Temporal Control feedback from todays session:
2) If no data exists - say that as the wiki is being frozen we haven't added the data but will have it in time for the Jamboree.
3) Have a rationale section.
4) Add what teams can reuse from this module.
tianyi : Engineering Approach to Temporal Control kinda sums up 3 and 4
5) Have a conclusion of the page at the end - couple of lines.
6) Link to the relevant Wet Lab section

Module Integration
Engineering Approach to Module Integration by Temporal Control
This temporal control platform showcases our engineering approach in the E.ncapsulator project. It allows us to integrate all our modules in a simple and elegant way, eliminating the need for complicated control.
We’ve made our entire system modular. Each module can essentially be pictured as a blackbox with one temporal control input and one output. Therefore, each module is linked to the next module by temporal control. Temporal control has allowed us to create a system that can be reused in other projects in synthetic biology. It is in fact a novel engineering approach that is extremely reusable in synthetic biology.
In our cases, the black boxes have been filled up by Module 1: Protein Production, Module 2: Encapsulation and Module 3: Encapsulation.
Timeline of Temporal Control
This timeline shows the sequence of occurrence of these events:
About the timeline and its explainations, and to view our testing construct.
Conclusion
Module integration has allowed us to link all our modules together, to create a working network.
It also allows us to showcase the advantages of synthetic biology as the marriage of engineering with biology. By integrating the engineering principles of reusability and simplicity of system, we have developed this platform to program biologcal systems.
