ChEMBL Beaker is an open source web framework, exposing a versatile chemistry-focused API (Application Programming Interface) to support the development of new cheminformatics applications. This paper describes the current functionality offered by Beaker and outlines the future technology roadmap.

In this document we present the CSPIM virtual machine-based code encryptor, discuss open issues related to its Application Programming Interface (API), obfuscation issues, and propose enhancements. The discussed enhancements include a new, simpler, programming inteface and a new obfuscation profile.

UMLS::Similarity is freely available open source software that allows a user to measure the semantic similarity or relatedness of biomedical terms found in the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS). It is written in Perl and can be used via a command line interface, an API, or a Web interface.

In this report, we discuss Tree Music, an interactive computer music installation created using GAIA (Graphical Audio Interface Application), a new open-source interface for controlling the RTcmix synthesis and effects processing engine. Tree Music, commissioned by the University of Virginia Art Museum, used a wireless camera with a wide-angle lens to capture motion and occlusion data from exhi...

Hybrid parallel programming with MPI for internode communication in conjunction with a shared-memory programming model to manage intranode parallelism has become a dominant approach to scalable parallel programming. While this model provides a great deal of flexibility and performance potential, it saddles programmers with the complexity of utilizing two parallel programming systems in the same...
