One of the fundamental questions in combustion simulation is how to account for detailed chemistry effects, while controlling both the error of the chemical scheme and the computational cost. Combustion chemistry is ...

Fusion plasmas are complex systems with several physical parameters which need continuous control and adjustment. Most plasma diagnostics have limitations of applications regarding the spatial, temporal resolution with ...

Nuclear fusion takes place when two light nuclei combine to make a heavier nucleus, releasing energy in the process. Magnetic confinement fusion attempts to achieve fusion and use this energy by confining the fuel in ...

Phenotypic diversity in human populations is a direct consequence of genetic variation, which acts in conjunction with environmental and behavioral factors to produce phenotypic variation, from eye color and height to ...

The forecast quality of five seasonal prediction strategies used to obtain tailored bioclimatic indicators in the olive sector has been assessed over the Iberian Peninsula (IP). In total, five indicators have been ...

The last century saw an exponential increase in scientific publications in the biomedical domain. Despite the potential value of this knowledge; most of this data is only available as unstructured textual literature, which ...

Antibodies are specialized proteins produced by our adaptive immune system to identify and neutralize specific molecules (antigens) of foreign objects, such as pathogenic microorganisms or infected cells. Due to their ...

The main objective of the PhD proposal consists of the creation of a platform for IVD Models & Simulations (M&S) tools and their integration into automated workflows, within the HORIZON MSCA Disc4All project. Based on the ...

Tropospheric ozone (O3) exerts strong adverse impacts on human health, climate, vegetation, biodiversity, agricultural crop yields and thus food security. O3 is formed in the atmosphere through non-linear photochemical ...

Agent-based models (ABM) have been increasingly employed to study dynamics of biological systems. However, these mostly lack transport mechanisms that interface between the agents and their microenvironment. We considered ...

Survival after lung transplantation is limited in large part due to the high incidence of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD). Infection is a recognized risk factor for the development of CLAD, and both acute infection ...

Tropospheric ozone (O3) is one of the pollutants which raises great concern to the World Health Organization (WHO) because of the health effects associated with its exposure. It is formed in the atmosphere through non-linear ...

Computational tools are increasingly becoming constitutive parts of scientific research, from experimentation and data collection to the dissemination and storage of results. Unfortunately, however, research software is ...

In the current times, many processes in industry are switching from using chemical compounds, requiring extreme conditions, to enzymatic technology, which is a more sustainable and greener alternative [1]. In the paper ...

Sparse Matrix-Vector multiplication (SpMV), computing y = Ax where y and x are dense vectors and A is a sparse matrix, is a key kernel in many HPC applications. SpMV exhibits a kind of memory access that is extremely hard ...

Executing queries over Linked Open Data (LOD) is a complex task. The total number of sources triggered by a single query cannot be known in advance, nor the reasoning complexity applied to each source. In order to avoid ...

The early stages of drug design rely on hit discovery programs, where initial possible inhibitors’ binding affinities are assessed when bound to their biological target. It is an expensive and time-consuming process, ...

Many diseases strongly impact the human transcriptome at the gene expression level [1]. However, previous work has focused on accessible tissues [2], and has not incorporated the effect of demographic traits, known risk ...

Reduction of the emission of pollutants is one of the main concerns in the study of combustion today. Thermal NOx for example, is generated when high temperatures are achieved in the combustion process. The use of Lean ...

With recent Quantum Devices showing increasing capabilities to perform controlled operations, further development on Quantum Algorithms may benefit from Quantum Simulations on classical hardware. Among important applications ...

Advances in medicine (such as chemotherapy or transplants) have extended the life expectancy of patients at the cost of impairing their immune system. This has generated an increasing population of patients highly susceptible ...

Machine learning (ML) has become an essential tool for humans to get rational predictions in different aspects of their lives. Hyperparameter algorithms are a tool for creating better ML models. The hyperparameter algorithms ...
