When was the last time you did something for the first time? The goal of the Dare to Be First campaign is to inspire girls and women to be trailblazers by seeing how historical female figures from the past rose above to ...
-
(2015-11-24)The factors involved in choosing between storing data repositories at locally-hosted infrastructures or at (remote) public clouds are well understood for many enterprise application domains. The proliferation of ...
-
Each day, we might find our attention drifting to somewhere else: the things we need to do, the things we shouldn’t have done, or a fantasy that popped into our heads. For most people, mind wandering happens in fleeting ...

(2013-02-18)The United States has deployed American soldiers to Afghanistan and Iraq for over a decade, often sending its soldiers for a second or third tour. The soldiers’ combat experience has changed dramatically since previous ...
-
(2012-05-04)Decay heat is an important parameter in reactor design. Fission products generate heat in the reactor core even when the reactor has shut down. This heat has potential to melt the core if heat removal is not sufficient, ...
-
(2021-05-04)Ovarian cancer is metastatic at the time of diagnosis, with the liver being one of the most common sites of metastasis. Infiltrative liver metastases are not amenable to optimal surgical removal; moreover, liver metastases ...

(2011-01-11)The HAMP (often found in Histidine kinases, Adenylate cyclases, Methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins, and Phosphatases) domain is a widely conserved motif often found in transmembrane signaling proteins in many prokaryotes ...
-
(2020-04-20)Deep learning using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has become increasingly successful in plant disease diagnosis, and consequently offers new promise in the ongoing battle against crop disease. While many studies ...
-
Monte Carlo path tracing is one of the most desirable methods to render an image from three-dimensional data thanks to its innate ability to portray physically realistic and desirable phenomena such as soft shadows, motion ...
-
After the Macondo (Deepwater Horizon; DWH) oil spill in 2010, an array of six deep ocean current moorings were deployed near the spill site for a period of two years in order to investigate the regional oceanic current ...
-
The Bosch process is a type of deep reactive-ion etching (DRIE) of silicon. It is a type of plasma etching, or dry etching, that uses physical and chemical processes to etch the surface of a silicon sample. Due to its ...
-
Deep reactive-ion etching is an important process in the fabrication of microelectromechanical system devices, through-silicon vias, and dynamic random-access memory capacitors, among other devices and components. High-quality ...
