socol is programmed to use solar radiation and surface meteorological data taken from The National Solar Radiation Data Base (NSRDB) for 239 stations over the USA.
When an enzyme becomes deactivated while on the surface, it is programmed to remain stationary at that point and only desorb when the cellulose chain it is located on is hydrolyzed into a chain of six sugars or less by an EG or CBH and becomes soluble.
After a week of mine-clearing operations, military officials, who had declared the channel cleared, belatedly discovered additional mines that lay on the bottom and that are programmed to float to the surface after a preset number of ships pass over them.

This force was programmed to be perpendicular to the virtual surface, and it was proportional to the amount by which the fingertip penetrated the surface.
The color-changing strip can be programmed to respond precisely to the unique surface tension exhibited by any liquid of interest.
Flying microrobots could be instructed to pollinate a field, or — inspired by mound-building termites — an autonomous robot construction team could be programmed to build 3D structures and traversable surfaces, to stack sandbags along vulnerable coastlines before a hurricane, or to lay out barriers around toxic chemical spills.
In less than 24 hours we'll know whether the Mars Curiosity Rover, the next in NASA's line of vehicles designed to probe one of Earth's closest planetary neighbors, plummeted to the Martian surface as it's been programmed to, or not.
