Toward a General Framework for Multimodal Big Data Analysis.

Multimodal Analytics in Big Data architectures implies compounded configurations of the data processing tasks. Each modality in data requires specific analytics that triggers specific data processing tasks. Scalability can be reached at the cost of an attentive calibration of the resources shared by the different tasks searching for a trade-off with the multiple requirements they impose.

Actin networks voltage circuits.

Filaments of the cellular protein actin can form bundles, which can conduct ionic currents as well as mechanical and voltage solitons. These inherent properties can be utilized to generate computing circuits solely based on self-assembled actin bundle structures. Starting with experimentally observed networks of actin bundles, we model their network structure in terms of edges and nodes.
