https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UbiD%20protein%20domain | In molecular biology this protein domain, refers to UbiD, which is found in prokaryotes, archaea and fungi, with two members in Archaeoglobus fulgidus. They are related to UbiD, a 3-octaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoate carboxy-lyase from Escherichia coli that is involved in ubiquinone biosynthesis. The member from Helicobacter... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly%20%28programming%29 | In computer programming an assembly is a runtime unit consisting of types and other resources. All types in an assembly have the same version number.
Often, one assembly has only one namespace and is used by one program. But it can span over several namespaces. Also, one namespace can spread over several assemblies. I... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-keylogger | An anti-keylogger (or anti–keystroke logger) is a type of software specifically designed for the detection of keystroke logger software; often, such software will also incorporate the ability to delete or at least immobilize hidden keystroke logger software on a computer. In comparison to most anti-virus or anti-spywar... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leavening%20agent | In cooking, a leavening agent () or raising agent, also called a leaven () or leavener, is any one of a number of substances used in doughs and batters that cause a foaming action (gas bubbles) that lightens and softens the mixture. An alternative or supplement to leavening agents is mechanical action by which air is i... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcritical%20cycle | A transcritical cycle is a closed thermodynamic cycle where the working fluid goes through both subcritical and supercritical states. In particular, for power cycles the working fluid is kept in the liquid region during the compression phase and in vapour and/or supercritical conditions during the expansion phase. The ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StarBase%20%28biological%20database%29 | StarBase is a database for decoding miRNA-mRNA, miRNA-lncRNA, miRNA-sncRNA, miRNA-circRNA, miRNA-pseudogene, protein-lncRNA, protein-ncRNA, protein-mRNA interactions, and ceRNA networks from CLIP-Seq (HITS-CLIP, PAR-CLIP, iCLIP, CLASH) and degradome sequencing data. StarBase provides miRFunction and ceRNAFunction web ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea%20turtle%20migration | Sea turtle going to sunbathe is the long-distance movements of sea turtles (superfamily Chelonioidea) notably the long-distance movement of adults to their breeding beaches, but also the offshore migration of hatchings. Sea turtle hatchings emerge from underground nests and crawl across the beach towards the sea. They ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice%20inversion | Voice inversion scrambling is an analog method of obscuring the content of a transmission. It is sometimes used in public service radio, automobile racing, cordless telephones and the Family Radio Service. Without a descrambler, the transmission makes the speaker "sound like Donald Duck". Despite the term, the techniqu... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levy%E2%80%93Mises%20equations | The Levi–Mises equations (also called flow rules) describe the relationship between stress and strain for an ideal plastic solid where the elastic strains are negligible.
The generalized Levy–Mises equation can be written as:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotropic%20formulations | Isotropic formulations are thermodynamically stable microemulsions possessing lyotropic liquid crystal properties. They inhabit a state of matter and physical behaviour somewhere between conventional liquids and that of solid crystals. Isotropic formulations are amphiphillic, exhibiting selective synchronicity with bot... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masayoshi%20Tomizuka | Masayoshi Tomizuka is a professor in Control Theory in Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of California, Berkeley. He holds the Cheryl and John Neerhout, Jr., Distinguished Professorship Chair. Tomizuka received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in mechanical engineering from Keio University, Tokyo, Japan in 1968... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolf%20Wideroe%20Prize | The Rolf Wideroe Prize is awarded every third year by the Accelerator Group of the European Physical Society (EPS), in memory of Rolf Widerøe, to individuals in recognition of outstanding work in the field of accelerator physics.
The prize was awarded for the first time in 1996, but was only named the Rolf Wideroe Pri... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM%207070 | IBM 7070 is a decimal-architecture intermediate data-processing system that was introduced by IBM in 1958. It was part of the IBM 700/7000 series, and was based on discrete transistors rather than the vacuum tubes of the 1950s. It was the company's first transistorized stored-program computer.
The 7070 was expected to... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack%20Edmonds | Jack R. Edmonds (born April 5, 1934) is an American-born and educated computer scientist and mathematician who lived and worked in Canada for much of his life. He has made fundamental contributions to the fields of combinatorial optimization, polyhedral combinatorics, discrete mathematics and the theory of computing. H... |
