  • Comprehensive support for developing graphical highly interactive user interface systems

    Creator:
    Keh, Huan-chao
    Abstract:
    The general problem of application development of interactive GUI applications has been addressed by toolkits, libraries, user interface management systems, and more recently domain-specific application frameworks.

  • A browser-based tool for designing query interfaces to scientific databases

    Creator:
    Newsome, Mark Ronald, 1960-
    Abstract:
    Scientists in the biological sciences need to retrieve information from a variety of data collections, traditionally maintained in SQL databases, in order to conduct research. Because current assistant tools are designed primarily for business and financial users, scientists have been forced to use the notoriously difficult command-line SQL interface, supplied...

  • Walking tree methods for biological string matching

    Creator:
    Hsu, Tai C.
    Abstract:
    Approximate string matching is commonly used to align genetic sequences (DNA or RNA) to determine their shared characteristics. In contrast with the standard dynamic programming methods which use local edit distance models, the Walking Tree heuristic method was created to handle non-local changes, e.g., translocations, inversions, and duplications, altogether and...

  • Interactive vs. non-interactive electronically delivered motivational materials for physical activity initiation and enhancement among adults with physical disabilities

    Creator:
    Kosma, Maria
    Abstract:
    Participation in physical activity has important health benefits among individuals with disabilities, whereas inactive lifestyles may lead to secondary limiting health conditions. However, few people with disabilities regularly participate in the recommended amount of health-related physical activities. Low rate of participation may be related to low motivation due to interconnected...
