Multiple matching algorithms are used to locate the occurrences of patterns from a finite pattern set in a large input string. Aho-Corasick and Wu-Manber, two of the most well known algorithms for multiple matching require an increased computing power, particularly in cases where large-size datasets must be processed, as is common in computational biology applications. Over the past years, Grap...

Yan Li (SID Student Member) Thomas X. Wu (SID Member) Shin-Tson Wu (SID Fellow) Abstract — A high-performance reflective polarization converter which could be used in a backlight recycling system for liquid-crystal-display (LCD) devices is proposed. The device consists of a twistednematic (TN) liquid-crystal film, a uniaxial A-plate, and a reflector. The configuration parameters, such as thickn...

In the July 2016 issue of Clinical Chemistry, Dr. Andrew Bryan and colleagues report on their investigation into the levels of blood-borne viral pathogen contamination of a total laboratory automation system. This article was accompanied by an editorial by Dr. Carey-Ann Burnham and Dr. Susan Butler-Wu. They joined us for this podcast. Carey-Ann Burnham is an Associate Professor of Pathology and...
