It was 2020, and Nicolas Orban, Stéphane Derosiaux and Stéphane Maarek were beyond frustrated with Apache Kafka. The tool for handling real-time data streams simply couldn’t keep up with the trio’s engineering needs — particularly during the pandemic, when companies were rushing to embrace cloud services. “Many companies were finding it difficult to scale their […]

On average, Agicap’s clients manage 15 different bank accounts each. So the chief financial officers (CFOs) working for these companies sometimes struggle to make sure that there will be enough money in the right bank account to pay employees and suppliers across different subsidiaries, countries and currencies. That’s also why they turn to Agicap to […]

Tozero, a Munich-based startup that recovers valuable raw materials from recycled lithium-ion batteries, is gearing up to scale. The startup just closed an oversubscribed €11 million seed round (around $11.7M) to step up production by building its first industrial deployment (A.K.A first-of-a-kind or FOAK) plant. Currently, Tozero’s pilot plant processes nine tonnes of lithium-ion battery […]

The majority of the aging population in Japan still prefers using cash for transactions, according to a recent report citing government data. In 2023, cashless transactions in Japan totaled 126.7 trillion yen ($885 billion), accounting for 39.3 percent of all spending in the country, said the Japanese government. The government hopes that number reaches 40 […]

Researchers from Peking University have developed ERTool, an open-source Python package designed to simplify the implementation of the Evidential Reasoning (ER) approach for multi-source evidence fusion. This tool addresses the challenges of integrating data from multiple sources in uncertain decision-making environments. The results are published in Health Data Science.Researchers from Peking University have developed ERTool, an open-source Python package designed to simplify the implementation of the Evidential Reasoning (ER) approach for multi-source evidence fusion.

Researchers have trained an e-nose, which detects chemicals in the air, to identify the origin of oil based on the proportion of volatile organic compounds. Since oil is a mixture of different hydrocarbons present in varying proportions depending on its source, the e-nose could be used to locate soil-contaminating oil spills, monitor the environment at refineries, and conduct oil field studies.Researchers have trained an e-nose, which detects chemicals in the air, to identify the origin of oil based on the proportion of volatile organic compounds.

A research team has recently published a study titled “Topology, dynamics, and control of a muscle-architected soft arm,” in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The paper, which made the cover, describes an unprecedented computational model that captures the intricate muscular architecture of an octopus arm.A research team has recently published a study titled “Topology, dynamics, and control of a muscle-architected soft arm,” in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
