An optimization model is introduced in which proteins try to evade high energy regions of the folding landscape, and prefer low entropy loss routes during folding.We make use of the framework of optimal control whose convenient solution provides practical and useful insight into the sequence of events during folding.We assume that the native state
GPU-Enabled Serverless Workflows for Efficient Multimedia Processing
Serverless computing Seat Guide has introduced scalable event-driven processing in Cloud infrastructures.However, it is not trivial for multimedia processing to benefit from the elastic capabilities featured by serverless applications.To this aim, this paper introduces the evolution of a framework to support the execution of customized runtime envi
Ant communities (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in an urban ecosystem near the Atlantic Rainforest
The relationships Lights between an urban ecosystem located near the Atlantic Rainforest in southeastern Brazil and ant communities were studied with the objective of quantifying the ant richness and abundance in the household environment and its surroundings.Eighty residences were sampled, where 58 species and 28 genera pertaining to 7 sub-familie
Integration and Application of Microlens Arrays Within Heads-Up Displays
The proposed work targets a fundamental challenge in heads-up display technology-in that such displays must bring about tight imaging with a flat form factor to support integration within eyewear.A Gabor superlens, being coupled Selenium plano-concave and plano-convex microlens arrays (MLAs), is developed to meet this challenge.The MLAs are designe
