Twenty Years of Girls into Computing Days: Has It Been Worth the Effort?
The first documented day-long program to encourage girls to consider computing as a career was held in 1987 in the U.K. Over the last 20 years these one-day events, labeled Girls into Computing days, have been conducted by academics and professionals to foster female-student interest in information technology (IT) degrees and careers. This paper charts the growth and popularity of these types o...
متن کاملTolerance--is it worth it?
We are entering an exciting time in the study of immunologic tolerance. Several cellular and molecular strategies have been developed that show promise in nonhuman transplant models and these approaches are just now appearing in clinical trials. Tolerance strategies that prevent immune rejection and obviate the need for immunosuppressive medications (with inherent risk of cancer, infection, and...
متن کاملMPI in 2002: Has it Been Ten Years Already?
In April of 1992, a group of parallel computing vendors, computer science researchers, and application scientists met at a one-day workshop and agreed to cooperate on the development of a community standard for the message-passing model of parallel computing. The MPI Forum that eventually emerged from that workshop became a model of how a broad community could work together to improve an import...
متن کاملChlorthalidone: has it always been the best thiazide-type diuretic?
Modern diuretic therapy evolved from 2 seemingly unrelated events in the 1930s: the development of sulfanilamide, the first truly effective antibacterial agent, and the description of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase. Sulfanilamide was observed to increase sodium (Na )/potassium and water excretion by inhibition of carbonic anhydrase activity. Recognition of this action proved the impetus for synt...
متن کاملIt has been conjectured that self-replicating systems will enab
It has been conjectured that self-replicating systems will enable complex macroscale objects to be made in a reasonable time using nanoscale assembly processes [1]. Self-replicating systems might also be used within reconfigurable structures on any scale, such as micro-circuits. An abstract model of a programmable constructor in a kinematic simulation environment is presented. This programmable...
