WSO2 Summer School Features Free Class on Optimizing Master Data Management in an Enterprise SOA

2011-07-07

Increasingly enterprises are implementing master data management (MDM) solutions to ensure the consistency of information across the organization, enabling better decision-making and more efficient operations. However, adapting master data formats to different data models within a service-oriented architecture (SOA) often poses significant challenges. Some IT architects and developers turn to data duplication as a temporary workaround, but this approach leads to system instability and data inconsistency. A more secure, long-term solution for leveraging existing master data ...

Moving beyond embryonic stem cells: Encouragement on the horizon

2011-07-07

ROCHESTER, Minn. — For nearly two decades, the medical world and the American public have grappled with the lightning-rod topic of stem cells, in particular the controversy surrounding cells from human embryos. But when researchers four years ago successfully "reprogrammed" adult body cells to become stem cells, some thought the ethical debate was nearly over. Those redirected cells, known as induced pluripotent cells, or iPS cells, show potential as therapy. "The benefit is they require no destruction of human embryos," says Mayo Clinic hematologist/oncologist C. Christopher ...

2011-07-07

RIVERSIDE, Calif. (www.ucr.edu) -- A team led by a professor at the University of California, Riverside Bourns College of Engineering has made a discovery in semiconductor nanowire laser technology that could potentially do everything from kill viruses to increase storage capacity of DVDs. Ultraviolet semiconductor diode lasers are widely used in data processing, information storage and biology. Their applications have been limited, however, by size, cost and power. The current generation of ultraviolet lasers is based on a material called gallium nitride, but Jianlin ...

Termites' digestive system could act as biofuel refinery

2011-07-07

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - One of the peskiest household pests, while disastrous to homes, could prove to be a boon for cars, according to a Purdue University study. Mike Scharf, the O. Wayne Rollins/Orkin Chair in Molecular Physiology and Urban Entomology, said his laboratory has discovered a cocktail of enzymes from the guts of termites that may be better at getting around the barriers that inhibit fuel production from woody biomass. The Scharf Laboratory found that enzymes in termite guts are instrumental in the insects' ability to break down the wood they eat. The findings, ...

Folate intake may reduce colorectal cancer risk

2011-07-07

A new study finds high folate intake is associated with a reduced risk of colorectal cancer, a finding consistent with the findings of most previous epidemiologic studies. The study is reassuring, as previous recent evidence has suggested that consumption of very high levels of folate through supplements and from folate-fortified diet may increase risk of some cancers. Nonetheless, the potential importance of folate in colorectal cancer prevention remains in question because at least one other study found folate supplementation had no effect on recurrence of colorectal ...
