SGER: Asynchronous Methods on Heterogeneous Computer Networks for Abstracting High Level Biological Meaning

本次SGER将探讨将生物信息过程抽象为软件的算法的发展。这些算法将使用CORBA中间件技术和代理在不同的计算机系统上工作。生物复杂性的抽象将使高级对象的建模成为可能。最初的重点将放在开发图形界面和建模基因组对象以及情感的计算模型上。模型系统的选择是通过考虑有多少不同的科学领域可能从开发的工具中输入和获得一些东西来决定的。研究结果将用于研究计算和教学层面的学习问题，以及从计算机科学的角度研究生物对象如何相互作用。这反过来又将使基因调控网络、功能基因组学和神经元集合中的信号编码的研究成为可能。

This SGER will explore the development of algorithms that abstract biological information processes into software. The algorithms will work on different computer systems using CORBA middleware technology and agents. The abstraction of biological complexity will enable the modeling of high level objects. The original focus will be on developing graphical interfaces and modeling genomic objects and computational models of emotion. The choice of the model systems was determined by considering how many different areas of science might have input and get something out of the tools that are developed. The results will feed into learning issues at both the computational and pedagogical levels, as well as how biological objects interact from a computer science perspective. This in turn will enable research into gene regulatory networks, functional genomics and signal encoding in ensembles of neurons.
