Cell (biology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell is surrounded by a plasma membrane. The cell is the structural and functional unit of all living organisms, and is sometimes called the "building block of life." Some organisms, such as bacteria, are unicellular, consisting of a single cell. This membrane serves to separate and protect a cell from its surrounding environment and is made mostly from a double layer of lipids (fat-like molecules) and proteins. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Cell_(biology)   (3493 words)

MSN Encarta - Cell (biology) The extraordinary biochemical diversity of prokaryotic cells is manifested in the wide-ranging lifestyles of the archaebacteria and the bacteria, whose habitats include polar ice, deserts, and hydrothermal vents—deep regions of the ocean under great pressure where hot water geysers erupt from cracks in the ocean floor. The smallest cell, a type of bacterium known as a mycoplasma, measures 0.0001 mm (0.000004 in) in diameter; 10,000 mycoplasmas in a row are only as wide as the diameter of a human hair. The DNA in eukaryotic cells is enclosed in a special organelle called the nucleus, which serves as the cell’s command center and information library. encarta.msn.com /encyclopedia_761568585/Cell_(biology).html   (2406 words)

Cell-Biology.com: Cellular Biology Cells are the structural units of all living things (with the possible exceptions of viruses and prions). These cells, found only among bacteria, are small (1-5 microns), have a cell wall outside the cell membrane and lack membrane bound organelles. Cells arise in the body from progenitor or stem cells and become specialized for one or more distinct functions such as contraction, nerve conduction, secretion, absorption, or protection. www.cell-biology.com   (760 words)

Cell (microprocessor) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In the Cell the problem has been reversed: reading the data is no longer the difficult problem due to the complex encodings used in industry; today the problem is efficiently decoding that data into an ever-less-compressed version as quickly as possible. The Cell architecture is intended to be scalable through the use of vector processing. Cell was developed to be a general purpose processor and also a multimedia processor. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Cell_(microprocessor)   (2237 words)

cell-1.ars In its most basic form IBM's Cell does what computer architects have been doing since the first cache was invented — Cell moves a small bit of memory closer to the execution units, and lets the processor store frequently-used code and data in that local memory. In this brief overview, I'm first going to talk in some general terms about the Cell approach — what it is, what it's like, what's behind it, etc. — before doing an information dump at the end of the article for more technical readers to chew on and debate. IBM's Cell embodies many of the "RISC redivivus" principles outlined above, but it comes at these concepts from a completely different angle. arstechnica.com /articles/paedia/cpu/cell-1.ars   (1117 words)

cell-2.ars This is a perfectly good characterization, but I'd take it even further and call Cell a "network on a chip." As I described yesterday, the Cell's eight SPUs are essentially full-blown vector "computers," insofar as they are fairly simple CPUs with their own local storage. The basic architecture of the Cell is described by IBM as a "system on a chip" (SoC) design.

The Cell The cell wall is a rigid structure outside of the cell membrane composed mainly of the polysaccharide cellulose. The cell is one of the most basic units of life. Mitochondria (many mitochondrion) are often referred to as the power plants of the cell because many of the reactions that produce energy take place in mitochondria. web.jjay.cuny.edu /~acarpi/NSC/13-cells.htm   (534 words)

Floatation Mirror Cell Design Software Cell is a public domain program written originally as part of the design of the 24" equatorially mounted telescope Byron Melland and I built for the Pomona Valley Amateur Astronomers. An early form of the program in BASIC (for 9 and 18 point cells only) was published in ATM and has been used by a number of commercial telescope manufacturers for their mirror cells. You are free to use Cell for private or commercial mirror cells, but any commercial use should be accompanied by a credit in the documentation stating that the mirror cell design was computed using Cell by David Chandler and giving a reference to the David Chandler Company home page: http://www.DavidChandler.com. www.davidchandler.com /cell.htm   (726 words)

Chip trio allows glimpse into 'Cell' Tech News on ZDNet Cell has nearly "taped out"--an industry term meaning that the chip's pen and paper design and layout have been completed. While Cell's hardware design might be difficult, it's creating software for the chip that will be the trickiest part of establishing it in the market. While the processor's design is still under wraps, the companies say Cell's capabilities will allow it to deliver one trillion calculations per second (teraflop) or more of floating-point calculations. news.zdnet.com /2100-9584_22-948493.html   (1383 words)

Biopharmaceutical Cell biology glossary Cell rupture caused by physical or chemical means, or by phage infection and propagation leading to the release of the cell content; also the death of microorganisms after the stationary phase of a batch fermentation. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Cells seeded on patterned surfaces are only able to attach to the adhesive areas and consequently adopt the shape of the adhesive island. www.genomicglossaries.com /content/cell_bio.asp   (6324 words)

Immunity Online In a series of careful experiments, Canque and colleagues have identified a population of progenitor cells from the fetal bone marrow that are recruited into the thymus parenchyma and subsequently adopt a T cell fate. Crabtree and colleagues show that deletion of the main regulatory subunit of the calcineurin complex in B cells leads to defects in B cell development and immunity, but not tolerance. The lymph node section was stained with anti-LYVE-1 (green) and anti-B220 (red) to identify lymphatic vessels and B cells, respectively. www.immunity.com   (356 words)

PlayStation 3 chip has split personality - News at GameSpot One of the big problems with the Cell, said Justin Rattner, an Intel fellow, is that the processing units aren't identical, a situation that increases complexity and the opportunity for bugs. Test production of Cell chips is set to begin later this year, and the processors will appear later in workstation PCs optimized for animation and other graphics chores. Kahle said IBM and its Cell partners will provide game developers and other code writers with open-source tools and guidelines for working with the Cell, but game developers will have the final say on how they chop up computing tasks among the processing units. www.gamespot.com /news/2005/02/07/news_6118072.html   (832 words)
