Two distinct alcohol dehydrogenase classes mediate bacterial 2‐hydroxyethylphosphonate catabolism
Abstract Phosphonates are molecules containing a direct carbon‐phosphorus bond. In nature, these compounds are produced by a variety of organisms, and many environmental microbes are able to degrade specific phosphonates and feed on them. This work focuses on 2‐hydroxyethylphosphonate (HEP)—a natural compound that is found frequently in the environment,

Evaluating the Energy Efficiency of Optimization Techniques in C, Python, and Java
ABSTRACT Background Software plays a critical role in modern society, but its energy consumption is a growing concern. This issue is especially evident in the Internet of Things (IoT), which involves billions of devices operating under strict energy constraints, most of which rely on C Programming Language (PL) because of its energy efficiency. Outside

Automated generative process synthesis via transformer‐based dual‐loop simulation and optimization
Abstract This study presents a novel framework for automated generative process synthesis, addressing the complexity of simultaneously optimizing discrete topologies and continuous operating variables. To overcome conventional superstructure limitations, we propose a dual‐loop architecture integrating generative transformers with rigorous process ...
