The rapid development of the Internet has created new opportunities for teaching in general and it is our aim to show how the current evolution can best be exploited for crystallography education in particular. Currently, we can find a very large selection ...
Following the seminal work of Von Dreele, high quality powder X-ray diffraction studies on proteins are being established as a valuable complementary technique to single-crystal measurements. Several studies using a variety of experiments approaches have b ...
As data collections become larger and larger, users are faced with increasing bottlenecks in their data analysis. More data means more time to prepare the data, to load the data into the database and to execute the desired queries. Many applications alread ...
Piano Key Weir description involves a lot of geometrical parameters which designations are now well defined. A naming convention has been developed to enhance exchanges and cooperation between the numerous developers. This nomenclature was presented and di ...
Mobile, social, real-time: the ongoing revolution in the way people communicate has given rise to a new kind of epidemiology. Digital data sources, when harnessed appropriately, can provide local and timely information about disease and health dynamics in ...
The estimation and validation of pedestrian behavioral models requires large amounts of detailed and appropriate data, the collection of which is a costly and time-consuming undertaking. The identification and design of an appropriate data collection metho ...
This thesis studies the phenomenon of jamming in granular media, such as when a salt shaker gets clogged. We use modern instrumentation, like X-ray synchrotron tomography, to look inside real jamming experiments. High performance computers allow simulating ...
Because of the abundance of news on the web, news recommendation is an important problem. We compare three approaches for personalized news recommendation: collaborative filtering at the level of news items, content-based system recommending items with sim ...
The ramp technology was integrated in the Hard Disk Drive a couple of years ago, this technology allows a safer parking position for the heads, but also allow the heads to fly closer from the media, increasing the data density. The Load and Unload operatio ...
Enhanced global connectivity, networks’ capacity to carry data, and increases in transmission speed already affect the way architectural practices work. With computer-assisted drafting (CAD) equipment now used by the overwhelming majority of architectural ...
