Background: Automated protein function prediction methods are needed to keep pace with high-throughput sequencing. With the existence of many programs and databases for inferring ...
abstraction rules that hide the complexity of systems of components. We've begun this process in the domain of sensor/actuator network applications, observing that in manyappl...
As a culture, object-orientation encourages programmers to create objects, both short- and long-lived, without concern for cost. Excessive object creation and initialization can ca...
