PITTSBURGH (September 2, 2016) ... The potential to develop "materials that compute" has taken another leap at the University of Pittsburgh's Swanson School of Engineering, where researchers for the first time have demonstrated that the material can be designed to recognize simple patterns. This responsive, hybrid material, powered by its own chemical reactions, could one day be integrated into clothing and used to monitor the human body, or developed as a skin for "squishy" robots.

Scientists have built a new sensor that can detect the potentially deadly E.coli bacteria in 15-20 minutes, much faster than traditional lab tests. E.coli can be transmitted in contaminated food and water, posing particular risks to children and the elderly. In the late spring of 2011 a serious outbreak of E.coli bacteria sickened thousands of people in Germany and killed more than 50.

DNA, our genetic material, normally has the structure of a twisted rope ladder. Experts call this structure a double helix. Among other things, it is stabilized by stacking forces between base pairs. Scientists at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have succeeded at measuring these forces for the very first time on the level of single base pairs. This new knowledge could help to construct precise molecular machines out of DNA.

Most basic physics textbooks describe laser light in fairly simple terms: a beam travels directly from one point to another and, unless it strikes a mirror or other reflective surface, will continue traveling along an arrow-straight path, gradually expanding in size due to the wave nature of light. But these basic rules go out the window with high-intensity laser light.

International Union for Conservation for Nature, WWF and International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) examines the results of the work of an IUCN-led independent panel of scientists, which has been advising Sakhalin Energy - one of the largest companies operating in the area - as part of an innovative loan deal. Over the last 12 years, Sakhalin Energy has made important efforts to limit the impact of its operations on whales and the fragile environment. During this period, the western gray whale population has grown 3-4% annually, from an estimated 115 animals in 2004 to 174 in 2015.

According to a new study by scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego, a large earthquake on one fault can trigger large aftershocks on separate faults within just a few minutes. These findings have important implications for earthquake hazard prone regions like California where ruptures on complex fault systems may cascade and lead to mega-earthquakes.

The University of California Botanical Garden at Berkeley Florilegium. Experience an immersive exhibition of 75 exquisite botanical illustrations featuring the unique flora of the UC Botanical Garden at Berkeley. This juried exhibition includes 31 new works shown alongside entries from our previous Florilegium exhibitions. The works on view display a mastery of technical skill, botanical accuracy and harmonious composition for a show of art that provides an engaging visual story of plants and their unique characteristics. Don’t miss this stunning exhibition of art! A florilegium is a collection of illustrations featuring plants growing in a specific area such as a botanical garden. Centuries before digital or analog photography was commonplace, people relied on detailed botanical illustrations to identify plants and flowers. This years’ participating artists are continuing this rich legacy. Through a range of media, the works on view capture the plant information from root to leaf tip, and more. Viewers enjoy the delicate beauty of each artwork, its subject painstakingly rendered; a testament to the artists’ technical skill and love of plants. The project was conceived by renowned botanical illustrator and instructor, Catherine Watters, and developed with the support of staff and Advisory Board members Laura Sawczuk, Gina Baretta, and Katherine Greenberg. Advisory Board Member and former Director of Collections Chris Carmichael and Curator Holly Forbes developed the list of iconic plants from the collection for inclusion in the project. We invite the public to explore The UCBGFlorilegium—where art, history and science tangibly intersect. The exhibition is hosted this November, 2024.

The Art of Connecting is Rethinking the Risk. Be clear on where you stand with BT Security.

Cloud technology is the first step on the path to IT modernisation for many enterprises. It’s a new way to connect applications — and a whole new way to use IT to grow your business and become more agile.

Your office isn’t just an office any more. It’s a park, a hotel, an airport lounge. In each case, your people need to have the same experience, whatever device they’re using. And you need complete control so you can manage your resources on the fly.

In the real-time economy, the demand for cloud services keeps growing with the hybrid cloud as the optimal architecture for handling the inevitable complexity of the agile company’s IT infrastructure.

While major absorption has been recorded in hyperscalers across major cities, colocation services followed closely witnessing significant growth. This shift, as per Savills, can be attributed to factors such as high capital expenditure and operating expense.

Geothermal power is a renewable energy source that uses the Earth's internal heat to produce electricity and heat water. One-hundred and fifty megawatts is roughly enough electricity to power 38,000 homes.

Singapore-based data centre operator Princeton Digital Group (PDG) on Thursday announced to invest $1 billion in India and expand capacity to a total of 230 MW in the country.

AI models consume a lot of electricity, and the World Economic Forum estimated in April that the computer power dedicated to AI is doubling every 100 days.

One of the options is to allow these data centre parks to set up separate power grids, which will allow them to buy power from the power producer or some other power-surplus state instead of the state the infrastructure is domiciled in, another official said.

The biggest gaps lie in technology readiness, with only 9 per cent of companies possessing the necessary AI capabilities like machine learning frameworks, prebuilt algorithms, and dynamic compute.
