Although mass spectrometry has been frequently used to identify proteins, there are no web servers that provide comprehensive functional annotation of those identified proteins. It is necessary to provide such web service due to a rapid increase in the data. We, therefore, introduce MassNet, which provides (i) physico-chemical analysis information, (ii) KEGG pathway assignment (iii) Gene Ontolo...

Large-scale biomolecular simulations form an increasingly important component of a number of areas of biological investigation, including bionanoscience, structural bioinformatics and systems biology. Future trends in biomolecular simulations will emphasise greater depth (more detailed physico-chemical models), greater breadth (comparative simulations across families of biomolecules), and great...

As opposed to trees that use a single type of decision node, an omnivariate decision tree contains nodes of different types. We propose to use Structural Risk Minimization (SRM) to choose between node types in omnivariate decision tree construction to match the complexity of a node to the complexity of the data reaching that node. In order to apply SRM for model selection, one needs the VC-dime...

The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between export barriers and the export performance of Greek firms targeting the Iranian market. Reviewing the literature and using expert opinions, 18 variables were identified. A structured questionnaire was applied to 141 Greek firms and exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used to categorize variables in 6 dimensions. Then...

Four ruthenium(II) complexes of the type [RuCl(CO)(py)(PPh3)L] (L= thiosemicarbazone ligand) have been synthesized and the structural features were determined by various physico-chemical and spectral techniques. The thiosemicarbazone ligands act as bidentate, monobasic chelating ligands with S and N as the donor sites and are preferably found in thiol form in all the complexes studied. In order...

ions that are not shown include:  The multiple dimension systems of the Person object frame class; these typically include: o A special “component holder” dimension system. o A 4D dimension system (a Cartesian coordinate + time system).  Transforms between the above two dimension systems. Some of the descriptions of definitions in the following sections will refer to this diagram. Structural ...
