Journals on electronic devices and unconventional computing from Old City Publishing.Old City Publishing (Philadelphia, PA) has begun the publication of two new journals including 'International Journal of Unconventional Computing' and 'Journal of Active & Passive Electronic Devices.' Both new titles will be published quarterly. The 'Journal of Active and Passive Electronic Devices' is devoted to the science and technology of all types of electronic components. Editorial covers a range of topics in the field, including electron tubes, transistors, integrated circuits Integrated circuits Miniature electronic circuits produced within and upon a single semiconductor crystal, usually silicon. Integrated circuits range in complexity from simple logic circuits and amplifiers, about 1/20 in. (1. , semi-conductor materials, thick-film materials, resistors, capacitors, solid-state memories, microwave circuits and systems, sensor technology, VLSI technology VLSI Technology, Inc was a company which designed and manufactured custom and semi-custom ICs. The company was based in Silicon Valley, with headquarters at 1109 McKay Drive in San Jose, California. and device processing. An annual subscription costs $90 for individuals and $426 for institutions. 'International Journal of Unconventional Computing' carries research results in 'non-classical' computing, including cellular automata cellular automata (CA) Simplest model of a spatially distributed process that can be used to simulate various real-world processes. Cellular automata were invented in the 1940s by John von Neumann and Stanislaw Ulam at Los Alamos National Laboratory. as models for parallel computing Solving a problem with multiple computers or computers made up of multiple processors. It is an umbrella term for a variety of architectures, including symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), clusters of SMP systems, massively parallel processors (MPPs) and grid computing. , the physics of computation The study of the physics of computation relates to understanding the fundamental physical limits of computers. This field has led to the investigation of how thermodynamics limits information processing, the understanding of chaos and dynamical systems, and a rapidly growing effort , chemical computing, bio-molecular computing, complexity, smart actuators, innovative hardware systems and logical systems. An annual subscription costs $90 for individuals and $426 for institutions. Old City Publishing, was founded in 1995 and provides the international community with the latest research and developments in the sciences, technology, medicine, and the humanities through 12 journals, including 'Lasers in Engineering,' 'Nonlinear Optics,' 'Concepts in Modern Optics' and 'Transgenics,' and a book division. MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC inc - /ink/ increment, i.e. increase by one. Especially used by assembly programmers, as many assembly languages have an "inc" mnemonic. Antonym: dec. . LAUNCHES 'INDUSTRIAL BIOTECNOLOGY' GEN Publishing, Inc., a division of Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. (New Rochelle New Rochelle (rōshĕl`), city (1990 pop. 67,625), Westchester co., SE N.Y., on Long Island Sound; settled by Huguenots 1688, inc. as a village 1858, as a city 1899. , NY) and the publisher of 'Genetic Engineering News' (GEN), has begun the publication of 'Industrial Biotechnology,' a new quarterly journal designed to "herald the emergence of biotechnology as a positive force for environmental sustainability in manufacturing and improved quality of life through consumer goods consumer goods Any tangible commodity purchased by households to satisfy their wants and needs. Consumer goods may be durable or nondurable. Durable goods (e.g., autos, furniture, and appliances) have a significant life span, often defined as three years or more, and and services." An annual print/online subscription costs $169 for individuals and $429 for institutions. An annual print-only subscription costs $149 and $379, respectively. This interdisciplinary, international journal provides a forum for the emerging field of industrial biotechnology The references in this article would be clearer with a different and/or consistent style of citation, footnoting or external linking. Industrial biotechnology (known mainly in Europe as white biotechnology , a field that will deliver new biodegradable products and consumer goods produced with lower costs and environmentally friendly processes. The journal publishes the latest developments on the new tools and applications of biotechnology for industrial applications including food and food processing, anti-bioterrorism, environmental remediation, pulp and paper, plastics and packaging, textiles, detergents, alternative energy sources, and improving the environmental sustainability of manufacturing applications. Editorial includes information on advances in academia, industry, government and institutions with news reports, commentary on new biotech applications and original research and reviews. The premier issue carries articles on such topics as: using genomic applications for energy and the environment; bioethanol; chemical manufacturing; biosensors for detecting pathogens; and, protein production technology, among others. |
