Parallelization of BLAST at the software level usually segments either the query or the database but not both. In this paper, we investigate a hybrid segmentation approach that combines database segmentation with query segmentation. By organizing the nodes into groups, splitting the queries among groups, and replicating the entire database at each group, we take advantage of both database segmentation...
In Venezuela and other countries where it coexists public health system and a private one, we find a variety of organizations that present health services. Even though we have a strong public system, we often find that each health center uses different Electronic Medical Record systems, hindering data sharing for improved patient care. One of the strongest challenges for the integration of all databases...
Differential privacy is a rigorous, worst-case notion of privacy-preserving computation. Informally, a probabilistic program is differentially private if the participation of a single individual in the input database has a limited effect on the program's distribution on outputs. More technically, differential privacy is a quantitative 2-safety property that bounds the distance between the output distributions...
Over past few years, there has been a huge advancement in terms of Learning Management System (LMS) and online education. Behind this growth, the major reasons are the availability of open source LMS and their ease of customization. This paper proposes some new features for these pre-existing LMS, especially Moodle, such that the same LMS could also function as College / University Management System...
The development of an open architecture for multimedia data integration and visualization in template based distributed applications is a challenge for the scientific researches. Because of characteristics of multimedia data, their management and querying techniques are unlike than those of traditional data. We can increase the potential use of multimedia data across various applications by storing...
Distributed software systems are characterized by increasing autonomy. They often have the capability to sense the environment and react to it, discover the presence of other systems and take advantage of their services, adapt and re-configure themselves in accordance with the internal as well as the global state. Testing this kind of systems is challenging, and systematic and automated approaches...
