ParCo2007 marks a quarter of a century of the international conferences on parallel computing that started in Berlin in 1983. The aim of the conference is to give an overview of the state-of-the-art of the developments, applications and future trends in high performance computing for all platforms. The conference addresses all aspects of...

New sequencing technologies have broken many experimental barriers to genome scale sequencing, leading to the extraction of huge quantities of sequence data. This expansion of biological databases established the need for new ways to harness and apply the astounding amount of available genomic information and convert it into substantive...

We have been very pleased, beyond our expectations, with the reception of the first edition of this book. Bioinformatics, however, continues to evolve very rapidly, hence the need for a new edition. In the past three years, fullgenome sequencing has blossomed with the completion of the sequence of the fly and the first draft of the...

We received a lot of excellent paper submissions which were peer-reviewed by an international...

This book is the revised and extended version of a Pfr.D. dissertation submitted to the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, University of California at Berkeley. Many of the ideas presented in this book have their roots in discussions with Eugene Wong, my mentor and thesis advisor. I would like to thank Gene...

The present volume is dedicated to aspects of algorithmic work in bioinformat ics and computational biology with an emphasis on string algorithms that play a central role in the analysis of biological sequences. The papers included are a selection of articles corresponding to talks given at one of two meetings spon sored by The Royal...

Examine several methods of testing for genetically modified organisms and the reasons behind their strict regulation!

Testing of Genetically Modified Organisms in Foods is the first study of the screening methods and tools utilized for determining the presence of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in food products. Leading...
