一套由数十个用 FORTRAN77 编写的程序，可在使用 VMS 操作系统的 VAX 计算机上运行，并利用数字命令语言 (DCL) shell 使其能够菜单驱动，该套件已在分子生物学部门使用了大约九个月。该软件包允许用户获得点矩阵图和线矩阵图，查找并输出相似的特定区域并计算随机生成序列的统计数据。在所有这些情况下，用户可以指定匹配中可容忍的最大间隙数或允许注册的匹配的最小相似度百分比。系统允许用户为任何这些分析创建批处理作业；因此，例如，可以从远程字母数字终端指定多个线矩阵图，稍后可以在图形终端上绘制这些线矩阵图。另外，可以计算核苷酸序列的准相关统计量(Qr)或氨基酸残基序列的相关统计量(r)。提供了帮助工具和文档（包括示例）。
A suite of some dozen programmes written in FORTRAN77 to run on VAX computers using the VMS operating system, and which utilizes a Digital Command Language (DCL) shell to allow it to be menu driven has been in use at the Division of Molecular Biology for about nine months. The package allows the user to obtain both dot matrix and line matrix plots, find and output specific regions of similarity and compute statistics for randomly generated sequences. In all these cases the user may specify either a maximum number of gaps in the match that will be tolerated or a minimum percentage similarity allowable for a match to be registered. The system allows the user to create a batch job for any of these analyses; so, for example, a number of line matrix plots can be specified from a remote alpha-numeric terminal which can be plotted later at a graphics terminal. In addition, computation of quasi-correlation statistics (Qr) for nucleotide sequences or correlation statistics (r) for amino acid residue sequences may be computed. Help facilities and documentation including examples are provided.
