In a number of programs for gene structure prediction in higher eukaryotic genomic sequences, exon prediction is decoupled from gene assembly: a large pool of candidate exons is predicted and scored from features located in the query DNA sequence, and candidate genes are assembled from such a pool as sequences of nonoverlapping frame-compatible exons. Genes are scored as a function of the scores of the assembled exons, and the highest scoring candidate gene is assumed to be the most likely gene encoded by the query DNA sequence. Considering additive gene scoring functions, currently available algorithms to determine such a highest scoring candidate gene run in time proportional to the square of the number of predicted exons. Here, we present an algorithm whose running time grows only linearly with the size of the set of predicted exons. Polynomial algorithms rely on the fact that, while scanning the set of predicted exons, the highest scoring gene ending in a given exon can be obtained by appending the exon to the highest scoring among the highest scoring genes ending at each compatible preceding exon. The algorithm here relies on the simple fact that such highest scoring gene can be stored and updated. This requires scanning the set of predicted exons simultaneously by increasing acceptor and donor position. On the other hand, the algorithm described here does not assume an underlying gene structure model. Indeed, the definition of valid gene structures is externally defined in the so-called Gene Model. The Gene Model specifies simply which gene features are allowed immediately upstream which other gene features in valid gene structures. This allows for great flexibility in formulating the gene identification problem. In particular it allows for multiple-gene two-strand predictions and for considering gene features other than coding exons (such as promoter elements) in valid gene structures.

This paper introduces the approach of using Total Unduplicated Reach and Frequency analysis (TURF) to design a product line through a binary linear programming model. This improves the efficiency of the search for the solution to the problem compared to the algorithms that have been used to date. The results obtained through our exact algorithm are presented, and this method shows to be extremely efficient both in obtaining optimal solutions and in computing time for very large instances of the problem at hand. Furthermore, the proposed technique enables the model to be improved in order to overcome the main drawbacks presented by TURF analysis in practice.

En aquest món on ens ha tocat viure i patir canvis tan durs amb la crisi econòmica que patim, que ens ha fet passar de lligar els gossos amb llonganisses a vigilar en les despeses del dia a dia per poder arribar just a final de mes, és el moment de reinventar-se. És per aquest motiu que presento aquesta idea, on el seu objectiu és desenvolupar una pàgina web que esdevingui un punt de trobada entre usuaris que volen transmetre o ampliar el seu coneixement i oferir-los la possibilitat que entre ells puguin compartir les seves habilitats i destreses. El web consistirà en un panell d’activitats on els usuaris un cop s’hagin registrat puguin crear les activitats que vulguin aprendre o bé ensenyar, tot demanant, si ho desitgen, quelcom a canvi. Aleshores la resta d’usuaris si els interessa l’activitat, poden acceptar la demanda o bé fer una proposta pròpia. A partir d’aquí els usuaris s’han de posar d’acord a l’hora de dur a terme l’activitat. El web disposarà d’una part pels usuaris amb permisos d’administrador perquè puguin gestionar el portal. Aquest projecte s’ha desenvolupat amb el framework de PHP Codeigniter, el qual utilitza la programació per capes MVC, la qual separa la programació en tres parts: el Model, la Vista i el Controlador. També s’han utilitzat els llenguatges HTML5 i CSS3, i jQuery, que és una llibreria de JavaScript. Com a sistema gestor de base de dades s’ha utilitzat el MySQL.

High altitude constitutes an exciting natural laboratory for medical research. While initially, the aim of high-altitude research was to understand the adaptation of the organism to hypoxia and find treatments for altitude-related diseases, over the past decade or so, the scope of this research has broadened considerably. Two important observations led to the foundation for the broadening of the scientific scope of high-altitude research. First, high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) represents a unique model which allows studying fundamental mechanisms of pulmonary hypertension and lung edema in humans. Secondly, the ambient hypoxia associated with high-altitude exposure facilitates the detection of pulmonary and systemic vascular dysfunction at an early stage. Here, we review studies that, by capitalizing on these observations, have led to the description of novel mechanisms underpinning lung edema and pulmonary hypertension and to the first direct demonstration of fetal programming of vascular dysfunction in humans.

The main objective of this master's thesis is to study robot programming using simulation software, and also how to embed the simulation software into company's own robot controlling software. The further goal is to study a new communication interface to the assembly line's components -more precisely how to connect the robot cell into this new communication system. Conveyor lines are already available where the conveyors use the new communication standard. The robot cell is not yet capable of communicating with to other devices using the new communication protocols. The main problem among robot manufacturers is that they all have their own communication systems and programming languages. There has not been any common programming language to program all the different robot manufacturers robots, until the RRS (Realistic Robot Simulation) standards were developed. The RRS - II makes it possible to create the robot programs in the simulation software and it gives a common user interface for different robot manufacturers robots. This thesis will present the RRS - II standard and the robot manufacturers situation for the RRS - II support. Thesis presents how the simulation software can be embedded into company's own robot controlling software and also how the robot cell can be connected to the CAMX (Computer Aided Manufacturing using XML) communication system.

Ce mémoire vise à recenser les avantages et les inconvénients de l'utilisation du langage de programmation fonctionnel dynamique Scheme pour le développement de jeux vidéo. Pour ce faire, la méthode utilisée est d'abord basée sur une approche plus théorique. En effet, une étude des besoins au niveau de la programmation exprimés par ce type de développement, ainsi qu'une description détaillant les fonctionnalités du langage Scheme pertinentes au développement de jeux vidéo sont données afin de bien mettre en contexte le sujet. Par la suite, une approche pratique est utilisée en effectuant le développement de deux jeux vidéo de complexités croissantes: Space Invaders et Lode Runner. Le développement de ces jeux vidéo a mené à l'extension du langage Scheme par plusieurs langages spécifiques au domaine et bibliothèques, dont notamment un système de programmation orienté objets et un système de coroutines. L'expérience acquise par le développement de ces jeux est finalement comparée à celle d'autres développeurs de jeux vidéo de l'industrie qui ont utilisé Scheme pour la création de titres commerciaux. En résumé, l'utilisation de ce langage a permis d'atteindre un haut niveau d'abstraction favorisant la modularité des jeux développés sans affecter les performances de ces derniers.

Ce mémoire présente une implantation de la création paresseuse de tâches desti- née à des systèmes multiprocesseurs à mémoire distribuée. Elle offre un sous-ensemble des fonctionnalités du Message-Passing Interface et permet de paralléliser certains problèmes qui se partitionnent difficilement de manière statique grâce à un système de partitionnement dynamique et de balancement de charge. Pour ce faire, il se base sur le langage Multilisp, un dialecte de Scheme orienté vers le traitement parallèle, et implante sur ce dernier une interface semblable à MPI permettant le calcul distribué multipro- cessus. Ce système offre un langage beaucoup plus riche et expressif que le C et réduit considérablement le travail nécessaire au programmeur pour pouvoir développer des programmes équivalents à ceux en MPI. Enfin, le partitionnement dynamique permet de concevoir des programmes qui seraient très complexes à réaliser sur MPI. Des tests ont été effectués sur un système local à 16 processeurs et une grappe à 16 processeurs et il offre de bonnes accélérations en comparaison à des programmes séquentiels équiva- lents ainsi que des performances acceptables par rapport à MPI. Ce mémoire démontre que l’usage des futures comme technique de partitionnement dynamique est faisable sur des multiprocesseurs à mémoire distribuée.

Genetic programming is known to provide good solutions for many problems like the evolution of network protocols and distributed algorithms. In such cases it is most likely a hardwired module of a design framework that assists the engineer to optimize specific aspects of the system to be developed. It provides its results in a fixed format through an internal interface. In this paper we show how the utility of genetic programming can be increased remarkably by isolating it as a component and integrating it into the model-driven software development process. Our genetic programming framework produces XMI-encoded UML models that can easily be loaded into widely available modeling tools which in turn posses code generation as well as additional analysis and test capabilities. We use the evolution of a distributed election algorithm as an example to illustrate how genetic programming can be combined with model-driven development. This example clearly illustrates the advantages of our approach – the generation of source code in different programming languages.

Distributed systems are one of the most vital components of the economy. The most prominent example is probably the internet, a constituent element of our knowledge society. During the recent years, the number of novel network types has steadily increased. Amongst others, sensor networks, distributed systems composed of tiny computational devices with scarce resources, have emerged. The further development and heterogeneous connection of such systems imposes new requirements on the software development process. Mobile and wireless networks, for instance, have to organize themselves autonomously and must be able to react to changes in the environment and to failing nodes alike. Researching new approaches for the design of distributed algorithms may lead to methods with which these requirements can be met efficiently. In this thesis, one such method is developed, tested, and discussed in respect of its practical utility. Our new design approach for distributed algorithms is based on Genetic Programming, a member of the family of evolutionary algorithms. Evolutionary algorithms are metaheuristic optimization methods which copy principles from natural evolution. They use a population of solution candidates which they try to refine step by step in order to attain optimal values for predefined objective functions. The synthesis of an algorithm with our approach starts with an analysis step in which the wanted global behavior of the distributed system is specified. From this specification, objective functions are derived which steer a Genetic Programming process where the solution candidates are distributed programs. The objective functions rate how close these programs approximate the goal behavior in multiple randomized network simulations. The evolutionary process step by step selects the most promising solution candidates and modifies and combines them with mutation and crossover operators. This way, a description of the global behavior of a distributed system is translated automatically to programs which, if executed locally on the nodes of the system, exhibit this behavior. In our work, we test six different ways for representing distributed programs, comprising adaptations and extensions of well-known Genetic Programming methods (SGP, eSGP, and LGP), one bio-inspired approach (Fraglets), and two new program representations called Rule-based Genetic Programming (RBGP, eRBGP) designed by us. We breed programs in these representations for three well-known example problems in distributed systems: election algorithms, the distributed mutual exclusion at a critical section, and the distributed computation of the greatest common divisor of a set of numbers. Synthesizing distributed programs the evolutionary way does not necessarily lead to the envisaged results. In a detailed analysis, we discuss the problematic features which make this form of Genetic Programming particularly hard. The two Rule-based Genetic Programming approaches have been developed especially in order to mitigate these difficulties. In our experiments, at least one of them (eRBGP) turned out to be a very efficient approach and in most cases, was superior to the other representations.

This paper presents the use of a mobile robot platform as an innovative educational tool in order to promote and integrate different curriculum knowledge. Hence, it is presented the acquired experience within a summer course named ldquoapplied mobile roboticsrdquo. The main aim of the course is to integrate different subjects as electronics, programming, architecture, perception systems, communications, control and trajectory planning by using the educational open mobile robot platform PRIM. The summer course is addressed to a wide range of student profiles. However, it is of special interests to the students of electrical and computer engineering around their final academic year. The summer course consists of the theoretical and laboratory sessions, related to the following topics: design & programming of electronic devices, modelling and control systems, trajectory planning and control, and computer vision systems. Therefore, the clues for achieving a renewed path of progress in robotics are the integration of several knowledgeable fields, such as computing, communications, and control sciences, in order to perform a higher level reasoning and use decision tools with strong theoretical base

La información y los datos genéticos que emanan hoy de las investigaciones del genoma humano demandan el desarrollo de herramientas informáticas capaces de procesar la gran cantidad de información disponible. La mayor cantidad de datos genéticos es el resultado de equipos que realizan el análisis simultáneo de cientos o miles de polimorfismos o variaciones genéticas, de nuevas técnicas de laboratorio de mayor rendimiento que, en conjunto, ofrecen una mayor disponibilidad de información en un corto espacio de tiempo. Esta problemática conduce a la necesidad de desarrollar nuevas herramientas informáticas capaces de lidiar con este mayor volumen de datos genéticos. En el caso de la genética de poblaciones, a pesar de que existen herramientas informáticas que permiten procesar y facilitar el análisis de los datos, estas tienen limitaciones como la falta de conocimiento de los usuarios de algunos lenguajes de programación para alimentar la información y otras herramientas informáticas no realizan todas las estimaciones que se requieren y otros presentan limitaciones en cuanto al número de datos que pueden incorporar o manejar. En algunos casos hay redundancia al tener que usarse dos o más herramientas para poder procesar un conjunto de datos de información genética. El presente trabajo tiene por objetivo el desarrollo de una herramienta informática basada en aplicaciones de computador comunes, en este caso Microsoft Excel® y que resuelva todos los problemas y las limitaciones descritas antes. El desarrollo del conjunto de subprogramas que constituyen a Lustro; permiten superar lo anterior, presentar los resultados en un ambiente sencillo, conocido y fácil de operar, simplificando de esta forma el proceso de adaptación del usuario del programa, sin entrenamiento previo, obteniéndose en corto tiempo el procesamiento de la información genética de interés.
