The Atacama Desert is the most arid desert on Earth, focus of important research activities related to microbial biodiversity studies. In this context, metabolic characterization of arid soil bacteria is crucial to understand their survival strategies under extreme environmental stress. We investigated whether strain-specific features of two Microb...

Across human cultures, conversations are regulated by temporal and social rules. The universality of conversational rules suggests possible biological bases and encourages comparisons with the communicative interactions of nonhuman animals. Unexpectedly, few studies have focused on other great apes despite evidence of proto-conversational rules in ...

Single crystal of 1D homometallic coordination polymer involving cobalt metal ion and P2Mo5 Strandberg type polyoxometallate cluster (C6H10N2)2[Co(H2O)4P2Mo5O23].6H2O, is prepared in aqueous solution and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-vis diffuse reflectance, fluorescence and magnetism. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveal...

The transition to agriculture brought major changes to human populations in Europe during the Neolithic period. Here, Cubas and colleagues analyse lipid residues from Neolithic pottery from along the Atlantic coast of Europe to trace the spread of dairy production and shifts in diet.

Shadoo belongs to the prion protein family, an evolutionary conserved and extensively studied family due to the implication of PrP in Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies. However, the biological function of these genes remains poorly understood. While Sprn-knockdown experiments suggested an involvement of Shadoo during mouse embryonic develop...
Most cloud data centers are over-provisioned and underutilized, primarily to handle peak loads and sudden failures. This has motivated many researchers to reclaim the unused resources, which are by nature ephemeral, to run data-intensive applications at a lower cost. Hadoop MapReduce is one of those applications. However, it was designed on the ass...
Stream Processing (SP) is now a major paradigm to timely handle large volumes of data generated at the edge of the Internet. Stream processing engines (SPE) are tools easing the specification, deployment and monitoring of SP applications. Such applications are typically programmed as a directed acyclic graph (DAG) of operators to be applied on each...
la santé environnement, ou santé environnementale, apparaît en 2004 dans des plans nationaux déclinés dans les régions de France. Si les problématiques de santé publique en lien avec les facteurs de risques environnementaux sont de plus en plus perçues et débattues au sein de la société et parmi la communauté scientifique, il reste encore un certai...
To simulate the low-level ('microscopic') behavior of human crowds, a local navigation algorithm computes how a single person ('agent') should move based on its surroundings. Many algorithms for this purpose have been proposed, each using different principles and implementation details that are difficult to compare.This paper presents a novel frame...
