Evolutionary Genetics: Reuse, Recycle, Converge

Evolutionary Genetics: Reuse, Recycle, Converge

Our understanding of how genetic changes underlie the evolution of traits is growing fast. Two new studies now show that changes in the same genetic loci can drive the evolution of the same trait in multiple Drosophila species.

Reuse, Recycle to De-bloat Software

Most Java programmers would agree that Java is a language that promotes a philosophy of “create and go forth”. By design, temporary objects are meant to be created on the heap, possibly used and then abandoned to be collected by the garbage collector. Excessive generation of temporary objects is termed “object churn” and is a form of software bloat that often leads to performance and memory pro...

Industrial Wastewater, Recycle and Reuse, Using Hybrid Process

Industrial wastewater contains a lot of pollutants and therefore needs special treatment processes. The treatment process may contain mechanical, biological, chemical, physical and physiochemical such as Coagulation – Flocculation process. The goal of this experimental work was to investigate the effects of coagulationflocculation and dissolved air flotation as a hybrid process of industrial wa...
