"A collection of interconnected networks" defines what the Internet is, but not what it is not. Events threaten Internet fragmentation: politics suggest countries or ISPs may secede or be de-peered, disputes between ISPs result in persistent unreachability between their customers, and architectural changes risk…

With the large-scale penetration of the internet, for the first time, humanity has become linked by a single, open, communications platform. Harnessing this fact, we report insights arising from a unified internet activity and location dataset of an unparalleled scope and accuracy drawn from over a trillion (1.5×1012)…

At the end of the 19th century the logician C.S. Peirce coined the term "fallibilism" for the "… the doctrine that our knowledge is never absolute but always swims, as it were, in a continuum of uncertainty and of indeterminacy" [1]. In terms of scientific practice, this means we are obliged to reexamine the…

The TCP/IP is the most common network protocol in use today. The Internet uses this protocol. All computers on the network are identified by an IP address. This is a series of numbers that have been agreed upon. The series of numbers is separated by a ‘.,’ as shown below: 1. 192.168.0.8 or 10.1.236.88 There is another…

In communications, the obstacle to high bandwidth and reliable transmission is usually the interconnections, not the links. Nowhere is this more evident than on the Internet, where broadband connections to homes, offices and now mobile smart phones are a frequent source of frustration, and the interconnections between…

The Internet has never floated freely, untethered from political realities. Nor has it ever been truly global. Nevertheless, a growing panic has emerged around "Internet fragmentation," evoking the threat of a so-called "splinternet." And for good reason. A fragmented Internet carries consequences for free speech…

About the Internet Healthcare Coalition As individuals take a larger role in managing their own healthcare, more consumers are independently seeking out health information via the Internet. Health professionals are also turning to the Internet to keep informed and interact with their patients. Given the vast amount of…

Medicine on the Internet The evolution of the 'information age' in medicine is mirrored in the exponential growth of medical webpages, increasing number of online databases, and expanding services and publications available on the Internet. The handful of computers linked by the predecessor of the Internet in 1969 has…

'Susanne Breuer Votruba'] Introduction Internet use has become an increasingly common leisure time activity among Chinese citizens. The association between Internet use and engagement in leisure activities is especially unclear among China population. This study aims to investigate Internet usage and to determine…

We find that the topologies of real world networks, such as those formed within human societies, by the Internet, or among cellular proteins, are dominated by the mode of the interactions considered among the individuals. Consequently, a major dichotomy in previously studied networks arises from modeling networks in…

Accumulating evidence suggests brain structural and functional alterations in Internet Use Disorder (IUD). However, conclusions are strongly limited due to the retrospective case-control design of the studies, small samples, and the focus on general rather than symptom-specific approaches. We here employed a…

The internet has changed the way teachers and students access information and build knowl-edge. The COVID-19 pandemic has recently created challenges for both teachers and students, demanding new methodologies for remote learning. In Life Sciences, mixing online content with practical activities represents an even…

For decades, molecular visualization software has been fundamental to education and research in chemistry, structural biology, and materials science. These tools have enabled the inspection of structures, dynamics, and interactions, yet their reliance on two-dimensional (2D) interfaces imposes persistent limitations.…

Machine learning has revolutionized many fields and has recently found applications in chemistry and materials science. The small datasets commonly found in chemistry sparked the development of sophisticated machine-learning approaches that incorporate chemical knowledge for each application and, therefore, require…

We present two digital-based serious games aiming to engage students and the general public with battery sciences. The first one is a multiscale simulator in Mixed Reality of a battery-powered Electric Vehicle (EV) interacting with an Electrical Grid. One of the players drives the EV in a Virtual Reality (VR)…
