Turning — Score Automation for Musicians Honours
This report examines various aspects of the use of computers for the purpose of displaying sheet music for musicians. The main focus is on the layout of the displayed music and methods that can be used to simulate physical page turning to provide new information for the musician. The techniques that may be used to update the field of view depend on factors such as the amount of information to b...
متن کاملNobel Committee Tags Ubiquitin for Distinction
It must be very difficult to serve on the committee to select Nobel Prize winners—to have to select one or two scientific advances amidst many outstanding discoveries, to have to choose the two or three key investigators (who may not be the most visible or most cited ones), and to have to sift through many nominations that extol the achievements of some candidates (but overlook those of others)...
متن کاملFullerenes as polyradicals
Electronic structure of X60 molecules (X=C, Si) is considered in terms of 60 odd electrons and spin-dependent interaction between them. Conditions for the electrons to be excluded from the covalent pairing are discussed. A computational spin-polarized quantumchemical scheme is suggested to evaluate four parameters (energy of radicalization, exchange integral, atom spin density, and squared spin...
متن کاملFullerenes as Tilings of Surfaces
If a fullerene is defined as a finite trivalent graph made up solely of pentagons and hexagons, embedding in only four surfaces is possible: the sphere, torus, Klein bottle, and projective (elliptic) plane. The usual spherical fullerenes have 12 pentagons; elliptic fullerenes, 6; and toroidal and Klein-bottle fullerenes, none. Klein-bottle and elliptic fullerenes are the antipodal quotients of ...
متن کاملFullerenes as Agents for Chemotherapeutic Drug Delivery
In a world where the scale of technology is continuously shrinking, from phones to cars to solar panels, nanotechnology is seeing a rise in applications. Recently, increased use of nanotechnology in the medical industry brought fullerenes, sometimes referred to as Buckyballs, to the forefront. Fullerenes are currently being developed by engineers to encapsulate a chemotherapeutic drug and deliv...
