Solar cookers in developing countries
Ferdinand Kroon In the 70ties deforestation in developing countries was mainly attributed to the use of firewood in domestic energy supply. In many developing countries the majority of the population cooks on firewood. In response, many (Western) organisations developed new technology like improved versions of traditional cook stoves, biogas plants and solar cookers. While in urban areas the co...
متن کاملProposal for New World Standard for Testing Solar Cookers
New protocol to test solar cooker is being proposed. The earlier tests measured only the thermal efficiency. There is an urgent need to look into other important parameters of the cooker such as its stagnation capacity, cost per watts delivered, weight of the cooker, ease of handling and aesthetics. The proposal also aims at standardization of reporting the test results so that it can be easily...
متن کاملDesigning a Better Shopbot
A tool that consumers have for comparative shopping is the shopbot, which is short for shopping robot. These shopbots automatically search a large number of vendors for price and availability. Typically a shopbot searches a predefined set of vendors and reports all results, which can result in time-consuming searches that provide redundant or dominated alternatives. Our research demonstrates an...
متن کاملDesigning better phages
We propose a method to engineer the genome of bacteriophages to increase their effectiveness as antibacterial agents. Specifically, we exploit the redundancy of the triplet code to design genomes that avoid restriction sites while producing the same proteins as wild-type phages. We give an efficient algorithm to minimize the number of restriction sites against sets of cutter sequences, and demo...
