Computer-designed Molecule To Clean Up Fluorocarbons?
The chemical bond between carbon and fluorine is one of the strongest in nature, but researchers at NIST and Philip Morris's Interdisciplinary Network of Emerging Science and Technology group have used "computational chemistry" to design a molecule to pull the fluorine out of fluorocarbons.ScienceDaily Headlines: Computers & Math, 2007-03-26 04:03:16

Atom 'Noise' May Help Design Quantum Computers
Physicists at NIST have found that images of noise in clouds of ultracold atoms trapped by lasers reveal hidden structural patterns, including spacing between atoms and cloud size.ScienceDaily Headlines: Computers & Math, 2007-03-26 04:03:16

Atomic Clock Signals May Be Best Shared By Fiber-optics
Time and frequency information can be transferred between laboratories or to other users in several ways, often using the Global Positioning System (GPS), but today's best atomic clocks are so accurate that more stable methods are needed. The best solution may be to use lasers to transfer data over fiber-optic cables, according to scientists at JILA.ScienceDaily Headlines: Computers & Math, 2007-03-26 04:03:16

Computer Key Unlocks Heritable Disorders
Danish and Belgian researchers have found a computer key that maps genes underlying heritable disorders, such as breast cancer, multiple sclerosis, and Alzheimer's disease. These results will possibly ease the discovery of new medicines and improve treatment in various disorders.ScienceDaily Headlines: Computers & Math, 2007-03-26 04:03:16

Novel Salamander Robot Crawls Its Way Up The Evolutionary Ladder
A group of European researchers has developed a spinal cord model of the salamander and implemented it in a novel amphibious salamander-like robot. The robot changes its speed and gait in response to simple electrical signals, suggesting that the distributed neural system in the spinal cord holds the key to vertebrates' complex locomotor capabilities.ScienceDaily Headlines: Computers & Math, 2007-03-26 04:03:16

'Virtual Iraq' To Aid Traumatised Military Staff
University of Reading scientists are bringing to life a "virtual Iraq" to aid traumatised soldiers and military staff recover once they return from duty. The virtual Iraq simulation, developed at the University of Southern California (USC) but now being put into practice at Reading, is "fully-immersive" and designed as part of an exposure therapy programme which allows soldiers suffering post-traumatic stress disorder to relive and confront psychological trauma -- and it has produced promising results for the first handful of patients treated.ScienceDaily Headlines: Computers & Math, 2007-03-26 04:03:16

Hackers Get Bum Rap For Corporate America's Digital Delinquency
Three out of five data breaches involving sensitive personal information are attributable to organizational malfeasance, according to a review of compromised records over the past 26 years. A better picture of who is responsible has emerged as a result of recent disclosure laws.ScienceDaily Headlines: Computers & Math, 2007-03-26 04:03:16
