Abstract: The invention relates to the field of transplantation, specifically to the field of transplantation of isolated cells. The invention provides a method to allow cell transplantation as a method to replace organ transplantation. Anti-integrin (poly)peptides significantly block attachment of cells to both vessel walls and tissue in an in vitro binding assay. Blocking of integrins by incubation with blocking (poly)peptides significantly decreases the number of cellular aggregates after in vivo cell transplantation, and has a significant increasing effect on cellular homing in the recipient tissue. Blocking of integrin strongly improves transplanted cell survival in the recipient tissue after transplantation.

Abstract: On décrit un système de contrôle et de validation des réservations de conférence multimédia qui comprend une base de données incluant l'ensemble des ressources couramment réservées sur chaque serveur multimédia multipoint (MMS) commandé par le contrôleur des réservations, lequel identifie chaque ressource ainsi que l'heure de début et de fin de la réservation. Le système de validation est conçu pour valider une requête de réservation accompagnée d'une liste des ressources requises, dans le cas où des ressources flexibles sont considérées des ressources désirables mais non pas absolument nécessaires. En réponse à une requête de réservation sollicitant un seul MMS, le système de validation s'introduit dans la base de données et construit une liste de ressources accompagnée des tranches horaires durant lesquelles ces ressources sont déjà réservées. Cette liste est utilisée pour créer une matrice de disponibilité des ressources, laquelle est ensuite analysée en vue de générer une liste indiquant les tranches horaires durant lesquelles les ressources requises sont disponibles. En outre, l'analyse matricielle indique également quelles ressources exactement doivent être utilisées pour satisfaire la requête pour chaque tranche horaire. En réponse à une requête de réservation sollicitant deux unités de MMS (202), le système de validation construit deux matrices de disponibilité des ressources (236), une pour chaque MMS, lesquelles sont analysées pour générer une liste indiquant les tranches horaires pendant lesquelles la conférence peut être réservée et les ressources mises en oeuvre.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur une passerelle (10) de confiance placée entre un environnement (16) informatique non de confiance extérieur et un environnement (12) informatique de confiance intérieur qui convertit les messages reçus de l'environnement extérieur en messages simplifiés, et les messages simplifiés en messages utilisables par l'environnement intérieur. La conversion implique l'extraction des protocoles de transfert de l'environnement extérieur, et la réduction du contenu des messages déposés après le retrait des protocoles pour donner une représentation simplifiée du contenu génératrice du message simplifié. Cette représentation simplifiée est convertie en message intérieur en la rendant compatible avec l'environnement intérieur, y compris les applications y tournant, et en ajoutant au message converti les protocoles de l'environnement intérieur. Il existe des représentations simplifiées pour certains des types de contenu (mais pas pour tous) pouvant être reçues de l'environnement extérieur, ce qui limite le contenu pouvant passer de l'environnement extérieur à l'environnement intérieur.
