Molecular monitoring of insecticide resistance in major disease vectors in Armenia

Abstract Background Armenia is considered particularly vulnerable to life-threatening vector-borne diseases (VBDs) including malaria, West Nile virus disease and leishmaniasis. However, information relevant for the control of the vectors of...

Development and characterization of 3D spinal cord organoids to advance the study of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

High helminthic co-infection in tuberculosis patients with undernutritional status in northeastern Ethiopia

Abstract Background Tuberculosis and parasitosis are the widely distributed diseases in Ethiopia with the leading cause of mortality and morbidity, respectively. There has been no information on the status of co-infections of tuberculosis a...

Information theory and molecular biology

Dr. Yockey presents an introduction to the use of information theory in molecular biology. The book lends to molecular biology a well-developed mathematical foundation and provides mathematical definitions for the vocabulary with which basi...

Molecular Biology of the Cell

An introduction to the essentials of the molecular biology of the cell would easily fill this book. Instead I shall focus on one set of problems in molecular biology that Francis Crick, one of the discoverers of the DNA double helix, has ter...

Encyclopedia of Molecular Biology

The field of molecular biology has revolutionized the study of biology. The applications to medicine are enormous, ranging from diagnostic techniques for disease and genetic disorders, to drugs, to gene therapy. Focusing on the fundamentals...

Molecular Biology and Biotechnology

One of the exciting aspects of being involved in the field of molecular biology is the ever-accelerating rate of progress, both in the development of new methodologies and the practical applications of these methodologies. This popular text...

Molecular Biology of the Cell

As the amount of information in biology expands dramatically, it becomes increasingly important for textbooks to distill the vast amount of scientific knowledge into concise principles and enduring concepts.As with previous editions, Molecu...

Computational Molecular Biology

In one of the first major texts in the emerging field of computational molecular biology, Pavel Pevzner covers a broad range of algorithmic and combinatorial topics and shows how they are connected to molecular biology and to biotechnology....

Multi-regional energy sharing approach for shared energy storage and local renewable energy resources considering efficiency optimization

As distributed photovoltaic and shared energy storage systems expanded on the user side, developing an energy-sharing mechanism across different regions became crucial for fully utilizing local renewable energy resources and maximizing the ...

Aurelia: Dynamic asynchronous BFT with bandwidth-efficient bootstrapping

Dynamic asynchronous Byzantine Fault-Tolerant (BFT) protocols provide strong consistency guarantees in open networks with unbounded communication delays and evolving membership, making them a fundamental building block for long-lived distri...

Designing a Model for Improving Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs)

Business improvement has always been one of the basic issues in the business world. Due to the growing changes in technology, pervasive competition and the changing needs of customers, companies must pay attention to the permanence and impr...

A ROADMAP FOR A COMPUTATIONAL THEORY OF THE VALUE OF INFORMATION IN ORIGIN OF LIFE QUESTIONS

Information plays a critical role in complex biological systems. Complex systems like immune systems and ant colonies co-ordinate heterogeneous components in a decentralized fashion. How do these distributed decentralized systems function? ...

Adaptive Diagnosis in Distributed Systems

Real-time problem diagnosis in large distributed computer systems and networks is a challenging task that requires fast and accurate inferences from potentially huge data volumes. In this paper, we propose a cost-efficient, adaptive diagnos...

Performance debugging for distributed systems of black boxes

Many interesting large-scale systems are distributed systems of multiple communicating components. Such systems can be very hard to debug, especially when they exhibit poor performance. The problem becomes much harder when systems are compo...

Theory and Practice of Bloom Filters for Distributed Systems

Many network solutions and overlay networks utilize probabilistic techniques to reduce information processing and networking costs. This survey article presents a number of frequently used and useful probabilistic techniques. Bloom filters ...

Synthesizing distributed systems

In system synthesis, we transform a specification into a system that is guaranteed to satisfy the specification. When the system is distributed, the goal is to construct the system's underlying processes. Results on multi-player games imply...

A systems-level energetic framework for conscious processing: energetic organization as a constraint on large-scale neural integration

Conscious processing is associated with coordinated interactions among distributed neural systems, yet the biological constraints that enable and sustain large-scale neural integration remain incompletely understood. Contemporary theories e...
