The Phospho.ELM resource (http://phospho.elm.eu.org) is a relational database designed to store in vivo and in vitro phosphorylation data extracted from the scientific literature and phosphoproteomic analyses. The resource has been actively developed for more than 7 years and currently comprises 42,574 serine, threonine and tyrosine non-redundant phosphorylation sites. Several new features have...

The Homeodomain Resource is a curated collection of sequence, structure, interaction, genomic and functional information on the homeodomain family. The current version builds upon previous versions by the addition of new, complete sets of homeodomain sequences from fully sequenced genomes, the expansion of existing curated homeodomain information and the improvement of data accessibility throug...

We describe an architecture for cataloging the characteristics of Internet-accessible resources, for replicating such resources to improve their accessibility, and for registering the current locations of the resources so replicated. Message digests and public-key authentication are used to ensure the integrity of the les provided to users. The service is designed to provide increased functiona...

Despite the recent development of more sensitive technologies, diagnosis of tuberculosis in resource limited settings continues to rely on sputum smear microscopy. This is explained by the fact that smear microscopy is simple, inexpensive, and the most accessible tool in resource limited settings for tuberculosis diagnosis. Hot Ziehl-Neelsen (Z-N) is still used in laboratories of resource limit...

Grid computing promises the ability to connect geographically and organizationally distributed resources to increase e ective computational power, resource utilization, and resource accessibility. For grid computing to be successful, users must be able to easily execute the same application on di erent resources. Di erent resources, however, may be administered by di erent organizations with di...

Cloud computing has taken place to be focused by educational and business communities. These concerns include their needs to improve the Quality of Services (QoS) provided, also services such as reliability, performance and reducing costs. Cloud computing provides many benefits in terms of low cost and accessibility of data. Ensuring these benefits is considered to be the major factor in the cl...

Structured Abstract: Purpose: In an effort to ensure vendor compliance with Section 508, some libraries have begun requesting Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates (VPATs) or other documentation of accessibility compliance. The purpose of this paper is to assess the accuracy of vendor-supplied compliance documentation, and to identify common accessibility issues highlighted by the VPATs. A ...

As an emerging field, Geospatial Health (GeoHealth) integrates geospatial technologies, (spatial) epidemiology, and health services/resource allocations (health accessibility), with a focus to fight the burden of diseases [...]
