This article uses database and bio-physics considerations to suggest how the mind stores and processes its data. Its principal innovations lie in:-The comparison between the capabilities of the mind to those of a modern relational database while conserving phenomenality. The strong structural similarity of the two systems leads to the conclusion that the mind may be profitably described as bein...

Document search is generally based on individual terms in the document. However, for collections within limited domains it is possible to provide more powerful access tools. This paper describes a system designed for collections of reports of infectious disease outbreaks. The system, Proteus-BIO, automatically creates a table of outbreaks, with each table entry linked to the document describing...

As databases become more pervasive through the biological sciences, various data quality concerns are emerging. Biological databases tend to develop data quality issues regarding data legacy, data uniformity and data duplication. Due to the nature of this data, each of these problems is non-trivial and can cause many problems for the database. For biological data to be corrected and standardise...

there was a turning point in each period of time which human has discovered a new sight about the world and nature order in a way, and then has presented this relation by numeral, artful and industrial language. biourbanism focuses on the urban organism, considering it as a hyper complex system, according to its internal and external dynamics and their mutual interactions. nowadays when it is t...

It is believed that there is a close correlation between the physical and mental activities of human body. These physical activities can be measured using various multimodal bio-signals employing either invasive or non-invasive sensors. In contrast, although mental activities have been modeled from various standpoints, they have been associated mostly with brain activities. We have focused on m...

Large-scale protein interaction maps are, with gene expression profiles, among the first examples of data sets generated without specific knowledge on functions of genes. These are technology-driven experiments rather than hypothesis-driven experiments. They are valuable tools for protein function prediction, despite the occurrence of typical artifacts. These approaches are still in their early...
