BACKGROUND In order to understand the colocalization of genetic loci amongst species, synteny and collinearity analysis is a frequent task in comparative genomics research. However many analysis software packages are not effective in visualizing results. Problems include lack of graphic visualization, simple representation, or inextensible format of outputs. Moreover, higher throughput sequenci...

The perl language is a powerful tool for creation of portable programs on a wide range of platforms. Support of the graphic user interface is not included in perl, and is provided by several stand-alone graphical toolkits. The most popular modules are Perl-Tk and Wx, based on multi-platform libraries, correspondingly Tcl-Tk and wxWindows, both written in C. The toolkit Prima was written to prov...

Keynote is a programming language for manipulating and generating music with MIDI-compatible equipment. It was designed for and in the style of the UNIX software system, as an application-specifrc "little language" and interactive shell. Most obviously used for algorithmic music composition, Keynote also serves as a more general utility for non-realtime and realtime MIDI data manipulation. By a...

Digitized technical drawings are available for use at work, for education, and at home. They can be presented and edited on standard PCs with appropriate software installed. One of the most difficult problems of being blind is accessing and using such information. Access and use of graphic information for blind people is problematic. A solution is to produce a textual description of the graphic...

Visual Agents are software entities which assist people in performing graphical tasks. One useful and interesting graphical task is to make a textand-graphic record of a group meeting. When the recording is done live ill view of the group on a large display, such as on a whiteboard, it is a performing art which can be called "Group Graphics." During group graphics, collaboration is enhanced bec...

the set of all non-increasing non-negative integer sequences $pi=(d_1‎, ‎d_2,ldots,d_n)$ is denoted by $ns_n$‎. ‎a sequence $piin ns_{n}$ is said to be graphic if it is the degree sequence of a simple graph $g$ on $n$ vertices‎, ‎and such a graph $g$ is called a realization of $pi$‎. ‎the set of all graphic sequences in $ns_{n}$ is denoted by $gs_{n}$‎. ‎the complete product split graph on $l‎ ...

This paper describes a exible visualization architecture based on software agents, which enables the abstraction and reuse of rendering strategies. Using a reication of the rendering environment, the system is able to add new rendering strategies (such as distributed rendering or progressive rendering) to an existing pipeline, without any modication of the other components (controls componen...

v9fb is a software infrastructure that allows extending framebuffer devices in Linux over the network by providing an abstraction to them in the form of a filesystem hierarchy. Framebuffer based graphic devices export a synthetic filesystem which offers a simple and easy-to-use interface for performing common framebuffer operations. Remote framebuffer devices could be accessed over the network ...

Collinearity diagnostics are widely used, but the typical tabular output used in almost all software makes it hard to tell what to look for and how to understand the results. We describe a simple improvement to the standard tabular display, a graphic rendition of the salient information as a ‘‘tableplot,’’ and graphic displays designed to make the information in these diagnostic methods more re...

This software is a simulator of security system developed with Java and providing a graphic interface built with Java Swing. This simulator is bound to be used to check an existing system or a system being currently devised. A security system is represented by a logigram. A logigram consists of events linked by rules. The rules stand for triggering links between the events. The simulator provid...
