The comprehensive annotation of non-coding RNAs in newly sequenced genomes is still a largely unsolved problem because many functional RNAs exhibit not only poorly conserved sequen...
Given a set D = {d1, d2, ..., dD} of D strings of total length n, our task is to report the "most relevant" strings for a given query pattern P. This involves somewhat mo...
This paper explains how the high-level treatment of datatypes in functional languages--using features like constructor functions and pattern matching--can be made to coexist with ...
