Protein synthesis is one of the most complex cellular processes, involving numerous translation components that interact in multiple sequential steps. The most complex stage in protein synthesis is the initiation process. The basal set of factors required for translation initiation has been determined, and biochemical, genetic, and structural studies are now beginning to reveal details of their...

a procedure is presented that synthesizes fractional crystallization separation processes to obtain pure solids from multi-component solutions. the method includes a procedure to generate a network flow model to identify alternative process designs for fractional crystallization. the main advantage of this systematic procedure with respect to other reported procedures is using non-equilibrium s...

The development of a 'click, click, cy-click' process utilizing a double aza-Michael reaction to generate functionalized 1,2,5-thiadiazepane 1,1-dioxides is reported. Optimization in flow, followed by scale out of the inter-/intramolecular double aza-Michael addition has also been realized using a microwave-assisted, continuous flow organic synthesis platform (MACOS). In addition, a facile one-...

This paper describes a chiral Brønsted acid catalyzed asymmetric 1,2-rearrangement of racemic epoxides via a hydrogen-shift process for the synthesis of chiral aldehydes, and, followed by a reduction, a variety of optically active alcohols can be furnished in moderate yields with up to 50% ee. Especially, a facile one-pot synthesis of chiral alcohols directly from simple alkenes by a sequential...

Present industrial applications require that logic synthesis should be scalable, which means that the algorithms used should have essentially linear complexity in circuit size. For this, we propose sequential rewriting and mapping with sequential choices. Sequential rewriting includes combinational rewriting and inherits its low computational complexity. During sequential rewriting, a history A...

This report is a case-study of the synergy between sequential synthesis and verification. Described is an efficient implementation of a sequential synthesis that uses simple induction to detect and merge sequentially-equivalent registers and nodes in a sequential circuit with a given initial state. Since retiming is not performed, state-encoding, scan chains, and test vectors are essentially pr...

Process synthesis often involves the solution of large nonlinear discretecontinuous optimization problems, which are usually formulated as mixedinteger nonlinear programming (MINLP) or generalized disjunctive programming (GDP) problems and solved with MINLP solvers. This paper presents an efficient solution method for these problems named successive relaxed MINLP (SR-MINLP), where the model for...
