Efficient and accurate gene expression requires the coordination of multiple steps along the pathway of mRNA and protein synthesis. Now, Harel-Sharvit et al. (2010) show that transcriptional imprinting of mRNAs with two subunits of RNA polymerase II, Rbp4p and Rpb7p, guides transcripts to the translation apparatus.

—Objectives of technical courses are knowledge and know-how transfer to students. In the case of Discrete Events Systems courses, it is important for learner to control locally or remotely real systems (or plants) composed of many sensors and actuators. The use of these devices poses several problems. Firstly, it is difficult to adapt them to the student's level (from beginner to expert). Secon...

We have designed, implemented, and deployed a camera control system and a conference controller that provide remote control capabilities for videoconferencing over the Internet. The camera control system allows users to pan, tilt, and zoom the cameras, switch between cameras, and get a picture-in-picture view from their desktops. The conference controller allows conference participants to not o...

With the evolution of mobile devices, and smart-phones in particular, comes the ability to create new experiences that enhance the way we see, interact, and manipulate objects, within the world that surrounds us. It is now possible to blend data from our senses and our devices in numerous ways that simply were not possible before using Augmented Reality technology. In a near future, when all of...

In online context, the design and implementation of effective remote laboratories environment is highly challenging on account of hardware and software needs. This paper presents the remote laboratory software framework modified from ilab shared architecture (ISA). The ISA is a framework which enables students to remotely acccess and control experimental hardware using internet infrastructure. ...
