Given its reputation for innovative broadcast communications, it is not surprising that the BBC has adopted a considered approach to e-learning. This case study concentrates on the production of an online course on 'Editorial Policy' and demonstrates their comprehensive approach to e-learning. However those involved in e-learning at the BBC emphasise that they have developed their thinking over...

The chance to influence the lives of a million children comes once in a generation. With the partnership between the BBC and several technology companies, a small device, the BBC micro:bit will be given to a million children in the UK in 2016. Moreover, using the micro:bit will be part of the curriculum. This demo describes the BBC micro:bit together with its software platform, based on Microso...

The development of a new integrated approach to the generation of a novel type of insect neuropeptide (Np) antagonists and putative insect control agents based on backbone cyclic compounds is described. The approach, termed the backbone cyclic neuropeptide-based antagonist (BBC-NBA), was applied to the insect pyrokinin (PK)/pheromone biosynthesis activating neuropeptide (PBAN) family as a model...

The DVB's Portable Content Format (PCF) is a data format for the description of interactive digital television (iTV) services. It is intended to support the businessto-business interchange of interactive content and to enable deployment on multiple target platforms with a minimum amount of re-authoring. This will reduce both the production cost and time to air of iTV services. White Papers are ...

Previous experimental studies to assess the contribution of blood-borne circulating (BBC) cells to cutaneous wound healing have relied on discontinuous pulsing of labeled BBC elements or bone marrow transplant protocols. Such approaches do not permit examination of stable BBC cells that have matured in a physiologically-normal host. We have employed a parabiotic murine model for cutaneous wound...

In large-scale, wireless networks, it is possible to achieve confidentiality and integrity using asymmetric keys, but availability (i.e. resistance to jamming) has always required symmetric keys. Key management for these symmetric keys is becoming increasingly difficult, and in some cases physically impossible. Recently, the first algorithm was proposed to achieve availability without symmetric...

In a sense I write under false pretences because the BBC possesses no special archives devoted to folk music. For the purposes of broadcasting, the BBC began to make recordings a t the end of 1931 and over the las t thirty years has built up a general Sound Archives of some 30,000 accession numbers: recordings mainly selected from its own broadcast programmes, ranging from variety to grand oper...

Abstract As a metal immobilizer, biochar can be used to remediate contaminated soil. Biochar’s effect on the phytoremediation process in flooded conditions under scenario of increasing flooding frequency as global climate change is not well understood. This study investigated bamboo (BBC) effects growth and accumulation Salix multi-metal soil non-flooded versus conditions. cuttings were cultiva...
