(Nanowerk Spotlight) Logic gates, especially Boolean logic gates, are the fundamental building blocks of today's computers built with silicon-based circuitry; without them, digital information could ...

Controlling gene activity is important for engineering plants for improved bioenergy crops and other applications. This research developed synthetic genes that use Boolean logic gates to achieve ...

Studia Logica: An International Journal for Symbolic Logic, Vol. 49, No. 2 (1990), pp. 197-214 (18 pages) We illustrate, with three examples, the interaction between boolean and modal connectives by ...

A Boolean Algebra operation can be related with an electronic circuit in which the inputs and outputs corresponds to the statements of Boolean algebra. Though these circuits may be complicated, they ...

There are two main reasons mathematics has fascinated humanity for two thousand years. First, math gives us the tools we need to understand the universe and build things. Second, the study of ...

Scientists have developed lots of techniques for targeted drug delivery—directly to tumors, for example—to optimize therapeutic efficacy while minimizing side effects. But a new system may be the most ...
