spinal cord injury (sci) in humans remains a devastating and incurable disorder. a very important obstacle in axonal regeneration after spinal cord injury is astroglial scaring. the use of self-assembling peptide nanofiber, a hydrogel mimicking extracellular matrix, has been suggested as a scaffold for spinal cord regeneration and inhibition of astrogliosis. however, neurogenesis potential of l...

Software development by assembling components represents a very promising way for the design of high quality software at lower costs. The assembly is specified by the Architecture Description Languages (ADL). ArchJava is an ADL that is characterized by its independence from the application domain and its close position to the implementation level, thus making it very attractive for practitioner...

Self-assembling tile systems are a model for assembling DNAbased nano artefacts. In the currently known constructions, most of the effort is put on garanteeing the size of the output object, whereas the geometrical efficiency of the assembling of the shape itself is left aside. We propose in this paper a framework to obtain provably time efficient selfassembling tile systems. Our approach consi...
