- Mimicking electric eel cells to produce energy
- Mimicking electric eel cells to produce energyI'm thinking electric cars.I'm thinking this could push electric car technology further and make it more feasible. Put a whole bunch of these things into a large batteries. The ability to control the output (and hopefully the input when charging?) should be very useful...

- Mimicking electric eel cells to produce energy
- A team of U.S. engineers has found that it's possible to build artificial cells replicating the electrical behavior of electric eel cells. In fact, these artificial cells deliver better performance than the real ones, called electrocytes, which can generate electric potentials of up to 600 volts. The researchers have developed...

- Is there really life on Earth?
- Obviously, the answer is yes. But if we compare topographic maps of Earth and Mars, the answer is less evident, according to researchers from the University of California at Berkeley. They've found that landscapes on the two planets are often very similar, from rounded hills to meandering stream channels or...

- Nanobatteries -- for your eyes only!
- A new U.S. research center, the National Center for Design of Biomimetic Nanoconductors, has been opened to promote new ideas in the field of nanomedicine. For example, a team of researchers at Sandia National Laboratories SNL is developing a nano-size battery to be implanted in the eye to power artificial...

- 'SOA is not ERP'
- A reader provided some thoughtful insights to my recent post on whether SOA projects may exceed ERP systems in pain and suffering. I wanted to bring this out and share his thoughts with you. In the posting, I quoted Momentum's Jeff Schneider, who said that building an SOA requires...

- SOA=ERP but worse: fair analogy?
- SOA=ERP but worse: fair analogy?Talking TurkeyI have to agree with you Joe. Momentum's approach to describing the challenges of implementing SOA appears to be far too monolithic.I certainly begin my own approach by saying something very much similar to your comment: " ...the beauty of SOA is that it...
