Appl. No.:

10/678283

Inventors:

Daniel Kirchhofer - Los Altos CA, US
Mark Peek - Vallejo CA, US

Assignee:

GENENTECH, INC.

International Classification:

A61K038/18
C07K014/475

US Classification:

514/012000, 530/399000, 435/069100, 435/320100, 435/325000, 536/023500

Abstract:

Serine proteases factor XIa and kallikrein cleave and activate HGF. Cleavage is at two sites: a typical cleavage site, Arg494-Val495, and a novel cleavage site, Arg424-His425. Variant HGF fragments obtained by cleaving at one or both of these sites may be useful as agonists or antagonists of HGF. Variants or fragments obtained by modifying these cleavage sites so as to be resistant to kallikrein and/or FXIa cleavage are also provided.

International Classification:

G06K 1500

US Classification:

395114

Abstract:

An object-oriented printing system includes objects that provide query, data transfer, and control methods. The inventive object-oriented printing system communicates with the remainder of the operating system by means of a standard interface such as a grafport and printer drivers are provided for each printer type within the operating system. Thus, an application not only need not worry about the particular printer/computer combination with which it is to operate, but also need not have a built in document formatting capability. The printing system includes objects that provide queries for device identification, optimized imaging, and printer status. Other objects are also provided for data transfer to bracket connections prior to sending and receiving information. Still other objects are provided for canceling a print job, pausing a job, and clearing out a job. Finally, an object is also provided for supporting multiple streams of communication to an imaging task.

International Classification:

G06F 9/455
G06F 9/445
G06F 9/4401

Abstract:

Examples described herein include systems and methods for setting virtual machines (“VMs”) to desired configurations while the virtual machines are running. In one example, a user can select a VM and a desired configuration. An agent can then set an attribute of the virtual machine to indicate that on guest operation system (“OS”) reboot of the VM, the VM will enter BIOS mode. The agent can also store the desired configuration in the database based on authenticating the user. When the VM reboots at a future time, the attribute can cause the VM to enter BIOS setup. The agent can be notified and can retrieve the desired configuration from a database using an identifier for the VM. Then the agent can apply the desired configuration to the VM during BIOS setup with a system process that does not require further user authentication.

G06F 16/907

Abstract:

Techniques for scheduling and executing functions across a plurality of different Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS) infrastructures are provided. In one set of embodiments, a computer system can determine that a function has been invoked, where the computer system implements a spanning FaaS service platform that is communicatively coupled with the plurality of different FaaS infrastructures. In response, the computer system can retrieve metadata associated with the function, where the metadata includes criteria or policies indicating how the function should be scheduled for execution, and can retrieve information associated with each of the plurality of different FaaS infrastructures, where the information includes capabilities or characteristics of each FaaS infrastructure. The computer system can then select a FaaS infrastructure in the plurality of different FaaS infrastructures based on the retrieved metadata and the retrieved information and can schedule the function for execution on the selected FaaS infrastructure.
