EPEPT: A web service for enhanced P-value estimation in permutation tests

Knijnenburg Theo A, Lin Jake, Rovira Hector, Boyle John et al. • BMC Bioinformatics (2011)

Abstract Background In computational biology, permutation tests have become a widely used tool to assess the statistical significance of an event under investigation. However, the common way of computing the P-value, which expresses the sta...

Methods in Medical Informatics

Jules J. Berman • Chapman & Hall/CRC eBooks (2010)

Too often, healthcare workers are led to believe that medical informatics is a complex field that can only be mastered by teams of professional programmers. This is simply not the case. With just a few dozen simple algorithms, easily implem...

A Comparison of Energy Consumption and Quality of Solutions in Evolutionary Algorithms

Francisco Javier Luque-Hernández, Sergio Aquino-Britez, Josefa Díaz-Álvarez, Pablo García-Sánchez • Algorithms (2025)

Evolutionary algorithms are extensively used to solve optimisation problems. However, it is important to consider and reduce their energy consumption, bearing in mind that programming languages also significantly affect energy efficiency. T...

Effective Concurrency Testing for Distributed Systems

Xinhao Yuan, Junfeng Yang • International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS) (2020)

Despite their wide deployment, distributed systems remain notoriously hard to reason about. Unexpected interleavings of concurrent operations and failures may lead to undefined behaviors and cause serious consequences. We present Morpheus, ...

Local and temporal predicates in distributed systems

Bernadette Charron-Bost, Carole Delporte-Gallet, Hugues Fauconnier • ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (1995)

The definitions of the predicates Possibly φ and Definitely φ, where φ is a global predicate of a distributed computation, lead to the definitions of two predicate transformers P and D . We show that P plays the same role with respect to ti...

Transparency and reflection in distributed systems

Robert J. Stroud • ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review (1993)

The recursive composition of systems to form functionally equivalent transparently distributed systems is an important paradigm for constructing distributed systems. The extent to which such recursive transparency can be achieved depends cr...

A calculus for access control in distributed systems

Martı́n Abadi, Michael T. Burrows, Butler Lampson, Gordon D. Plotkin • ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (1993)

We study some of the concepts, protocols, and algorithms for access control in distributed systems, from a logical perspective. We account for how a principal may come to believe that another principal is making a request, either on his own...

Natural Language Processing

Srikanth Machiraju, Ritesh Modi • Apress eBooks (2017)

Natural language processing (NLP) is a field of computer science that is a subset of artificial intelligence and that helps computers understand human language as it is written and spoken. Until recently, it was humans who were trying to un...
