— Accurate query performance prediction (QPP) is central to effective resource management, query optimization and query scheduling. Analytical cost models, used in current genera...
Background: The functional sites of a protein present important information for determining its cellular function and are fundamental in drug design. Accordingly, accurate methods...
Background: Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are single pass reads from randomly selected cDNA clones. They provide a highly cost-effective method to access and identify expressed g...
