates a first intermediate key (MU), using its self-generated intermediate key share and shares received from other participants (target, dummy), where each intermediate key share is generated based on shares of K and ALPHA. A second intermediate key (LAMBDA) is derived, in a similar fashion, using respective shares of A, ALPHA and BETA. An inverse ephemeral key share is also generated using an inverse of MU and using a share of ALPHA. A share of a pre-signature value (SIGMA) is generated based on P, the inverse of MU, LAMBDA and share of BETA. A second component of the threshold signature (the first is based on P) is generated using a message and respective shares of K and SIGMA.

Filed: 2021-07-29
Abstract: A thermal compensator, for use in connection with arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) modules which are, in turn, utilized in conjunction with wavelength multiplexing and de-multiplexing within optical networks, is disclosed.

Title: Griseofulvin as an adjunct drug for the treatment of cerebral and severe malaria
Inventor: VISWANATHAN ARUN NAGARAJ
IPC: A61K31/343
Filed: 2021-11-15
Abstract: Malaria remains a major concern of morbidity and mortality. Despite treating infected individuals with artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs), cerebral and severe malaria cause enormous mortality in children and adults. The only treatment option is parenteral administration of artemisinin or quinine with supportive symptomatic therapies. However, the fatality rate remains high despite parasite clearance emphasizing the need of adjunct therapy to prevent malaria mortality. In this invention, heme synthesized in the malaria parasite is shown to be associated with parasite virulence, disease severity and cerebral pathogenesis. Parasite heme enhances the formation of hemozoin - a parasite molecule associated with cerebral and severe malaria. Griseofulvin prevents experimental cerebral malaria (ECM) by inhibiting parasite heme synthesis and hemozoin formation, without affecting parasite growth. Griseofulvin exhibits synergy with arteether - the principal component of ACTs and prevents ECM. Griseofulvin is claimed as an adjunct drug for ACTs and other antimalarials to prevent malaria mortality.
