چکیده

In this paper, we apply morphogenetic processes, namely selfassembly processes, to compute automatically various abstract spaces that can be used to represent and analyze several wellknown musical objects (sequence of chords, interval series, etc.). These constructions have been implemented in MGS, an unconventional programming language belonging to the family of spatial computing languages.

Algorithmic Self-assembly by Accretion and by Carving in MGS

We report the use of MGS, a declarative and rule-based language, for the modeling of various self-assembly processes. The approach is illustrated on the fabrication of a fractal pattern, a Sierpinsky triangle, using two approaches: by accretive growth and by carving. The notion of topological collections available in MGS enables the easy and concise modeling of Wang tiles on various lattice geo...

Building Topological Spaces for Musical Objects

The development of spatial representations of musical objects allows for a reformulation of algorithmic problems arising in musical theory, fosters novel classifications and provides new computational tools. In this paper, we show how a topological representation for n-note chords associated with the degrees of the diatonic scale and for the AllInterval Series (AIS) can be automatically built u...

Diamondoids and DNA Nanotechnologies

Diamondoids are cage-like saturated hydrocarbons consisting of fused cyclohexane rings. The Diamondoids family of compounds is one of the best candidates for molecular building blocks (MBBs) in nanotechnology to construct organic nanostructures compared to other MBBs known so far. The challenge is to find a route for self-assembly of these cage hydrocarbons and their applications in the bottom-...

Study of Cis–trans Isomerization Mechanism of [3-(3-Aminomethyl) Phenylazo] Phenyl Acetic Acid as a Causative Role in Alzheimer Using Density Functional Theory

Amyloid-β (Aβ) self-assembly into cross-β amyloidfibrils is implicated in a causative role in Alzheimer’s disease pathology.Uncertainties persist regarding the mechanisms of amyloid self assembly and the role of metastable prefibrillar aggregates. Aβ fibrilsfeature a sheet-turn-sheet motif in the constituent β-strands; as such, turn nucleation has been proposed as a rate-limiting step in the se...
