Starting with the phenotype, mapping it and then going to the gene is, however, the approach of classic genetics; true reverse genetics will be increasingly practiced as fragments of DNA with transcriptional and other characteristics of a gene are investigated to determine their role in the ...
These techniques need to take into account the switch cost, in terms of time and energy, between those modes. Fig. 2.23 presents an example of a power state machine representing a microprocessor with three power states (RUN, IDLE, and SLEEP). Each state dissipates a certain level of power...
This unit opens with a presentation of a short video of a girl, Addie, who has been hospitalized and who has multiple bacterial infections that are resistant to antibiotic treatment. As part of this gripping opening, students begin to generate questions that they need to answer to explain what...
Okay, okay - that might not be particularly helpful when you're first starting out. In this section, we've listed some learning resources, in rough order from least to greatest commitment - Tutorials, Massively Open Online Courses (MOOCs), Intensive Programs, and Colleges....
This research focuses on BioScientist, a digital game-based, inquiry-based learning program embedded in the biology curriculum that develops inquiry skills
Such interests reflect the critical turn in heritage studies starting with the 2000s, as we will show in the present article. During the past two decades, the scope of cultural heritage research has continued to expand when scholars have approached it as a discursive and performative practice (...
in which H(Q,Ts) is a Heaviside function that returns a value of one unless both the sum of the first six terms in Eq. (6) (Qm = ∑Qi, with i indexing terms Qh to Qr) is positive and the surface temperature is also at the melting point; otherwise, it returns zero. The ...
Industrial scientists may be similar to academic scientists in terms of their shared understanding of particular scientific topics and norms, but differ with respect to individual-level preferences for factors such as pay, autonomy, or openness (Roach and Sauermann Citation2010). There are also ...
However, some constrained (in terms of RAM) embedded platforms execute all the application in place (directly from Flash memory). This is generally an option on very small embedded devices. The Intel architecture platforms generally do not execute in place for anything but the very initial boot ...
A driving cycle represents a typical vehicle driving pattern developed either by different countries and organizations or by researchers to assess the vehicle performance in terms of fuel consumption, emissions estimation, driving range, and so on. In other words, a driving cycle is a series of da...
