Current Trends for Blockchain and Smart Contracts (In Financial Services)
No full textThe most popular virtual currency (bitcoin) has become so popular because it relies on the concept of Distributed Ledger, realized by means of a technology known as BlockChain. This technology removes the need for third parties (such as authorities) that authorize transactions; in fact, it is a peer-to-peer network where consensus to transactions is given by peers. Furthermore, the distributed nature of BlockChain ensures a high-level of robustness to attacks. However, since its birth (a decade ago) many evolutions have been introduced: now, we distinguish between permissionless and permissioned BlockChains, the concept of smart contract is now supported, and various platforms are available. The contribution of this paper is to provide novices with the current trends, in particular by discussing the adoption of BlockChain technology in financial services

Discovery of new therapeutic targets by the informational spectrum method
No full textThe field of bioinformatics has become a major part of the drug discovery pipeline playing a key role in improvement and acceleration of this time and money consuming process. Here we review the application of the informational spectrum method (ISM), a virtual spectroscopy method for structure/function analysis of proteins, in identification of functional protein domains representing candidate therapeutic targets for drugs against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1, anthrax, highly pathogenic influenza virus H5N1 and cardiovascular diseases
