Being a Solo EBLIP Practitioner

SOLO: A Cognitive Orthosis

Solo is a cognitive assistive device which provides support in remembering when to perform tasks, executing the steps in a task, and recovering from unexpected events. The system includes an interface for clients to receive reminders, an interface for caregivers to enter information about the client’s scheduled tasks, and a Cognition Manager which provides reminders and task guidance at appropr...

Solo polarization

eterochromatin’s repressive hold on DNA transcription can only be relinquished when activators enter the nucleus. Or so the theory goes. But now Vanessa Witte, Andreas Baur (University of Erlangen, Germany), and colleagues find that a heterochromatin component can be pulled from the nucleus by both the HIV protein Nef and activated integrins. “This is a really new concept—that chromatin-associa...

Solo Diagrams

We address the problems of implementing the replication operator efficiently in the solos calculus—a calculus of mobile processes without prefix. This calculus is expressive enough to admit an encoding of the whole fusion calculus and thus the π-calculus. We show that nested occurrences of replication can be avoided, that the size of replicated terms can be limited to three particles, and that ...

A SOLO performance in meiotic cohesion

EGF takes dual control of mRNA E GF coordinates the nuclear and cy t o p l a s m i c activities of an RNA-binding protein to ensure a specifi c mRNA is translated at the right time and place in neu-rons, say Tsai et al. mRNAs localize to specifi c regions within neurons, where they can be translated to quickly generate large amounts of a protein in the place where it is needed. Due to the large...
