Engineering life: Building a FAB for biology

Article Abstract:

Standardization of methods and components in biological engineering that could give rise to design libraries of compatible parts and make outsourcing of fabrication possible is described. Biological engineers could benefit from methods that made very large scale integrated (VLSI) electronics practical for the semiconductor industry to conceive and build sophisticated devices from biological parts.

Hydraulic engineering in prehistoric Mexico

Article Abstract:

A tropical climate made the fertile valleys of prehistoric farmers of southern Mexico nearly ideal for planting but was limited with dry weather during one half of the year. To overcome this impediment to year-round cultivation, they developed a network of canals in the Tehuacan Valley and in the Valley of Oaxaca, terraced gardens irrigated from canals atop the retaining walls.
