Background: Many algorithms exist for protein structural alignment, based on internal protein coordinates or on explicit superposition of the structures. These methods are usually...
Background: Macromolecular visualization as well as automated structural and functional annotation tools play an increasingly important role in the post-genomic era, contributing ...
Appropriate selection of the kernel function, which implicitly defines the feature space of an algorithm, has a crucial role in the success of kernel methods. In this paper, we co...
We propose a programming paradigm called compress-and-conquer (CC) that leads to optimal performance on multicore platforms. Given a multicore system of p cores and a problem of s...
Most programming languages support a call stack in the programming model and also in the runtime system. We show that for applications targeting low-power embedded microcontroller...
