This is clearly evident in the recent price reductions by major companies in the sector. The containment of sale prices is a vital key when setting up a viable and sustainable business venture in the digital cross media content. Possible solutions to this challenge could be found by automating, accelerating and re- structuring production processes, and providing solution to the content protection. Such solutions will en- able the production processes to be faster and cheaper, while at the same time providing new capabilities to support safer distribution. AXMEDIS aims to meet the challenges of market demand by: i. reducing costs for content production and management by applying Artificial Intelligence techniques for content composition, representation (format) and workflow; ii. reducing distribution and aggregation costs in order to increase accessibility with a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) platform at Business-to-Business (B2B) level, which can integrate content management sys- tems and workflows; iii. providing new methods and tools for innovative and flexible Digital Rights Management (DRM),

  • Nongenetic Reactivation and Is Caused by the Action of the Uncoating Protein
    Poxviruses Dr. Ali Hashemi Department of Microbiology, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran Introduction Structure and Composition Poxviruses are the largest and most complex of viruses infecting humans. Poxviruses are large enough to be seen as featureless particles by light microscopy. By electron microscopy, they appear to be brick-shaped or ellipsoid particles. An outer lipoprotein membrane,or envelope, encloses a core and two structures of unknown function called lateral bodies Cont…. The core contains the large viral genome of linear double- stranded DNA. The DNA contains inverted terminal repeats of variable length, and the strands are connected at the ends by terminal hairpin loops. The chemical composition of a poxvirus resembles that of a bacterium. Vaccinia virus is composed predominantly of protein (90%), lipid (5%), and DNA (3%). Classification Poxviruses are divided into two subfamilies based on whether they infect vertebrate or insect hosts. Most of the poxviruses that can cause disease in humans are contained in the genera Orthopoxvirus and Parapoxvirus; there are also several that are classified in the genera Yatapoxvirus and Molluscipoxvirus. Cont… Cont… The orthopoxviruses have a broad host range affecting several vertebrates. They include ectromelia (mousepox), camelpox, cowpox, monkeypox, vaccinia, and variola (smallpox) viruses. Some poxviruses have a restricted host range and infect only rabbits (fibroma and myxoma) or only birds. Others infect mainly sheep and goats (sheeppox, goatpox) or cattle (pseudocowpox, or milker’s nodule). Poxvirus replication Poxviruses are unique among DNA viruses in that the entire multiplication cycle takes place in the cytoplasm of infected cells. Poxviruses are further distinguished from all other animal viruses by the fact that the uncoating step requires a newly synthesized, virus-encoded protein.

  • Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.
