چکیده
Conclusions y the mid-1990s, jim gray had recognized that the next " big data " challenges for database technology would come from science and not from commerce. He also identified the technical challenges that such data-intensive science would pose for scientists and the key role that IT and computer science could play in enabling future scientific discoveries. The term " eScience " was coined in the year 2000 by John Taylor, when he was director general of the UK Research Councils. Taylor had recognized the increasingly important role that IT must play in the collaborative, multidisciplinary, and data-intensive scientific research of the 21st century and used the term eScience to encompass the collection of tools and technologies needed to support such research. In recognition of the UK eScience initiative, Jim Gray called his research group at Microsoft Research the eScience Group, and he set about working with scientists to understand their problems and learn what tools they needed. Jim expanded on his vision of data-intensive science and enumerated seven key areas for action by the funding agencies: 1. Foster both the development of software tools and support for these tools. 2. Invest in tools at all levels of the funding pyramid. 3. Foster the development of generic Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS). 4. Foster research into scientific data management, data analysis, data visualiza-tion, and new algorithms and tools.

Next Steps for Elevating Health on Trade and Investment Policy Agendas; Comment on “How Neoliberalism Is Shaping the Supply of Unhealthy Commodities and What This Means for NCD Prevention”
Despite intergovernmental calls for greater policy coherence to tackle rising non-communicable diseases (NCDs), there has been a striking lack of coherence internationally and nationally between trade and health sectors. In this commentary, I explore the arguments by Lenucha and Thow in relation to barriers for greater coherence for NCDs, apply them to regional trade ag...
متن کاملSediment Transport in Unsteady Flow Conditions
Sediment transport under unsteady flow condition is studied experimentally. In the first step, sediment transport under different steady flow conditions was measured and an empirical equation was derived for its calculation. In the next step, two continuous and three stepwise hydrographs were generated in the flume, and their sediment transport rate was measured. The continuous hydrographs were...

متن کاملInfluence of Slope and the Number of Steps on Energy Dissipation in Stepped Spillway Using Numerical Model
Recently the stepped spillways have been used as an appropriate solution for energy dissipation. In the present study, Siahbisheh dam spillway is simulated by using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD), in which the Mixture method and Reynolds Stresses Model (RSM) turbulence model is used. In the first modeling series the over all steppes slope is constant. The number of the steps is increased to ...

متن کاملFour study design principles for genetic investigations using next generation sequencing.
Proper study design is crucial for obtaining meaningful results and reaching correct conclusions in scientific investigations. How to apply key study design principles to next generation sequencing (NGS) can be unclear and is sometimes overlooked by researchers who are new to this technology. A proper study design in NGS studies can be achieved with awareness of factors that can influence seque...
