    Thermal equivalence of DNA duplexes without calculation of melting temperature

    The common key to nearly all processes involving DNA is the hybridization and melting of the double helix: from transmission of genetic information and RNA transcription, to polymerase chain reaction and DNA m...

    Domain Specific High-Level Constraints for User Interface Layout

    We present the Auckland Layout Model (ALM), a constraint-based technique for specifying 2D layout as it is used for arranging the controls in a graphical user interface (GUI). Most GUI frameworks offer layout ...

    Probing the microscopic flexibility of DNA from melting temperatures

    The microscopic flexibility of DNA is a key ingredient for understanding its interaction with proteins and drugs but is still poorly understood and technically challenging to measure. Several experimental meth...

    Near-Field Scanning Optical Images of Bacteria

    Near field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) and spectroscopy techniques were used to study the shape and the cell membrane details in bacteria. We present transmission and topo-graphic images for the bacteriaPs...

    Origin of multiple periodicities in the Fourier power spectra of the Plasmodium falciparum genome

    Fourier transforms and their associated power spectra are used for detecting periodicities and protein-coding genes and is generally regarded as a well established technique. Many of the periodicities which ha...

    A memory-optimal many-to-many semi-stream join

    Semi-stream join algorithms join a fast stream input with a disk-based master data relation. A common class of these algorithms is derived from hash joins: they use the stream as build input for a main hash ta...

    Optical and theoretical study of strand recognition by nucleic acid probes

    Detection of nucleic acids is crucial to the study of their basic properties and consequently to applying this knowledge to the determination of pathologies such as cancer. In this work, our goal is to determi...
