Glucose-Sensitive Holographic (Bio)Sensors: Fundamentals and Applications

Nowadays sensors and especially biosensors play an important role in medical diagnosis and detection of food and environment contaminations. Biosensors’ facilities have been improved significantly by using technologies such as surface plasmon resonance, microfluidics, laser, and electrochemistry. These technologies are now available on chips in micro- and nano-scale and are capable of mea...

Biogas Technology, Applications, Perspectives and Implications

The major purpose of this study was to examine the advantages and implications of biogastechnology in the agriculture sector. Biogas is one of many biomass energy sources, which includeanything that was once alive and that can generate energy (except for fossil fuels, which are notrenewable). To talk of biogas is to talk of agriculture, since biogas generation starts withagricultural waste prod...

CS 252 : HACD Fundamentals of Relational Databases

In parallel with Hugh Darwen, Alexandra Cristea (module organizer) introduces you to the “state of the art” of relational database support in the industry. This takes the form of SQL, the language that was dubbed “intergalactic dataspeak” by database guru Michael Stonebraker in the 1980s (since when its use and its number of implementations have grown enormously). You are strongly encouraged to...
