Long polling is a technique that simulates server push using Ajax requests, allowing Web pages to be updated quickly in response to server events. Unfortunately, existing long poll approaches are difficult to use, do not work well with server-side frameworks based on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern, and are not scalable. Vault is an architecture for long polling that integrates cleanly ...

Vault particles are naturally occurring proteinaceous cages with promising application as molecular containers. The use of vaults as functional transporters requires a profound understanding of their structural stability to guarantee the protection and controlled payload delivery. Previous results performed with bulk techniques or at non-physiological conditions have suggested pH as a parameter...

Fuzzy vault is a well-known technique to address the privacy concerns in biometric identification applications. We revisit the fuzzy vault scheme to address implementation, efficiency, and security issues encountered in its realization. We use the fingerprint data as a case study. We compare the performances of two different methods used in the implementation of fuzzy vault, namely brute force ...

To the Editor: In their recent article, Reinstein et al.1 described the use of the Artemis 2 very high frequency digital ultrasound (ArcScan, Inc., Morrison, CO) to calculate the fit of the Visian Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL). Another parameter previously proposed as influencing ICL vaulting is the crystalline lens anterior radius of curvature (ALR).2 The ALR has not yet been used in any pre...

The important aspect of all verification system is authentication and security. This aspect necessitates the development of a method that ensures user security and privacy. The traditional methods such as tokens and passwords provide security to the users. Uncertainly, the attackers can easily compromise these techniques. In recent years, the combination of biometrics and cryptography technique...

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of the flexural strength on denture bases fabricated on different palatal vault depths. Also, to compare the flexural strength of high impact heat cure resin with regular heat cure resin denture bases. Edentulous casts with deep, medium and shallow palatal vault depth were selected. Three different moulds were made in silicone duplicating materia...

Fuzzy vault is a practical and promising scheme, which can protect biometric templates and perform secure key management simultaneously. Alignment of the template biometric sample and the query one in the encrypted domain remains a challenging task. While implementing fuzzy fingerprint vault, the accuracy of alignment in encrypted domain cannot be ensured and the information leakage may be caus...

solitary plasmocytoma is rarely located in the cranial vault. we report one case of solitary plasmacytoma of the skull and discuss the clinical features and treatment of this uncommon tumor in the light of the published cases. a 46-year-old moroccan male, without previous history consulted for a swelling in medial frontal and paramedian region. on clinical examination the clinical examination r...
