چکیده

The beginning of post-genomic era is characterized by a rising numbers of public collected genomes. The evolutionary relationship among these genomes may be caught by means of the comparative analysis of sequences, in order to identify both homologous and non-coding functional elements. In this paper we report on the on-going BIOBITS project. It is focused on studies concerning the bacterial endosymbionts, since they offer an excellent model to investigate important biological events, such as organelle evolution, genome reduction, and transfer of genetic information among host lineages. The BIOBITS goal is two-side: on the one hand, it pursues a logical data representation of genomic and proteomic components. On the other hand, it aims at the development of software modules allowing the user to retrieve and analyze data in a

Hydroponics Roofs for Saving Energy of Green Schools in the Cold and Dry climate of Iran: A Comparative Study between Two Broad and Modular Hydroponic Green Roofs

Green schools are a new type of school, in which the use of renewable energy is less than that of conventional schools. In this regard, nowadays, adding green layers to the roof of schools, in addition to increasing the Students' communication with nature, energy saving has improved in these spaces. However, to improve energy saving yield, the priority of these types of roofs in different clima...

Modular approach for an ASIC integration of electrical drive controls

VLSI circuits design allows today to consider new modes of implementation for electrical controls. However, design techniques require an adaptation effort that few designers, too accustomed to the software approach, provide. The authors of this article propose to develop a methodology to guide the electrical designers towards optimal performances of control algorithms implementation. Thus, they...
