In this paper, we initially construct a master control platform of Yunnan rare and precious metal materials (RAPMMs) genetic engineering framework based on the idea of material gene engineering, which includes a master material data management sub-platform, a high-throughput computing sub-platform and a high-throughput material preparation and characterization sub-platform, and connects the data information in the sub-platform. The database covers the standard performance data of RAPMMs from all over the world, and the initial amount of data is 2.2 million items, which provides data resources for deep learning of material big data in the future. In addition, we have researched the fusion and convergence technology of multi-source heterogeneous RAPMMs data, which support the management, processing and storage of all kinds of materials professional data. In order to reduce the researchers’ need for precise retrieval of large amounts of data, the deep search technology based on rare metal data is investigated to achieve precise search in a large data environment and provide professional visualization and statistical analysis techniques. Through the technical research on the interface of the open high-throughput computing platform, the online generation and submission of the operations of the first-principles computing software VASP are realized, and the automatic data identification and import of the calculation result files are achieved. Finally, it realizes the functions of controlling and controlling the high-throughput calculation platform, high-throughput preparation and characterization platform, and data platform, with the functions of resource coordination and scheduling, information sharing, public database management, and relevant information retrieval and query, etc., and establishes a common database structure for rare and precious metals, which lays a solid foundation for the future development of material genetic engineering.

High-throughput experiments are routinely performed in modern biological studies. However, extracting meaningful results from massive experimental data sets is a challenging task for biologists. Projecting data onto pathway and network contexts is a powerful way to unravel patterns embedded in seemingly scattered large data sets and assist knowledge discovery related to cancer and other complex diseases. We have developed a Cytoscape app called “ReactomeFIViz”, which utilizes a highly reliable gene functional interaction network and human curated pathways from Reactome and other pathway databases. This app provides a suite of features to assist biologists in performing pathway- and network-based data analysis in a biologically intuitive and user-friendly way. Biologists can use this app to uncover network and pathway patterns related to their studies, search for gene signatures from gene expression data sets, reveal pathways significantly enriched by genes in a list, and integrate multiple genomic data types into a pathway context using probabilistic graphical models. We believe our app will give researchers substantial power to analyze intrinsically noisy high-throughput experimental data to find biologically relevant information.

The supercomputing platform is suitable for the acceleration of high throughput computing intensive applications, due to the difficulty of mathematical calculation and the communication of multi-user large data volumes, the throughput rate requirement of computing equipment in various cipher processing related applications is very high. In order to accelerate the operation of the application of high throughput cipher processing, this article proposes a coarse-grained parallel acceleration framework for MIC of supercomputing platform. The framework does not take the computing process of the algorithm into account, but achieves parallel computing by assigning the data to each computing node. The framework adopts a three-level parallel structure to accelerate the application of cipher processing, namely multi-node, multi-MIC of nodes, and multi-thread of MICs. The experimental results for a variety of cipher processing applications show that the framework applies coarse-grained parallel processing to the applications of high throughput cipher processing by supercomputing platform, and obtains the significant acceleration effect.

We can now edit genomes. The technique, which involves cutting and pasting DNA code into the genome, is faster and cheaper than traditional genetic engineering and can be used on almost any animal or plant. What will this technology mean for the future? It may pave the way to banishing many diseases, and help feed the burgeoning population of the world. Woolly mammoths may again roam the tundra. But are there also risks? Might a nightmarish world of bioterrorism and rogue synthetic organisms await? John Parrington reports on the astonishing revolution underway in genetic engineering and why it matters to us all.

Some years have now elapsed since I had the honour of addressing you from this chair. In the paper which I then read to you I urged on our younger members the necessity of studying finance, and especially of endeavouring to form a just estimate of the value of money, and of the rate of interest which will obtain in the future, so far as that future forms an element in our calculations. Without this knowledge we shall build with insufficient materials, and in the absence of its thoughtful application to our daily work, and to our periodical investigations and valuations, we shall rear a fabric which, although it may last during our lives, and look to all appearance as if it were carefully and substantially built, will certainly, before its time, show symptoms of decay, and finally fall about the ears of too confiding policy-holders.

The gold and platinum-group elements (PGE) mineralization of the Guli and Kresty intrusions was formed in the process of polyphase magmatism of the central type during the Permian and Triassic age. It is suggested that native osmium and iridium crystal nuclei were formed in the mantle at earlier high-temperature events of magma generation of the mantle substratum in the interval of 765–545 Ma and were brought by meimechite melts to the area of development of magmatic bodies. The pulsating magmatism of the later phases assisted in particle enlargement. Native gold was crystallized at a temperature of 415–200 °C at the hydrothermal-metasomatic stages of the meimechite, melilite, foidolite and carbonatite magmatism. The association of minerals of precious metals with oily, resinous and asphaltene bitumen testifies to the genetic relation of the mineralization to carbonaceous metasomatism. Identifying the carbonaceous gold and platinoid ore formation associated genetically with the parental formation of ultramafic, alkaline rocks and carbonatites is suggested.

The chapter provides an overview of how policy analysis takes place in Mexican Think Tanks. It focuses on two of the few organisations of this kind that currently exist in the country: the Centro de Investigación para el Desarrollo (CIDAC, or Centre for Research for Development) and the Centro de Estudios Espinosa Yglesias (CEEY, or Centre of Studies Espinosa Yglesias). The chapter is divided into four sections. The first discusses the main features of think tanks, with a particular focus on the Mexican ones. The second presents the origins and general objectives of CIDAC and CEEY, and describes how these two organizations conduct policy analysis. The third compares both cases, paying particular attention to how they define their topics of interest, how they gather relevant information, what kind of policy products they generate, what kind of communication channels they use, and how they assess the impact that their analyses may have had. The chapter closes with some conclusions and general remarks about the future challenges of policy analysis in Mexican think tanks.

AbstractIn the 1890s, questions about whether to base the American currency upon gold or silver dominated public discourse and eventually forced a realignment of the political parties. The matter often confuses modern observers, who have trouble understanding how such a technically complex—even arcane—issue could arouse such passions. The fact that no major nation currently backs its currency with precious metal creates the suspicion that the issue was a “red herring” that distracted from matters of far greater importance. Yet the rhetoric surrounding the “Battle of the Standards” indicates that the more sophisticated advocates of both sides understood that, in the financial context of the 1890s, the contest between gold and silver not only had important economic implications but would substantially affect the future development of the United States.
