The Molecular Workbench Software: An Innova- tive Dynamic Modeling Tool for Nanoscience Education
نویسندگان
چکیده
Nanoscience and nanotechnology are critically important in the 21 century (National Research Council, 2006; National Science and Technology Council, 2007). This is the field in which major sciences are joining, blending, and integrating (Battelle Memorial Institute & Foresight Nanotech Institute, 2007; Goodsell, 2004). The prospect of nanoscience and nanotechnology in tomorrow’s science and technology has called for transformative changes in science curricula in today’s secondary education (Chang, 2006; Sweeney & Seal, 2008).

The ASM Workbench: an Open and Extensible Tool Environment for Abstract State Machines
Appropriate tool support is an essential factor for an eeec-tive application of formal methods to real-life speciication and modelling tasks. However, the current state of the art of tool support for Abstract State Machines is not considered very satisfactory by practitioners. After discussing some possible reasons for this, we report about the ASM Workbench, an open and extensible tool environ...
متن کاملNavigating the Fifth Dimension : Innova - tive Interface for Multidimensional Multimodality Image Navigation 1
The display and interpretation of images obtained by combining three-dimensional data acquired with two different modalities (eg, positron emission tomography and computed tomography) in the same subject require complex software tools that allow the user to adjust the image parameters. With the current fast imaging systems, it is possible to acquire dynamic images of the beating heart, which ad...
