Team Bondi might not exist anymore as a development studio but it’s former leader says that one of the lessons that other companies can take from it is that research and development of proprietary technology can push the development time up significantly.Brendan McNamara, who was the founder of Team Bondi and l... |

A group of investigators at the University of Bristol, in the United Kingdom, argue in a new study that they were able to develop a new imaging technique, which enables them to use computer tomography (CT) in order to monitor how ants move and setup their colonies.
This approach allows for the creation of a four-... |

While animals are a common presence all over the planet today, things weren't always set up this way. In fact, more than 550 million years ago, there were no animals to speak of. Researchers are now investigating how the earliest complex lifeforms came to be.Scientists are now proposing that the first animals ma... |

One of the staples of modern Earth is its ability to support complex life forms. A new study recently looked closely at how that became possible. We often take for granted the vast numbers of species that exist on the planet, thinking that they are a given, and that there is no other way for the Earth to be arranged.... |

For many years, researchers have been hypothesizing that it may have been possible for life to appear and develop several times. Basing their idea on the fact that the natural world shows countless examples in which the same ability evolves in different species through different mechanisms, the researchers argued tha... |

A group of researchers has recently demonstrated that simple peptides may have played a monumental role in promoting the development of more complex life on our planet. For many years, evolutionary biologists have been wondering as to how the gap between Earth's prebiotic chemical inventory, and the more complex... |

For centuries, biologists have promoted their field of study as the one investigating life. The very word means the “science of life,” but, thus far, no clear definition of what the actual word “life” means and implies has been found. One of the main difficulties preventing experts from coming... |

According to a new study, it would appear that the prairie dog features the most complex form of language existent on the planet, save from our own. The small rodent may even communicate better than dolphins or whales, which were until now considered to be the epitome of animal language. Northern Arizona University (... |

One of the basic properties of matter, and the thing that arguably made life on Earth possible, is the fact that its atoms and molecules tend to come together, and structure themselves in various patterns. However, despite all odds, these patterns are not always symmetrical, as one could expect. In fact, at times, en... |

Scientists have been trying for a very long time to come to terms with some of the most basic properties of the Universe. In spite of the term “basic,” they are actually fairly difficult to discover, and so a group of experts is currently proposing a new way of approaching this issue. According to Raphael... |

In a series of three scientific papers that were all published in the top journal Science, experts reveal the fact that a huge degree of complexity appears to exist even in the most basic life forms. In their studies of the simplest bacteria, experts learned that a high level of complexity and organization formed the... |

Ever since Charles Darwin evolution model managed to impose itself through logic and reason as the main approach to explaining our origins and history, experts have been trying to figure out what the root of life is. In other words, they are trying to understand how the primeval cell, the first life form, may have lo... |

Scientists at the Rice University have recently announced that they finished the painstaking and laborious work of browsing through thousands of genes and proteins, in order to discover the explanation for our biological complexity. One of the main reasons why we are like this today is the fact that we have evolved i... |

One of the biggest releases of the first three months of 2009 is Empire: Total War from Creative Assembly and SEGA. The game blends a strategic layer, where you can take charge of the entire running of a kingdom in the XVIII century, complete with diplomatic action, espionage, research, city development and tax manag... |

ENIAC versus a modern digital computer - which one is faster? Well, ENIAC weighed about 27 tons and filled several rooms while a modern computer weighs less than ten kilograms and you can fill a single room with several hundreds of them, so if we were to judge the computing power according to size then ENIAC would ce... |
