Nos últimos anos, uma nova ciência vem se destacando entre as áreas de conhecimento científico: a astrobiologia, um campo multidisciplinar derivado da astronomia e que ainda é raramente abordado em livros didáticos ou até mesmo na sala aula. O presente artigo descreve experiência pedagógica com alunos disciplina eletiva, dentro parte diversificada do currículo ensino médio/técnico Escola Cidadã...

We present both the observations and the data reduction procedures of the Subaru COSMOS 20 project that is an optical imaging survey of the HST COSMOS field, carried out by using Suprime-Cam on the Subaru Telescope with the following 20 optical filters: 6 broad-band (B, g, V , r, i, and z), 2 narrow-band (NB711 and NB816), and 12 intermediate-band filters (IA427, IA464, IA484, IA505, IA527, IA5...

Understanding the pathway and kinetic mechanisms of transcription initiation is essential for quantitative understanding of gene regulation, but initiation is a multistep process, the features of which can be obscured in bulk analysis. We used a multiwavelength single-molecule fluorescence colocalization approach, CoSMoS, to define the initiation pathway at an activator-dependent bacterial σ(54...

The Co-design is the process of generating a mixed hardware/software architecture starting from system-level model. This paper discusses the uses of SDL for the co-design of an ATM Network Interface Card (NIC). In this study, the initial specification is given in SDL. The architecture generation is made using Cosmos, a co-design tool for multiprocessor architecture. Several architectures are pr...

For over twenty years, the term ‘cosmic web’ has guided our understanding of the large-scale arrangement of matter in the cosmos, accurately evoking the concept of a network of galaxies linked by filaments. But the physical correspondence between the cosmic web and structural-engineering or textile ‘spiderwebs’ is even deeper than previously known, and extends to origami tessellations as well. ...

Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVE) are providing a powerful mechanism to companies, for training staff and customers in their products, improving their productivity, as well as reducing the cost of product development at the same time. Enhanced with their integration with media streams like audio and video, they can become the main way of collaboration among co-workers. But, the realizati...
