TL;DR: The current review presents the molecular basis of how environment can promote stable epigenomes and modified phenotypes, and distinguishes the difference between epigenetic transgenerational inheritance through the germ line versus somatic cell mitotic stability.
Abstract: The majority of environmental factors can not modify DNA sequence, but can influence the epigenome. The mitotic stability of the epigenome and ability of environmental epigenetics to influence phenotypic variation and disease, suggests environmental epigenetics will have a critical role in disease etiology and biological areas such as evolutionary biology. The current review presents the molecular basis of how environment can promote stable epigenomes and modified phenotypes, and distinguishes the difference between epigenetic transgenerational inheritance through the germ line versus somatic cell mitotic stability.

TL;DR: In this article, the combination of a spouted bed with microwave heating to improve heating uniformity was evaluated on a laboratory system in which evaporated diced apples of about 24% moisture were dried to about 5% at 70°C air temperature using four levels of microwave power density.
Abstract: The combination of a spouted bed with microwave heating to improve heating uniformity was evaluated. Experiments were performed on a laboratory system in which evaporated diced apples of about 24% moisture were dried to about 5% at 70°C air temperature using four levels of microwave power density (0 to 6.1 W/g). With the combination method, temperature uniformity in diced apples was greatly improved as compared to that with a stationary bed during microwave drying. Products had less discoloration and higher rehydration rates as compared to conventional hot air drying or spouted bed (SB) drying. Drying time could be reduced by >80% compared with SB drying without microwave heating.

TL;DR: A resilience-oriented service restoration method using microgrids to restore critical load after natural disasters is proposed in this paper, and the impacts of fault locations, available generation resources, and load priority on the restoration strategy are discussed.
Abstract: A resilience-oriented service restoration method using microgrids to restore critical load after natural disasters is proposed in this paper. Considering the scarcity of power generation resources, the concept of continuous operating time (COT) is introduced to determine the availability of microgrids for critical load restoration and to assess the service time. Uncertainties induced by intermittent energy sources and load are also taken into account. The critical load restoration problem is modeled as a chance-constrained stochastic program. A Markov chain-based operation model is designed to describe the stochastic energy variations within microgrids, based on which the COT is assessed. A two-stage heuristic is developed for the critical load restoration problem. First, a strategy table containing the information of all feasible restoration paths is established. Then the critical load restoration strategy is obtained by solving a linear integer program. Numerical simulations are performed on the IEEE 123-node feeder system under several scenarios to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The impacts of fault locations, available generation resources, and load priority on the restoration strategy are discussed.

TL;DR: This work manipulates the interface of a computer-mediated idea generation system to enhance the system's motivational affordance, i.e., the system’s properties that fulfill users' motivational needs.
Abstract: Increasing globalization has created tremendous opportunities and challenges for organizations and societies. Consequently, a broad range of information technologies to better support the collaboration of diverse, and increasingly distributed, sets of participants is ever more utilized. Arguably, the success of such technology-mediated collaboration is dependent upon the quality of each individual's contributions; however, although individuals' motivations to do their best could be significantly influenced by the design of a system's human--computer interface, this area has received little attention within the context of group collaboration environments. We fill this gap by integrating research from human--computer interaction, motivation, and technology-supported group work to theoretically derive mechanisms for increasing each individual's motivation within a collective setting. Specifically, we manipulate the interface of a computer-mediated idea generation system (a widely used collaboration tool) to enhance the system's motivational affordance, i.e., the system's properties that fulfill users' motivational needs. Results from two studies demonstrate that by embedding the theoretically derived mechanisms “providing feedback” and “designing for optimal challenge” into the collaboration environment, significant performance gains were realized. The results suggest that even slight manipulations of the human--computer interface can contribute significantly to the successful design of a wide variety of group collaboration environments.
