In this paper, we discuss and compare two user centred methods applied in concept design: observation and probes. The comparison is based on findings from two case studies. In the...
Background: Empirical scoring functions have proven useful in protein structure modeling. Most such scoring functions depend on protein side chain conformations. However, backbone...
In this paper we consider the problem of answering queries using views, with or without ontological constraints, which is important for data integration, query optimization, and d...
Complex arithmetic computations, especially if derived from bit-level software descriptions, can be very inefficient if implemented directly in hardware (e.g., by translation of t...
— Previous results show that a node’s throughput scales poorly as the network size increases when every node has traffic. However, in many cases, only a fraction of nodes in l...
