gesttools: General Purpose G-Estimation in R

General-Purpose Computation without General-Purpose Processors

A general-purpose baseline estimation algorithm for spectroscopic data.

A common feature of many modern technologies used in proteomics--including nuclear magnetic resonance imaging and mass spectrometry--is the generation of large amounts of data for each subject in an experiment. Extracting the signal from the background noise, however, poses significant challenges. One important part of signal extraction is the correct identification of the baseline level of the...

[Estimation of T1 and T2 using general-purpose spreadsheet software].

We performed an estimation of longitudinal (T1) and transverse relaxation (T2) time using the general-purpose spreadsheet software Microsoft Excel. The Excel tool "solver" is useful for the simultaneous estimation of both T1 and steady-state magnetization from the non-linear least square method. The estimation time is quick enough for the purpose. T1 and T2 estimated from handwritten semi-log p...

General Purpose Work Flow Languages General Purpose Work Flow Languages *

Work ow management requires language support for work ow speciication and task speciication. Many approaches and systems for work ow managementtherefore ooer at least one new language for work ow speciication; task speciication is usually done in a traditional language. This is motivated in particular by the fact that many components already exist and the task of the work ow tool is the speciic...

General-Purpose Autonomic Computing

The success of mainstream computing is largely due to the widespread availability of general-purpose architectures and of generic approaches that can be used to solve real-world problems cost-effectively and across a broad range of application domains. In this chapter, we propose that a similar generic framework is used to make the development of autonomic solutions cost effective, and to estab...
