OSGi is a wrapper above the Java Virtual Machine that embraces two concepts: component approach and service-oriented programming. The component approach enables a Java run-time to host several concurrent applications, while the service-oriented programming paradigm allows the decomposition of applications into independent units that are dynamically bound at runtime. Combining component and service-oriented programming greatly simplifies the implementation of highly adaptive, constantly evolving applications. This, in turn, is an ideal match to the requirements and constraints of ambient intelligence computing, such as adaptation to changes associated with context evolution. OSGi particularly fits ambient requirements and constraints by absorbing and adapting to changes associated with context evolution. However, OSGi needs to be finely tuned in order to integrate ambient specific issues. This paper focuses on Zero-configuration architecture, Multi-provider framework, and Limited resource requirements. The authors studied many OSGi improvements that should be taken into account when building OSGi-based gateways. This paper summarizes the INRIA Amazones teamwork (http://amazones.gforge.inria.fr/) on extending OSGi specifications and implementations to cope with ambient concerns. This paper references three main concerns: management, isolation, and security.

Radiation therapy is an important component in treatment of solid tumours, in a locally advanced situation and also in a metastatic situation. Indications for using PD- (L) -1 inhibitors increase especially in the metastatic situation, but also in locally advanced solid tumours. Preclinical data show local and systemically effective synergies between local irradiation and an application of checkpoint inhibitors. In the metastatic situation, a possible abscopal effect is of particular interest. This abscopal effect can be achieved especially in concurrent approaches of PD-(L)-1-inhibitors and stereotactic radiation with higher single doses like 3 x 8 Gy or 4 x 12,5 Gy. In locally advanced tumours a local enhancement of the radiation effect, and also an abscopal effect to eliminate potential micrometastases to is of great interest to achieve healing. In this treatment situation promising results are seen in the application of PD-(L)-1-inhibitors as maintenance after concurrent chemoradiation especially in non-small cell lung cancer, as well as in concurrent applications of conventionally fractionated radiotherapy and PD-(L)-1 inhibitors. These approaches and results are considered from the clinician’s point of view.
