A review, with refs. This contribution analyzes the position of biochem. engineering in general and bioprocess engineering particularly in the force fields between fundamental science and applications, and between academia and industry. By using culture te ...
It is clear to all, after a moments thought, that nature has much wemight be inspired by when designing our systems, for example: robustness, adaptability and complexity, to name a few. The implementation of bio-inspired systems in hardware has however bee ...
In order to make the transfer of biological principles to engineering problems successful, it is important to study the fundamental properties of biological systems. The goal is to arrive with useful abstractions that are (1) implementable, (2) testable by ...
A review. Rational and efficient process development in chem. technol. always makes heavy use of process anal. in terms of balances, kinetics, and thermodn. While the first two of these concepts have been extensively used in biotechnol., it appears that th ...
For a software system to be perceived as a success, or even just as properly functioning, many quality attributes, besides functionality, need to be at an acceptable level. However, current software development processes focus on the functional aspects of ...
Professor James E. Bailey was not only a world-renowned leader and pioneer in biochem. engineering but also a mentor to the many graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in his group. To provide non-"Bailey-ites" with an impression of Jay as a mentor ...
