In this paper, we employ the view model given by Bertino to propose a new design approach for a secure multi-level object-oriented database system. The central idea is to provide the user with a multi-level view derived from a single-level secure object-oriented database. Hence the database operations performed on the multi-level views are decomposed into a set of operations on the single-level...

At ISPEC ’12, Samelin et al. show that the redactable signature scheme introduced at VLDB ’08 by Kundu and Bertino does not always preserve the structural integrity of the tree signed. In particular, they show how redaction of non-leaves promotes descendants and allows a third party to add new edges to the signed tree. This alters the semantic meaning of the tree and is not acceptable in certai...

We introduce an adaptive search technique that speeds up state space search by learning heuristic censors while searching. The censors speed up search by pruning away moTe and more of the space until a solution is found in the pruned space. Censors are learned by explaining dead ends and other search failures. To learn quickly, the technique over-generalizes by assuming that certain constraints...

Abstract ARDS is one of the leading causes high morbidity and mortality in trauma patients. Previously our data demonstrated autologous MSCs treatment improved survival a swine model smoke inhalation burn injury. However, pathophysiological mechanisms are still largely unknown. Twenty anesthetized female underwent injury 40% TBSA burns, were then randomly assigned to either mock (IC, n=10), or ...

dracocephalum kotschyi boiss. is a traditional medicine with antispasmodic activities. the objective of this research was to study antispasmodic activities of hydroalcoholic extract of d. kotschyi on rat isolated uterus contractions for comparison with isolated ileum. hydroalcoholic extract was obtained from aerial part of d. kotschyi using percolation method. a portion of rat ileum or uterus w...

Background Rescue of exhausted T cell immunity through the inhibition PD-1/PD-L1 interaction is a pillar immunotherapeutic anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), as Nivolumab and Pembrolizumab. Despite IgG4 subclass, mAbs can bind different FcγRs trigger immunosuppressive activity in FcR-expressing myeloid cells. This effect evident when engage soluble PD-1 (sPD-1) forming stable sPD-1-antiPD-...
