A Declarative Approach to Hardening Services Against QoS Vulnerabilities
(IEEE, 2011)The Quality of Service (QoS) in a distributed service-oriented application can be negatively affected by a variety of factors. Network volatility, hostile exploits, poor service management, all can prevent a service-oriented ... -
A Modest Proposal for Open Market Risk Assessment to Solve the Cyber-Security Problem
(Virginia Tech, 2016-04-29)We introduce a model for a market based economic system of cyber-risk valuation to correct fundamental problems of incentives within the information technology and information processing industries. We assess the makeup ... -
A Simulation Optimization Approach to Epidemic Forecasting
(PLOS, 2013-06-27)Reliable forecasts of influenza can aid in the control of both seasonal and pandemic outbreaks. We introduce a simulation optimization (SIMOP) approach for forecasting the influenza epidemic curve. This study represents ... -
A systematic review of studies on forecasting the dynamics of influenza outbreaks
(Wiley, 2013-12-23)Forecasting the dynamics of influenza outbreaks could be useful for decision-making regarding the allocation of public health resources. Reliable forecasts could also aid in the selection and implementation of interventions ... -
The Abridgment and Relaxation Time for a Linear Multi-Scale Model Based on Multiple Site Phosphorylation
(PLOS, 2015-08-11)Random effect in cellular systems is an important topic in systems biology and often simulated with Gillespie’s stochastic simulation algorithm (SSA). Abridgment refers to model reduction that approximates a group of ... -
Analysis and remedy of negativity problem in hybrid stochastic simulation algorithm and its application
(2019-06-20)Abstract Background The hybrid stochastic simulation algorithm, proposed by Haseltine and Rawlings (HR), is a combination of differential equations for traditional deterministic ... -
Apigenin Impacts the Growth of the Gut Microbiota and Alters the Gene Expression of Enterococcus
(MDPI, 2017-08-03)Apigenin is a major dietary flavonoid with many bioactivities, widely distributed in plants. Apigenin reaches the colon region intact and interacts there with the human gut microbiota, however there is little research on ... -
Application of approximate matrix factorization to high order linearly implicit Runge-Kutta methods
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2015-10-01) -
Applications and Security of Next-Generation, User-Centric Wireless Systems
(MDPI, 2010-07-28)Pervasive wireless systems have significantly improved end-users quality of life. As manufacturing costs decrease, communications bandwidth increases, and contextual information is made more readily available, the role of ... -
Approximate Exponential Algorithms to Solve the Chemical Master Equation
(Vilnius Gediminas Tech Univ, 2015-05-04) -
An Atlas of the Speed of Copy Number Changes in Animal Gene Families and Its Implications
(PLOS, 2009-10-23)The notion that gene duplications generating new genes and functions is commonly accepted in evolutionary biology. However, this assumption is more speculative from theory rather than well proven in genome-wide studies. ... -
Automatic layout and visualization of biclusters
(2006-09-04)Background Biclustering has emerged as a powerful algorithmic tool for analyzing measurements of gene expression. A number of different methods have emerged for computing biclusters in gene expression data. Many of these ... -
AVIST: A GPU-Centric Design for Visual Exploration of Large Multidimensional Datasets
(MDPI, 2016-10-07)This paper presents the Animated VISualization Tool (AVIST), an exploration-oriented data visualization tool that enables rapidly exploring and filtering large time series multidimensional datasets. AVIST highlights ... -
Bare-hand volume cracker for raw volume data analysis

BSML: A Binding Schema Markup Language for Data Interchange in Problem Solving Environments
(Hindawi, 2003-01-01)We describe a binding schema markup language (BSML) for describing data interchange between scientific codes. Such a facility is an important constituent of scientific problem solving environments (PSEs). BSML is designed ... -
Burst of Young Retrogenes and Independent Retrogene Formation in Mammals
(PLOS, 2009-03-27)Retroposition and retrogenes gain increasing attention as recent studies show that they play an important role in human new gene formation. Here we examined the patterns of retrogene distribution in 8 mammalian genomes ... -
CAGm: A repository of germline microsatellite variations in the 1000 genomes project
(Oxford University Press, 2019-01-08)The human genome harbors an abundance of repetitive DNA; however, its function continues to be debated. Microsatellites-a class of short tandem repeat-are established as an important source of genetic variation. Array ...
