HIV treatment 2020: what will it look like?

Currently there are 28 approved antiretroviral drugs in six mechanistic classes, and recommended first-line regimens are highly potent, well tolerated, and as convenient as one pill, once-a-day. How will HIV treatment change by 2020? Over the next few years, we are likely to see potent 2-drug regimens tested head-to-head with standard three-drug regimens, and some of these will likely become st...

PANEL: Reconfigurable SoC--What Will It Look Like

The argument against ASIC SoCs is that they have always taken too long and cost too much to design. As new process technologies come on line, the issue of inflexible, unyielding designs fixed in silicon becomes a serious concern. Without the flexibility of reconfigurable logic, will standard cell ASICs disappear and go the way of gate arrays? Will ASIC manufacturers lose their edge in providing...

What ain’t mathematics education?!

Abstract: In 1996 at the first Iranian Mathematics Education Conference (IMEC1) that was held in Isfahan. I obliged myself as a mathematics educator, to inform the mathematics community at large by presenting a paper entitled “what is mathematics education?” to pave the way for the establishment of the master program of mathematics education in Iran. Now, after 16 years, we need to reflect on t...

What will count as mathematics in 2100?

s—patterns either from the world or from a mental discipline (including mathematics itself) and studies them. What makes such a study mathematics, as opposed to some other discipline, is the high degree of abstraction of both the patterns and the way they are studied. Mathematical patterns are the structural skeletons that lie beneath the world. Such is their abstraction that the only tool avai...
