The Ccma Scientiic Network: Three Years Activity Report
نویسنده
چکیده
Converging Computing Methodologies in Astronomy (CCMA) is a Scientiic Network supported and nanced by the European Science Foundation (ESF), and managed by a Coordination Committee of nine scientists coming from the astronomy and the computer science research areas. During its rst three years of activity, CCMA promoted cooperation among researchers via work visits in Europe and with the organization of three speciic Workshops and one Conference (this one, that aims of bringing the results obtained to a more wide audience). The paper reviews the main topics taken into account during the three CCMA workshops, and aims to open the discussion on the future of the CCMA itself, as well as on the possibility of new collaborations among researchers in the eld of the computing methodologies in the today's astronomy. The European Science Foundation ESF is the European association of national funding organisations of basic research. Established in 1974, the Foundation currently has 62 Member Organisations from 21 countries, and it maintains close associations with other scientiic institutions within and outside Europe. In pursuit of its mission to promote basic science in Europe and in all the scientiic disciplines, the Foundation employs four principal modes of operation:

Compare and Contrast Meta Analysis (CCMA): A Method for Identification of Pleiotropic Loci in Genome-Wide Association Studies.
In recent years, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many loci that are shared among common disorders and this has raised interest in pleiotropy. For performing appropriate analysis, several methods have been proposed, e.g. conducting a look-up in external sources or exploiting GWAS results by meta-analysis based methods. We recently proposed the Compare & Contrast Meta-Analy...

Production of γ-Decalactone by Yeast Strains under Different Conditions.
γ-Decalactone is a flavour compound that when obtained by biotechnological production using microorganisms is classified as natural. The aim of this study is to evaluate various conditions for γ-decalactone production by tropical yeast strains Yarrowia lipolytica CCMA 0242 and Lindnera saturnus CCMA 0243. The growth of and γ-decalactone production by Y. lipolytica CCMA 0242 were higher in casto...
متن کاملEngineering catechol 1, 2-dioxygenase by design for improving the performance of the cis, cis-muconic acid synthetic pathway in Escherichia coli
Regulating and ameliorating enzyme expression and activity greatly affects the performance of a given synthetic pathway. In this study, a new synthetic pathway for cis, cis-muconic acid (ccMA) production was reconstructed without exogenous induction by regulating the constitutive expression of the important enzyme catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (CatA). Next, new CatAs with significantly improved acti...
متن کاملA Note on the Use of Java in Scienti c ComputingJuan
Java provides an easy-to-use language and platform for writing distributed, network-aware applications. For the scien-tiic computing community, this has the potential of extending the range and usefulness of scientiic codes, as well as widening its current user base. However, certain features of Java may limit its usefulness as a platform in which to develop and deploy scientiic codes. In this ...
