Convergence of Digital Libraries, Museums and Archives to Collective Memories

This paper describes the effects and resulting information technology support requirements created by the increasing convergence of Digital Libraries, Archives, and Museums towards Collective Memories. It provides an introduction into Collective Memory (CM) / Knowledge Management (KM) models as well as into human computer interaction support for such models based on mechanisms of interactive in...

Abscisic acid regulates numerous developmental processes and adaptive stress responses in plants. Many ABA signaling components have been identified, but their interconnections and a consensus on the structure of the ABA signaling network have eluded researchers. Recently, several advances have led to both the identification of ABA receptors and an understanding of how key regulatory phosphatas...

Real-time surgical simulation requires computationally-fast models describing the interaction between surgical instrument and tissues. In this study, a model for predicting the temperature distribution in brain tissue when using a bipolar electrocautery is proposed and validated against experimental in vitro animal data. Joule heat generation and heat conduction in the tissue are considered. Th...
