This thesis describes a framework for collecting, analyzing, and visualizing dynamic data, particularly data gathered through Web questionnaires. The framework addresses challenges such as promoting user participation, handling missing or invalid data, and streamlining the data interpretation process. Tools in…

The next generations of both biological engineering and computer engineering demand that control be exerted at the molecular level. Creating, characterizing and controlling synthetic biological systems may provide us with the ability to build cells that are capable of a…

The CancerFit computer program allows cancer researchers to analyze epidemiologic data describing the age-specific risk of cancer in terms of hypotheses about historical environmental risks, the heritability of cancer, the role of gender and the processes embedded in cancer formation.…

In this work an optics virtual laboratory is presented. This virtual laboratory is a set of different applets, tools based in Java, which allow the visualization of different physical laws in the field of optics. The applets have the advantage…

Java 1.5 will include a type system (called JSR-14) that supports parametric polymorphism, or generic classes. This will bring many benefits to Java programmers, not least because current Java practise makes heavy use of logically-generic classes, including container classes. Translation…

In this work a statics virtual laboratory is presented. This virtual laboratory is a set of different applets, tools based in Java, which allow the visualization of different physical laws in the field of statics. The applets have the advantage…

This paper presents a new approach to algorithm design and analysis that benefits from the OO characteristics of Java. It consists of first defining the inheritance structure of a collection of algorithms, at different levels of abstraction. Then, correctness proofs…
