Symbiotic Cell Differentiation and Cooperative Growth in Multicellular Aggregates [PDF]
As cells grow and divide under a given environment, they become crowded and resources are limited, as seen in bacterial biofilms and multicellular aggregates. These cells often show strong interactions through exchanging chemicals, as in quorum sensing, to achieve mutualism.

Ontology-Based Skill Description Learning for Flexible Production Systems [PDF]
The increasing importance of resource-efficient production entails that manufacturing companies have to create a more dynamic production environment, with flexible manufacturing machines and processes. To fully utilize this potential of dynamic manufacturing through automatic production planning, formal skill descriptions of the machines are essential.

A Portable Agricultural Robot for Continuous Apparent Soil ElectricalConductivity Measurements to Improve Irrigation Practices [PDF]
Near-ground sensing data, such as geospatial measurements of soil apparent electrical conductivity (ECa), are used in precision agriculture to improve farming practices and increase crop yield. Near-ground sensors provide valuable information, yet, the process of collecting, assessing, and interpreting measurements requires significant human labor ...

Labor Space: A Unifying Representation of the Labor Market via Large Language Models [PDF]
The labor market is a complex ecosystem comprising diverse, interconnected entities, such as industries, occupations, skills, and firms. Due to the lack of a systematic method to map these heterogeneous entities together, each entity has been analyzed in isolation or only through pairwise relationships, inhibiting comprehensive understanding of the ...
