Parallel course: Researchers help ease transition to parallel programming
(PhysOrg.com) -- In 1995, a good computer chip had a clock speed of about 100 megahertz. Seven years later, in 2002, a good computer chip had a clock speed of about three gigahertz -- a 30-fold increase. And ...

New technology speeds up DNA 'rewriting' and measures the effects of the changes in living cells
Our ability to "read" DNA has made tremendous progress in the past few decades, but the ability to understand and alter the genetic code, that is, to "rewrite" the DNA-encoded instructions, has lagged behind. A new Weizmann ...
