Molecular modeling is a set of computational techniques for construction of 3D structure of a protein especially membrane bound proteins whose structures can not be elucidated using experimental techniques. These techniques has been applied in the study of membrane metalloproteases for comparing wild and mutated enzymes, docking inhibitors in the catalytic site and examination of binding pocket...

This paper reviews and evaluates three main techniques for automated geometry diagram construction: synthetic methods, numerical computation methods, and symbolic computation methods. We also show how to use these techniques to: parametric mechanical CAD, linkage design, computer vision, dynamic geometry, and CAI (computer aided instruction). The methods and the applications reviewed in this pa...

Because of its varying requirements, special needs education provides computer-aided instruction with a particular challenge. Up till now, these challenges have been met with computerized one-purpose teaching tools, instead of versatile learning environments. Since special needs education covers a multidimensional spectrum of learning dif-culties, a computer-based learning environment can benee...

Sensory Aids Foundation engaged in a study examining computer-aided instruction (CAl) with 15 visually impaired students. Off-the-shelf educational software was adapted for use with a speech synthesizer. Students were tutored in typing, spelling, and language skills. The study was conducted for approximately 6 months, and the results were analyzed and are discussed in this paper.

Project LISTEN’s Reading Tutor helps children learn to read by providing assisted practice in reading connected text. A key goal is to provide assistance for reading any English text entered by students or adults. This live demonstration shows how the Reading Tutor helps users enter and narrate stories, and then helps children read them. Areas: intelligent interfaces, computer-aided instruction...

introduction breast cancer is the second cause of mortality among women. early detection of it can enhance the chance of survival. screening systems such as mammography cannot perfectly differentiate between patients and healthy individuals. computer-aided diagnosis can help physicians make a more accurate diagnosis. materials and methods regarding the importance of separating normal and abnorm...
