Base Qualities Help Sequencing Software

Base qualities help sequencing software.

With the complete sequencing of the human genome under way and the sequencing of complete microorganism genomes becoming commonplace, we have truly entered the era of large-scale DNA sequencing. Why now? As in some other data-rich areas of modern biology, for example, protein structure determination, it can be argued that the ratelimiting factors in increasing efficiency and throughput have bee...

Variability for Qualities in Software Architecture

Variability is a key factor of most systems. While there are many works covering variability in functionality, there is a research gap regarding variability in software qualities. There is an obvious imbalance between the importance of variability in the context of quality attributes, and the intensity of research in this area. To improve this situation, the First International Workshop on VAri...

Sensory Qualities, Sensible Qualities, Sensational Qualities

In theorizing about perception, philosophers have often multiplied qualities. To perceptible qualities of external objects, like colors and shapes (‘sensible’ qualities), have been added qualities of experiences (‘sensory’ qualities) or of sense-data (‘sensational’ qualities). Start with sensory qualities. The phrase ‘sensory quality’ is not much in use these days, having lost out to ‘phenomena...
