High-throughput method characterizes hundreds of previously unknown antibiotic resistance mutations by Matthew J. Jago, Jake K. Soley, Stepan Denisov, Calum J. Walsh, Danna R. Gifford, Benjamin P. Howden, Mato Lagator

“…We present a high-throughput technique – Quantitative Mutational Scan sequencing (QMS-seq) – that enables quantitative comparison of which genes are under antibiotic selection and captures how genetic background influences resistance evolution. We compare four E. coli strains exposed to ciprofloxacin, cycloserine, or nitrofurantoin and identify 812 resistance mutations, many in genes and regulatory regions not previously associated with resistance. …”

New multicast technology (BIER) and prototype system by Jinghai YU, Zheng ZHANG, Shaofu PENG

“…The principle and advantages of BIER were introduced,and it was compared with traditional multicast technology.It was pointed out that BIER technology was an important choice for future network evolution.At the same time,through the introduction of the prototype system,the feasibility of the BIER and the evolution capability were analyzed in detail.It was predicted that BIER technology was an inevitable choice of controllable multicast under the trend of SDN evolution.…”

Trichotomy for Dynamical Systems in Banach Spaces by Codruţa Stoica

“…We construct a framework for the study of dynamical systems that describe phenomena from physics and engineering in infinite dimensions and whose state evolution is set out by skew-evolution semiflows. Therefore, we introduce the concept of ω-trichotomy. …”

Towards which Representation? by Roberto de Rubertis

“…The first question we ask ourselves, coherently with what is requested of us, is, in fact, how we stand today in the context of an evolution that has important repercussions even on teaching –if there has actually been an evolution– and how we relate to its undeniable metamorphoses or, more properly, “mutations” as Darwin would call them. …”
