Proteome Analyst - Transparent High-throughput Protein Annotation: Function, Localization and Custom Predictors
Download2003
Lu, Z., Eisner, Roman, Lu, Paul, Macdonell, Cam, Szafron, Duane, Greiner, Russell, Poulin, B., Wishart, David, Anvik, J., Habibi-Nazhad, B.
Technical report TR03-05. Modern sequencing technology now permits the sequencing of entire genomes, leading to thousands of new gene sequences in need of detailed annotation. It is too time consuming to predict the properties of each protein sequence manually and to organize the results of many...

Szafron, Duane, Ozsu, M. Tamer, Li, John
Technical report TR95-25. Declarative query languages are an important feature of database management systems and have played an important role in their success. As database management technology enters the multimedia information system area, the availability of special-purpose query languages...

Cutumisu, M., McNaughton, M., Parker, D., Schaeffer, Jonathan, Redford, J., Szafron, Duane
Technical report TR04-05. Recently, some researchers have argued that generative design patterns (GDPs) can leverage the obvious design re-use that characterizes traditional design patterns into code re-use. This paper provides additional evidence that GDPs are both useful and productive. ...

Szafron, Duane, Li, John, Ozsu, M. Tamer
Technical report TR96-05. In this paper we consider various spatial relationships that are of general interest for retrieving data from multimedia databases. We present a unified representation of spatial objects for both topological and directional relations. Such a representation is based on...

Schaeffer, Jonathan, Lobe, Greg, Parsons, Ian, Szafron, Duane, Melax, Stan, Smith, Carol, Lu, Paul
Technical report TR92-20. Workstations have been in use for more than a decade now. Although a network of workstations represents a large amount of aggregate computing power, there is a need for software that can harness this power for single, distributed applications. Enterprise is an...

1998
Leontiev, Yuri, Ozsu, M. Tamer, Szafron, Duane
Technical report TR98-01. In this paper we present a type system that combines inclusion and parametric polymorphism with behaviors (multi-methods) and precise function typing. Type declarations allow user-definable variance specification of type parameters and user-definable subtyping between...

1994
Ozsu, M. Tamer, Tansel, Abdullah, Vittal, Chiradeep
Technical report TR94-16. We describe the design of a multimedia database for a distributed news-on-demand multimedia information system. News-on-demand is an application that utilizes broadband network services to deliver news articles to subscribers in the form of multimedia documents. ...

Peters, Randal J., Ozsu, M. Tamer, Szafron, Duane, Lipka, Anna
Technical report TR93-01. The establishment of a formal object model provides a theoretical foundation to investigate other objectbase features such as query processing. In this report, we present an extensible uniform behavioral object query model for the TIGUKAT(*) object management system. ...

Peters, Randal J., Szafron, Duane, Ozsu, M. Tamer
Technical report TR92-14. Object-oriented computing is influencing many areas of computer science including software engineering, user interfaces, operating systems, programming languages and database systems. The appeal of object-orientation is attributed to its higher levels of abstraction for...
