The study of macromolecular protein structures at an atomic resolution is the source of many data and compute intensive challenges, from simulation, to image processing, to model building. We have developed a general platform for the secure deployment of structural biology computational tasks and workflows into a federated grid which maximizes robustness, ease of use, and performance, while minimizing...
We present a model for supporting scoping decisions that is based on an analysis of the ROI for a given feature. Employing a ROI threshold value for making scoping decisions, the utility of the model was investigated using data from a single large project and identified a group of outlying features responsible for a disproportionate wasted investment. These initial results are promising and indicate...
Modeling plant growth is a hot topic in computer graphics and agronomic communities, with the goal to understand the biological processes involved in the function and growth of plants. Several models and software tools have been developed by researchers from different areas for this aim, but due to the different goals and background of the research teams, these models have been developed in different...
Geological plotting is the bridge and link between three-dimensional model of deposits and the actual engineering design. Automatic plotting and file plotting of Surpac are introduced, combined with the advantages of both, complex geologic mapping process based on secondary development of Surpac is studied. Combined with the actual needs of Fankou Lead-Zinc Mine closely, on the base of creating the...
Building on the extensive research in Virtual Reality (VR), we are proposing a new dynamic prototype for modelling and simulating carbon emissions in a virtual village called VIRVIL. VIRVIL is a simulated settlement for the assessment of the impact of low and zero carbon technologies and measures in the built environment. The prototype will focus on the impact on the community as a whole, as well...
