Multiple Sketch Users in DDDoolz
This paper presents DDDoolz, a desktop-VR three-dimensional voxel sketchtool. DDDoolz is developed in the Design Systems Group to explore the use of Virtual Reality technology in the early design stage. The aim is to offer a sketch-like environment in VR with an unobtrusive interface. The paper presents DDDoolz, how it is used in education and with partners in architectural practice, and some future developments. As an extension to current functionality, the possibility of multiple users at the
6.4 Summary of Section 6
6.5 Conformational changes upon protein–DNA interactions During binding, both the protein and the DNA can alter their conformation. In the case of proteins, this conformational change can involve small changes in side-chain location, but can also involve local refolding. These changes upon binding of specific DNA sequences serve to facilitate the interaction and also to enhance the binding of other proteins, such as when dimerization of two proteins occurs at a single recognition site. Changes such as these can be the basis of cooperative binding e
UT employees get healthy with the Heart Walk

Literary Festival 2016: How can we Transform the Economic Lives of the Ultra Poor? [Audio]
Speaker(s): Professor Robin Burgess, Professor Naila Kabeer, Lewis Temple | Editor's note: We apologise for the poor audio quality of this podcast. Tackling extreme poverty has proven to be one of the most intractable challenges facing policymakers today. This event will explore the impact of an innovative and proven approach for poverty alleviation, developed in Bangladesh by the international NGO BRAC, targeted at individuals defined as being extreme or ‘Ultra-Poor’. Speakers will discuss
Creating a City Administration System (CAS) using Virtual Reality in an Immersive Collaborative Envi
Current problems in administration of a city are found to be decentralized and noninteractive for an effective city management. This usually will result in inconsistencies of decision-making, inefficient services and slow response to a particular action. City administration often spends more money, time and human resource because of these problems. This research demonstrates our research and development of creating a City Administration System (CAS) to solve the problems stated above. The task o

CAD and Management of Construction Projects
The increasing interest in computer-aided design (CAD) has prompted research that is aimed at identifying the opportunities for construction managers and building contractors. It has been found that the use of CAD systems in the U.K. is mainly confined to the production of detailed drawings. Indeed, most of the systems used are 2-D drafting tools and incapable of supporting the integration of even modest amounts of nongraphical (construction) data. On the other hand, many 3-D modeling systems ha

6.1 Introduction At the end of every school experience placement the mentor and student teacher will hold a school experience review meeting. This is an essential element of the placement. It is an opportunity for unresolved issues as well as achievements to be discussed and plans for future successful progress to be made. It is particularly important that the student teacher understands the assessment and comments that are to go in the school experience report, and that the implications for future prof
Superficies adulteradas: el muro en l?nea y la representaci?n f?lmica [Adulterated surfaces: the onl
Online communities use a ?wall? as a place to articulate non - synchronic communication among its members. Such a place, however, poorly explores the metaphor of the wall as a means of enhancing online experiences. Online ?walls? do not explore or challenge the richness of a real wall, and they do not embrace new experiences that are only possible in the digital world. In order to tackle these issues, this paper analyzes three movie scenes where the everyday perception of the wall is altered by

3.2 The hierarchy of the courts A court hierarchy establishes which decisions are binding on which courts. There are some exceptions and complications to what follows but, in general and for most purposes, the higher up a court is in the hierarchy, the more authoritative its decisions. I mean ‘authoritative’ in the sense that decisions of the higher courts will bind lower courts to apply the same decided principle. Activity 5 asks you to explore the court structure further.
