PALO ALTO, CA, August 01, 2011 (Press-News.org) Enterprise IT architects and developers face the dual demands of optimizing their service-oriented architecture (SOA) implementations on-premise while also seeking ways to leverage the cloud. This month, WSO2 (http://wso2.com?080111w) delivers technical workshops designed to address two of enterprises' top SOA challenges: enterprise integration and security in the cloud.
Security in the Cloud: August 4, 2011, Palo Alto, CA
The WSO2 "Security in the Cloud" workshop will identify the security challenges that can stop or slow a move to the cloud, review open source cloud middleware and security solutions, and explore best practices for safely maximizing the benefits of cloud. Topics include:
* Patterns and practices for overcoming the risks and challenges associated with different cloud deployment models.
* Best practices for ensuring data security in a multi-tenant environment.
* Approaches for building an effective governance model across all cloud services.
* How to build a cloud identity and access management solution using open standards, such as Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0, OpenID, OAuth, eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML), and Smart Common Input Method (SCIM).

ESBs and Enterprise Integration: August 10, 2011, New York, NY
The "ESBs and Enterprise Integration" workshop will provide both a high-level architectural view of how an enterprise service bus (ESB) fits within an SOA and demonstrate how an ESB can be deployed for connecting, mediating, orchestrating and managing application integration. Topics include:
* The role of an ESB within an SOA and benefits of loosely coupled application architectures.
* Patterns for mediation, application programming interface (API) management, and master data management.
* The use of ESBs for messaging, queuing and eventing.
* The ESB as a component of process orchestration, security and governance.
* Deployment patterns for high availability, load balancing, and performance tuning using real-world customer examples.
* Complementary integration technologies, including adaptors for SAP, Salesforce.com, Health Level Seven (HL7), Financial Information eXchange (FIX), and PayPal.
Leading the workshop are Asanka Abeysinghe, WSO2 director of solutions architecture (http://wso2.com/about/leadership/asanka-abeysinghe?080111w), and Chintana Wilamuna, WSO2 associate technical lead (http://wso2.com/about/team/chintana-wilamuna?080111w).

Breakthrough lights way for RNA discoveries
2011-08-01
NEW YORK (July 28, 2011) -- The ability to tag proteins with a green fluorescent light to watch how they behave inside cells so revolutionized the understanding of protein biology that it earned the scientific teams who developed the technique Nobel Prizes in 2008. Now, researchers at Weill Cornell Medical College have developed a similar fluorescent tool that can track the mysterious workings of the various forms of cellular RNA.
In the July 29 issue of Science, the Weill Cornell investigators report how they developed an RNA mimic of green fluorescent protein (GFP) ...
Mannan oligosaccharides offer health benefits to pigs
2011-08-01
Feeding mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) can fine-tune the immune system of pigs, suggests a new University of Illinois study.
"When it comes to keeping pigs healthy, there are some potentially powerful tools we can use in the diet besides antibiotics," said James Pettigrew, U of I professor of animal science. "We have a tendency to think that we can administer health through a needle, by giving pigs antibiotics, and even through systems like all-in/all-out pig flow. These are important, but there are also many health benefits we can realize through the diet."
MOS is a ...
More illness, doctor visits reported in years after Sept. 11, UCI study finds
2011-08-01
Irvine, Calif., July 28, 2011 — The events of Sept. 11, 2001, changed the way Americans travel and view the world. They may also have made us sicker and more likely to access healthcare services, according to a new UC Irvine study.
In the first three years after the terrorist attacks, researchers found, reports of doctor-diagnosed illness climbed by 18 percent in a nationally representative sample of adults. The jump was highest in those with pre-existing health conditions, but people who were healthy before 9/11 also experienced an increase in physician-diagnosed ailments. ...
Warming climate could give exotic grasses edge over natives
2011-08-01
California's native grasses, already under pressure from invasive exotic grasses, are likely to be pushed aside even more as the climate warms, according to a new analysis from the University of California, Berkeley.
In the study, which has been accepted for publication in the journal Global Change Biology and is now available online, UC Berkeley biologists catalogued the ranges of all 258 native grasses and 177 exotic grasses in the state and estimated how climate change – in particular, increased temperature and decreased rainfall – would change them.
They concluded ...
Caltech researchers increase the potency of HIV-battling proteins
2011-08-01
PASADENA, Calif.—If one is good, two can sometimes be better. Researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have certainly found this to be the case when it comes to a small HIV-fighting protein.
The protein, called cyanovirin-N (CV-N), is produced by a type of blue-green algae and has gained attention for its ability to ward off several diseases caused by viruses, including HIV and influenza. Now Caltech researchers have found that a relatively simple engineering technique can boost the protein's battling prowess.
"By linking two cyanovirins, we were ...

2011-08-01
The research efforts of University of Guam scientist Thomas Marler have put Guam's endangered native cycad, Cycas micronesica (fadang is the Chamorro name) on the cover of the June 2011 International Journal of Plant Sciences (IJPS). Published by the University of Chicago Press, IJPS is an important source for researchers looking for new and dynamic articles in the field of botany.
In this recently published article, Marler and Cornell University botanist Karl Niklas compared Guam cycads growing in different habitats to examine the influence of the environment on reproductive ...
Low blood pressure during dialysis increases risk of clots, according to Stanford-led study
2011-08-01
STANFORD, Calif. — A sudden drop in blood pressure while undergoing dialysis has long vexed many kidney patients. Side effects associated with this situation over the long term range from stroke to seizure to heart damage to death. Patients also suffer in the short term with gastrointestinal, muscular and neurologic symptoms.
Now one more disturbing side effect can be been added to this list.
A study led by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine reports an increased risk of blood clotting at the point where the patient's blood vessels are connected ...
Averting bridge disasters: New technology could save hundreds of lives
2011-08-01
COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Millions of U.S. drivers cross faulty or obsolete bridges every day, highway statistics show, but it's too costly to fix all these spans or adequately monitor their safety, says a University of Maryland researcher who's developed a new, affordable early warning system.
This wireless technology could avert the kind of bridge collapse that killed 13 and injured 145 along Minneapolis' I-35W on Aug. 1, 2007, he says - and do so at one-one-hundredth the cost of current wired systems.
"Potentially hundreds of lives could be saved," says University of Maryland ...
Fast ripples confirmed to be valuable biomarker of area responsible for seizure activity in children
2011-08-01
New research focusing on high-frequency oscillations, termed ripples and fast ripples, recorded by intracranial electroencephalography (EEG), may provide an important marker for the localization of the brain region responsible for seizure activity. According to the study now available in Epilepsia, a journal of the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE), the resection of brain regions containing fast ripples, along with the visually-identified seizure-onset zone, may achieve a good seizure outcome in pediatric epilepsy.
High-frequency oscillations at 80-200 Hz ...
