Mechatronics is the integration of mechanism, electronics and computer control to produce a functional system.
While qualitative models can now be built with the qual package (18), SBML was not designed for capture of information from the scientific literature nor for integration of mechanism fragments from various sources.
The integration of mechanism fragments extracted by natural language processing into pathways can be automated to some extent (19), but is likely to require some human evaluation and intervention, which is facilitated by the readability of the BEL.
The integration of mechanism-based therapies (MBTs, e.g., cetuximab or bevacizumab) with chemotherapy in CRC has expanded treatment options, resulting in survival gains in some patients (Cunningham et al, 2010).
Research in evolvability encompasses the integration of the mechanisms of population genetics and the mechanisms translating genetic variation into structured organismal variation.
This review will highlight recent advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that impact mitochondrial form and the integration of these mechanisms with one another and with cellular function.
Recent trends in renewable energy policy include integration of policy mechanisms, linkage between electricity, heating/cooling, and transport sector policies and the development of new mechanisms to integrate increasing amounts of renewable energy into energy systems.
This interdisciplinary approach permits integration of biological mechanisms and models of processes contributing to disease progression at various scales into mathematical models.
In this Review, we discuss how the nanoscale protein organization in the kinetochore, which we refer to as kinetochore 'architecture', organizes its biochemical activities to facilitate the realization and integration of emergent mechanisms underlying its three major functions.
As Laubichler (2007) points out, "any future synthesis of evo devo will be conceptual rather than simply data driven…[and allow] the integration of developmental mechanisms into evolutionary explanations at a higher level of resolution than the current ideas about regulatory evolution and the evolution of the genetic toolkit suggest" (pp. 343, 359).
