Nano and Giga [Front]
NANO & GIGA CHALLENGES 2007 12-16 MARCH TEMPE, AZ ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY NANO & GIGA CHALLENGES 2007 will provide a forum for academics, students, industrial researches, investors and business development professionals from around the world to discuss cutting-edge nanotechnology as it relates to advanced silicon based micro- and optoelectronics. CMOS technology has sustained exponential progress (Moore's Law) for four decades. However, scientists and engineers agree that this progress will run into what is called the red brick wall of technical and economic limitations some time during the next decade. The use of nanotechnology is vital to the development of future electronics and photonics.

Darwin Skeptics a Select List of Science Academics, Scientists, and Scholars Who Are Skeptical of Darwinism
7/23/2016 Darwin Skeptics A Select List of Science Academics, Scientists, and Scholars Who are Skeptical of Darwinism Compiled by Jerry Bergman PhD. It is commonly claimed that no scientist rejects macroevolution or Darwinism (by which is meant evolutionary naturalism, or the view that variation caused by mutations plus natural selection accounts for all life forms). For example, Dr. Steve Jones, Professor of Genetics at University College of London, wrote that “no scientist denies the central truth of The Origin, the idea of descent with modification... plants, animals and everything else descended from a common ancestor” (Jones, 2000, pp. xvii, xxiii). Other writers avoid the words “all” or “no scientist” and claim instead that “almost no scientist” rejects Darwinism as defined above. In an article refuting “wiccan creationism,” the author claimed that evolutionary theory has been confirmed to such a high degree and has such great explanatory power that it is the central organizing principle of the biological sciences today. Modern biology is basically unthinkable outside of the context of evolution and that is why it is accepted without reservations by pretty much every working scientists [sic] in the life sciences. It also isn’t really questioned in the other natural sciences, either, like physics or chemistry. The author then makes the following absolutist statement: Evolution is taken as a fact—and while there might be disagreements about some of the details of how evolution proceeds, there are no disagreements about the idea that it does occur and that it is the explanation for the diversity of life on our planet. -
Application of Link Integrity Techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web
UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science Department of Electronics and Computer Science A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD Supervisor: Prof. Wendy Hall and Dr Les Carr Examiner: Dr Nick Gibbins Application of Link Integrity techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web by Rob Vesse February 10, 2011 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD by Rob Vesse As the Web of Linked Data expands it will become increasingly important to preserve data and links such that the data remains available and usable. In this work I present a method for locating linked data to preserve which functions even when the URI the user wishes to preserve does not resolve (i.e. is broken/not RDF) and an application for monitoring and preserving the data. This work is based upon the principle of adapting ideas from hypermedia link integrity in order to apply them to the Semantic Web.

D. Grundy This thesis presents experimental analysis of polariton dynamics in semiconductor mi- crocavities. A microcavity is a monolithic structure composed of two distributed Bragg reflectors which are separated by a layer of active material. Strong coupling between excitons residing in the active layer and photons confined within the cavity leads to new eigenstates of the system, called microcavity exciton-polaritons. -

Gates Cambridge Trust Gates Cambridge Scholars 2008 2 Gates Cambridge Scholarship Year Book | 2008 Gates Cambridge Scholars 2008 Scholars are listed alphabetically by name within their year-group. The list includes current Scholars, although a few will start their course in January or April 2009 or later. Several students listed here may be spending all or part of the academic year 2008-09 working away from Cambridge whilst undertaking field-work or other study as an integral part of their doctoral research. The list also retains some Scholars who will complete their PhD thesis and will be leaving Cambridge before the end of the academic year. Some Scholars shown as working for a PhD degree will be required to complete successfully in 2009 a post-graduate certificate or Master’s degree, or similar qualification, before being allowed by the University to proceed with doctoral studies. A full list of the 290 Gates Scholars in residence during 2008–09 appears indexed by name on the last two pages of this yearbook. An alphabetical list of the 534 Gates Scholars who have, as of October 2008, completed the tenure of their scholarships appears on pages 92–100.
