Humidity’s impact on greenhouse gas emissions from air conditioning
Here, we show that the emissions associated with reducing air humidity (i.e., removing water vapor from air) are larger than emissions associated with reducing air temperature (i.e., cooling air).

An Ontology-Based Dialogue Management Framework for Virtual Personal Assistants in Common Lisp
We present a new approach to dialogue specification for Virtual Personal Assistants (VPAs) based on so-called dialogue workflow graphs. Our approach relies on Semantic Web technology (OWL), implemented in Common Lisp with the help of the Racer reasoner.

Enhancement of sensitivity and quantification quality in the LC-MS/MS measurement of large biomolecules with sum of MRM (SMRM)
We describe here an approach to boost detection sensitivity and expand dynamic range in the quantitation of large molecules while maintaining analytical specificity using summation of MRM (SMRM) transitions and LC separation technique.
