  • Personalized information management systems with tutorial capabilities

    Creator:
    Oman, Paul W.
    Abstract:
    Technological advances of the last three decades have caused an enormous increase in the amount of published and unpublished information generated by our society. This inflation has created the need for improved information management systems. Existing systems are inadequate primarily because they are discipline-oriented and lack the flexibility that is...

  • A tool for visualizing sequence alignments and associating annotations

    Creator:
    Zhang, Wenpeng
    Abstract:
    Alignment of genomic sequences from different species is becoming an increasingly powerful method in biology, and is being used for many purposes. The result of sequence alignments is a list of pairs of matched locations between the pattern string and the text string. However, without any proper visualization tools to...

  • Drawing graphs nicely

    Creator:
    Palmer, Paul A.
    Abstract:
    A graph may he drawn in many different ways. We investigate how to draw a graph nicely, in the sense of being visually pleasing. We discuss the history of this field, and look at several algorithms for drawing graphs. For planar graphs this problem has been algorithmically solved: that is,...

  • Description and comments on a matrix algebraic method for the determination of isomorphism in pairs of undirected graphs

    Creator:
    Fogg, Ka-Hung
    Abstract:
    This paper describes an investigation of a matrix algebraic method to determine isomorphism in pairs of undirected graphs. The method is described in some detail. The theoretical as well as the practical difficulties are given. It is shown that the method works for some cases. When the adjacency matrix of...

  • A laboratory station timetable problem

    Creator:
    Mickelsen, Thomas E.
    Abstract:
    The general problem of classroom scheduling is well known to be NP-complete. A typical classroom scheduling problem is that of assigning students to a limited number of pieces of laboratory equipment. Frequently several identical pieces of equipment are available only at fixed hours and have limited access due to physical...

  • An algebraic view of the symmetry of fast transforms

    Creator:
    Ruby, Glenn Russell
    Abstract:
    Why are the fast Fourier transform and the fast Hadamard transform fast? A transform can be computed by multiplying a matrix times a vector, which normally requires 0(n²) operations. The matrices corresponding to these transforms can be rearranged to eliminate redundant computations resulting in O(nlogn) operations. We investigate algebraic reasons...

  • The FLEX/REFLEX paradigm and its application to computer program systems

    Creator:
    Colby, Jonathan Axford
    Abstract:
    The FLEX/REFLEX paradigm is applied to the description of a computer program system. The paradigm is shown to be relevant and appropriate to computer program systems and to advantageously display and structure the general hierarchical characteristics of computer program systems. Program systems characterized in the paradigm are described both holistically...

  • A fast algorithm for determining the primitivity of an n x n nonnegative matrix

    Creator:
    Leegard, Amanda D.
    Abstract:
    Nonnegative matrices have a myriad of applications in the biological, social, and physical genres. Of particular importance are the primitive matrices. A nonnegative matrix, M, is primitive exactly when there is a positive integer, k, such that M[superscript k] has only positive entries; that is, all the entries in M[superscript...

  • An alternative architecture for performing basic computer arithmetical operations

    Creator:
    Djang, Kevin
    Abstract:
    The arithmetic portions of almost all modern processor architectures are of very similar design. We use the term "traditional" to describe this design, the primary characteristics of which are native support for integer and floating-point number types and special disjoint instructions and hardware for each supported type. Decades of refinement...
