Bioinformatics Algorithms demonstrations in Excel

Descripción

This project presents demonstrations of selected computer science algorithms important in bioinformatics, implemented in the spreadsheet program Microsoft Excel. Spreadsheets provide an interesting platform for demonstration of algorithms, since various steps of the calculations can be exposed in a manner that is easily comprehensible to users with little programming experience. The algorithms demonstrated include two approaches to approximate string matching (dynamic programming and Shift-AND numeric approximate matching), Hierarchical Clustering (used in phylogenetic studies and microarray analysis of gene expression), a Naive Bayes Classifier for simulated microarray gene expression data, and a simple Neural Network. These demonstrations are designed to serve as instructional aids in...

The Practical OPNET User Guide for Computer Network Simulation

Modelación y Simulación de Redes de Comunicaciones

Descripción

Teachers of networking courses in universities constantly look for various new active learning tools for engaging students in classroom discussion, providing stu- dents with hands-on experiences, and getting students to become more interested in the subject area. OPNET software constitutes an excellent active learning tool that may help teachers achieve all these goals. In particular, OPNET software allows teachers to study and evaluate diverse networking systems with as simple or as complex topology as needed, illustrate various networking concepts, and show the students how the network performance changes under different conditions. It is no wonder that more than 500 universities worldwide* currently use OPNET network simulation software in teachin...

Engineering Fundamentals of the Internal Combustion Engine

Descripción

This book was written to be used as an applied thermoscience textbook in a one semester, college-level, undergraduate engineering course on internal combustion engines. It provides the material needed for a basic understanding of the operation of internal combustion engines. Students are assumed to have knowledge of fundamental thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics as a prerequisite to get maximum benefit from the text. This book can also be used for self-study and/or as a reference book in the field of engines....

Advanced Analytics with Spark

Advanced Analytics with Spark

Descripción

In this practical book, four Cloudera data scientists present a set of self- contained patterns for performing large-scale data analysis with Spark. The authors bring Spark, statistical methods, and real-world data sets together to teach you how to approach analytics problems by example. You’ll start with an introduction to Spark and its ecosystem, and then dive into patterns that apply common techniques—classification, collaborative filtering, and anomaly detection, among others—to fields such as genomics, security, and finance. If you have an entry-level understanding of machine learning and statistics, and you program in Java, Python, or Scala, you’ll find these patterns useful for working on your own data applications....
