Infection of human erythrocytes by the apicomplexan malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum results in endovacuolar uptake of 4 host proteins that reside in erythrocyte detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs). Whether this vacuolar transport reflects selective uptake of host DRM proteins remains unknown. A further complication is that DRMs of vastly different protein and cholesterol contents have b...

Protecting media contents and enforcing privacy policies seem to be related problems: mechanisms are needed to restrict data processing outside the copyright holder’s, respectively data subject’s, domain of control. A systematic analysis of requirements, properties, and experiences with digital rights management (DRM) reveals substantial differences between Content-DRM to protect media contents...

The Day Reconstruction Method (DRM) is a time-diary, in which respondents record how they spent their time during the previous day and felt these activities. We propose an adaptation of this interrogation technique to work setting call Work (W-DRM). W-DRM designed focus on activities, be adapted specific activities any worker. As means money for firms, take less respond to, can used by firms co...

In this paper, we propose three Deflection-Routing-based Multicast (DRM) schemes for a bufferless NoC. The DRM scheme without packets replication (DRM noPR) sends multicast packet through a nondeterministic path. The DRM schemes with adaptive packets replication (DRM PR src and DRM PR all) replicate multicast packets at the source or intermediate node according to the destination position and t...

UNLABELLED Previously, we demonstrated that the efficiency of hepatitis C virus (HCV) E2-p7 processing regulates p7-dependent NS2 localization to putative virus assembly sites near lipid droplets (LD). In this study, we have employed subcellular fractionations and membrane flotation assays to demonstrate that NS2 associates with detergent-resistant membranes (DRM) in a p7-dependent manner. Howe...

DRM (detergent-resistant membranes), which are resistant to solublization by non-ionic detergents, have been demonstrated to be involved in many key cell functions such as signal transduction, endocytosis and cholesterol trafficking. Covalent modification of proteins by fatty acylation has been proposed to be an important protein-targeting mechanism for DRM association. However, little is known...

Most of the Digital Rights Management (DRM) systems fail to cover all requirements like user anonymity, user fairness, security and others. Device based DRM systems, adopted by most providers, lack user fairness and mostly follow proprietary formats. On the contrary, Smart Card DRM systems satisfy user anonymity and fairness, but have certain vulnerabilities, as identified in this paper. We pro...

Current DRM implementations rely on obfuscating the inner working of the DRM client. Moreover, the rights to consume content are rather device bound than person bound. We present a first step towards an open DRM framework which is based on the security of its building blocks. The presented framework binds the right to consume content to persons instead of to devices. An extension of the current...

With the rapid development of mobile applications, DRM systems used for mobile terminals and wireless environment become popular. However, the present DRM schemes are not fit for mobile applications because of the new security problems in wireless environment and the limitations of mobile terminals. In this paper, a trusted license distribution system based on IPSec VPN and its correlative issu...

Digital Rights Management (DRM) systems aim to create a secure framework to control access and actions that can be performed by users (both human and machine). DRM technologies have become very important in an increasingly networked world because it promises the owner of the file persistent control over the file even when the file leaves the owner’s machine. It is not only useful in combating p...
