Abstract: Techniques to support location services for a roaming mobile station are described. The mobile station may communicate with a serving mobile switching center (MSC) in a serving network. A roaming service provider (RSP) network may map an actual MSC identity (MSCID) of the serving MSC to a generic MSCID and may provide the generic MSCID to a home network. A home mobile positioning center (H-MPC) may map the generic MSCID to an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a mapping server within the RSP network and may send a location request message containing a mobile station identity (MSID) to the mapping server. The mapping server may determine a serving mobile positioning center (S-MPC) based on the MSID and may forward the message to the SMPC. The mapping server may also receive a location response message from the S-MPC and may forward the message to the H-MPC.

It has been surprisingly and unexpectedly found that quina-zolines having 3- Ethynyl anilino group at the 4th position and specifically substituted alkoxy groups in the 6 and 7 positions, im-part much enhanced and special anti-proliferative properties when compared to other prominent members of the quinazoline class of drugs. Also, surprisingly the compounds of this invention are much less toxic and the safety profile is exceedingly beneficial for therapeutic applications. The novel chemical entities described in this invention are designated by the general structure (I) and have not been synthesized earlier nor investigated for their therapeutic benefits and safety profile. Compound (I) is NRC-2694, when structure (A).
