Computing in Science & Engineering, 2021 As cloud computing grows, the types of computational hardware available in the cloud are diversifying. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are a relatively new addition to high-performance computing in the cloud, with the ability to accelerate a range of different applications, and the flexibility to offer different cloud computing models.

Schistosomiasis transmission at high altitude crater lakes in Western Uganda
BMC Infectious Diseases, 2008 Background Contrary to previous reports which indicated no transmission of schistosomiasis at altitude >1,400 m above sea level in Uganda, in this study it has been established that schistosomiasis transmission can take place at an altitude range of 1487–

The HD(CP)2 Data Archive for Atmospheric Measurement Data
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2016 The archiving of scientific data is a sophisticated mission in nearly all research projects. In this paper, we introduce a new online archive of atmospheric measurement data from the "High definition clouds and precipitation for advancing climate ...

Visual Studies, 2012 This short essay is an introduction to The Cloud, an unrealized architectural proposal for an observation deck as a monument to the London 2012 Olympics. The Cloud would allow visitors to immerse themselves in weather, and the city to connect with digital data; it proposes an innovative solution for energy harvesting and a bottom-up financing model ...

Retrieving Cloud Sensitivity to Aerosol Using Ship Emissions in Overcast Conditions
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The interaction between aerosols and clouds is one of the major uncertainties in past climate change, affecting the accuracy of future climate projections. Ship tracks, trails left in clouds through the addition of aerosol in the ship exhaust plume, have
