Dans cet exposé Michel Habib nous explique comment fonctionne google, quels sont les mécanismes algorithmiques qui permettent de calculer le "ranking" d'une page, et comment fonctionne l'indexation de cet océan de page. Ce sont les mécanismes algorithmiques qui sont mis en lumière ici, ce qui permet de les démystifier. Quelques belles anecdotes sur le web et quelques jolis exercices sont proposés en illustration.

Certains annonçaient il y a quelques décennies l'alimentation future sous forme de pilules. Il n'en a rien été et il n'en sera rien. C'est à partir du progrès rapide des connaissances scientifiques, des innovations technologiques et de la perception par le consommateur du rôle de l'alimentation, que l'on peut tenter de faire des prévisions à court terme. L'alimentation est un facteur d'environnement qui peut non seulemen SP.401 Introduction to Women's and Gender Studies (MIT)

A message to Queens alumni from President Davies about the positive momentum at Queens, ways to stay in touch, and the importance of alumni support - at any level - to Queens' future.
Charles Darwin's mother Susannah Wedgwood died when he was just eight, and he could never remember her face - until he discovered a long-hidden portrait of her as a young woman. Hear Darwin's great-great-grandson Randal Keynes explain why finally seeing this miniature of his mother (on display at the Fitzwilliam Museum) was so significant for the great naturalist, and why portraits of loved ones were so important to both the Wedgwood and Darwin families.
Robert Stavins, business and government professor at Harvard Kennedy School, says he owes his entire career path — from student to Peace Corps volunteer to environmental protector — to JFK's inaugural speech.
This video has no words or facts but is instead a wonderful look into animals of the Arctic Circle in their natural habitats. The most viewed animal is the polar bear including a mother and her 2 cubs. Some other animals briefly seen include the Arctic Fox, two different types of birds, and reindeer. This video would be fun for pre-learners to see these animals outside of a zoo setting, but older learners could follow the lesson underneath the video to answer the following questions:
This ten minute video is the only video recovered after Columbia disintegrated during re-entry. It depicts the crew during their final preparations, before landing. The tape ends four minutes before the first failure. The rest of the video was destroyed. The use of this video may be limited in use for most classrooms due to its quality and subject matter. However, it does portray what happens on this flight and the risks that humans face when seeking new frontiers.
Background
The ability to predict antibody binding sites (aka antigenic determinants or B-cell epitopes) for a given protein is a precursor to new vaccine design and diagnostics. Among the various methods of B-cell epitope identification X-ray crystallography is one of the most reliable methods. Using these experimental data computational methods exist for B-cell epitope prediction. As the number of structures of antibody-protein complexes grows, further interest in prediction methods using 3D s

The butterfly can fly around using its wings and sees where it is going through its eyes. The spiracles allow the butterfly to breathe and the legs are what it uses to walk or crawl around on. The antennae help the butterfly know where it is going. The proboscis is what the butterfly uses to drink nectar from flowers.

In the Bahraini capital of Manama, protesters remained in Pearl Square on Sunday after taking over the square the previous day to demand radical government changes. Jon Decker reports.
<p>This course is designed as an introduction to the interdisciplinary field of Women's and Gender Studies, an academic area of study focused on the ways that sex and gender manifest themselves in social, cultural, and political contexts. The primary goal of this course is to familiarize students with key issues, questions and debates in Women's Studies scholarship, both historical and contemporary. This semester you will become acquainted with many of the critical questions and concepts f
