Patent EP-0990968-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SHAFFER SHMUEL
IPC: H04L9/32
Filed: 1999-07-21
Abstract: A method and system for providing security for a computing device
(12, 14 or 16) include resolving conflicts between a password-protected screen
saver (56) and communication notification capabilities (54) by selectively enabling
access to specific communications when the computing device is in a locked mode.
The screen saver of the computing device is configured (60) to switch (66) the
device from a normal operative mode to a locked mode in response to detection of a
preset condition, such as the expiration of an idle-time timer. The computing device
then remains in the locked mode until a preset authorization condition is recognized
(72), e.g., entering a password. However, with the computing device in the locked
mode, a subset of communication access capabilities is enabled (84). Specifically,
notification of incoming communications is enabled (78). Preferably, connectivity for
select types of outgoing calls is also enabled, e.g., connectivity for emergency calls.
In the preferred embodiment, the conflicts are resolved by integrating the screen
saver with communication access capabilities in a single software package. Also in
the preferred embodiment, the communication access capabilities are provided by a
telephony-over-LAN application and a switch to the locked mode is disabled during
communication sessions involving the computing device. In other embodiments,
while in a locked mode, incoming calls may be preconfigured by the user to
selectively break through security features based on caller identification information.
Patent EP-1055733-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BERGER-BAECHI BRIGITTE PROF DR
IPC: C12Q1/37
Filed: 1999-05-25
Abstract: The factor catalysing the first step in the synthesis of the characteristic pentaglycine
interpeptide in the  S. aureus  peptidoglycan was found to be encoded by the essential
gene  fmhB . It was found that repression of  fmhB  reduces the bacterial growth-rate
and triggers a drastic accumulation of un-crosslinked, un-modified muropeptide
precursos hereby destabilizing cell wall integrity. 
     Any shortening of said pentaglycine interpeptide reduces or even abolishes
methicillin resistance as occurred after  fmhB  repression. Because of its key role
FmhB is a general target for novel antimicrobial agents that could control the threat
of emerging multiresistant  S. aureus  and any other microorganisms containing
interpeptide bridges in their cell walls and requiring a fully functional FmhB or its
homologs for biosynthesis of said interpeptide bridges. 
     Such microorganisms are all those containing orthologous genes to  fmhB , for
instance other Staphylococci, Streptococci, Enterococci, and other species.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for accessing sets of information
stored in an information system. A user submits search criteria to an information
retrieval tool (120) via a user interface (132). From those sets of information
referenced in a corresponding response by the information retrieval tool (120), the
user may indicate at the user interface (132) that one or more are relevant. The
identity of each relevant set of information is noted by a monitor (135) and
recorded in a store (140) together with a history of search criteria used on this and
subsequent occasions to retrieve the relevant set of information. For each set of
information identified in the store (140), a weighting is calculated for each
corresponding search criterion, the weighting being indicative of the proportion of
users who, on using the search criterion with the retrieval tool (120), identified the
set of information and found it relevant. Documents identified in the store (140)
may be grouped by information category and those search criteria having a
weighting in excess of a predetermined threshold in respect of each document in
the group are identified for use in subsequent searches in that information
category.

Title: Anti-cryptococcal peptides
Inventor: PETTIT GEORGE R
IPC: C07K7/02
Filed: 1999-01-08
Abstract: Antifungals based on dolastatin 10 and four structural modifications thereof (herein "peptides") and methods of treating a host afflicted with a fungi-induced infection are herein described. In broth macrodilution assays, these peptides were fungicidal for ATCC strains and clinical isolates of Cryptococcus neoformans. Speficitity for C. neoformans was also demonstrated in the solid-phase disk diffusion assay, and fungicidal activity confirmed in killing kinetics experiments. Broth macrodilution minimum inhibitory and minimum fungicidal concentrations for the most potent modification ranged from 0.0975-1.56  mu g/ml, and 0.0975-6.24  mu g/ml, respectively. The minimum inhibitory concentrations were nearly identical in the presence of human serum, but increased with lowered pH. Suitable dosage forms for use of the novel antifungals are also described.
