The spatial join operation is benchmarked using variants of well-known spatial data structures such as the R-tree, R-tree, R+-tree, and the PMR quadtree. The focus is on a spatia...
Background: Regions of interest identified through genetic linkage studies regularly exceed 30 centimorgans in size and can contain hundreds of genes. Traditionally this number is...

Background: The inference of a genetic network is a problem in which mutual interactions among genes are deduced using time-series of gene expression patterns. While a number of m...
Background: The invariant lineage of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has potential as a powerful tool for the description of mutant phenotypes and gene expression patterns. We...

In this paper, we consider an M/M/k queueing system with setup costs. Servers are turned off when there is no work to do, but turning on an off server incurs a setup cost. The s...
