The growth of public DNA sequence and metagenomic data over the last two decades has been exponential. Bioinformatics researchers are confronted with analysis of massive data sets, while the problem is still growing at an alarming rate in the near future. In this paper, we integrate many open source software tools in biological sequences analysis to construct an effective cloud-based microbial metagenomics...
This paper proposes an interactive English vocabulary learning system that is geared to individual student's vocabulary learning objectives and vocabulary ability. The system uses a word's rank in the word frequency list as its absolute difficulty level - a higher rank in the list means it is a more common word and therefore should be learned first. The system lowers or raises the difficulty level...
Protein structures are essential for correct biological functions because similar structures between proteins allow molecular recognition. Identifying similar structures between proteins provide the opportunity to recognize homology that is undetectable by sequence comparison. Thus comparison and alignment of protein structures represents a powerful means of discovering functions, yielding direct...
When people browse the learning materials on a Web site, the sequence of content they browse might not have any particular relations. Therefore, the proposed research tries to build an intelligent agent for discovering a specific learner's interests in different knowledge fields dynamically, instead of finding the sequence of content he browses. Naive Bayesian classifier (NBC for short) is used as...
Supply chain management (GSCM) making the interactions between applications much easier, but the service delay and unstable network will block the whole business process. Replicated services are a good choice to resolve this problem. The transparency of information become increasingly important in the GSCM as a result of using caching, middleware and distributed database replication etc. technologies...
