The crew pairing problem is an airline optimization problem where a set of least costly pairings (consecutive flights to be flown by a single crew) that covers every flight in a given flight network is sought. A pairing is defined by using a very complex set of feasibility rules imposed by international and national regulatory agencies, and also by the airline itself. The cost of a pairing is also defined by using complicated rules. When an optimization engine generates a sequence of flights from a given flight network, it has to check all these feasibility rules to ensure whether the sequence forms a valid pairing. Likewise, the engine needs to calculate the cost of the pairing by using certain rules. However, the rules used for checking the feasibility and calculating the costs are usually not static. Furthermore, the airline companies carry out what‐if‐type analyses through testing several alternate scenarios in each planning period. Therefore, embedding the implementation of feasibility checking and cost calculation rules into the source code of the optimization engine is not a practical approach. In this work, a high level language called ARUS is introduced for describing the feasibility and cost calculation rules. A compiler for ARUS is also implemented in this work to generate a dynamic link library to be used by crew pairing optimization engines.

Computational protein-protein docking is a valuable tool for determining the conformation of complexes formed by interacting proteins. Selecting near-native conformations from the large number of possible models generated by docking software presents a significant challenge in practice. We introduce a novel method for ranking docked conformations based on the degree of overlap between the interface residues of a docked conformation formed by a pair of proteins with the set of predicted interface residues between them. Our approach relies on a method, called PS-HomPPI, for reliably predicting proteinprotein interface residues by taking into account information derived from both interacting proteins. PS-HomPPI infers the residues of a query protein that are likely to interact with a partner protein based on known interface residues of the homo-interologs of the query-partner protein pair, i.e., pairs of interacting proteins that are homologous to the query protein and partner protein. Our results on Docking Benchmark 3.0 show that the quality of the ranking of docked conformations using our method is consistently superior to that produced using ClusPro cluster-size-based and energy-based criteria for 61 out of the 64 docking complexes for which PS-HomPPI produces interface predictions. An implementation of our method for ranking docked models is freely available at: http://***/DockRank/. Copyright © 2011 ACM.

Synthesis of musical instruments or human voice is a time consuming process which requires theoretical and experimental knowledge about the synthesis engine. Commonly, performers need to deal with synthesizer interfaces and a process of trial and error for creating musical sounds similar to a target sound. This drawback can be overcome by adjusting automatically the synthesizer parameters using optimization algorithms. In this paper a hybrid particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed to solve the frequency modulation (FM) matching synthesis problem. The proposed algorithm takes advantage of a shuffle process for exchanging information between particles and applies the selective passive congregation and the opposition-based learning approaches to preserve swarm diversity. Both approaches for injecting diversity are based on simple operators, preserving the easy implementation philosophy of the particle swarm optimization. The proposed hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm was validated for a three-nested FM synthesizer, which represents a 6-dimensional multimodal optimization problem with strong epistasis. Simulation results revealed that the proposed algorithm presented promising results in terms of quality of solutions. © 2011 IEEE.

The synthesis and second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of a new family of optically nonlinear coumarin dye-containing polymers is reported. Polymerizable coumaromethacrylate (CMA) monomers having various alkyl spacers (C2 to C5) between the polymerizable group and the chromophore were prepared and copolymerized with methylmethacrylate (MMA) and other vinyl monomers. The CMA copolymers had high chromophoric content (up to 18 × 1020) and glass transitions as high as 132°C. Spin cast films were prepared on BK7 substrates and oriented by corona-onset poling at elevated temperatures (COPET). The poled CMA copolymer films were characterized for spectroscopic absorption and second harmonic properties. A comparison of the nonlinear optical properties of poled CMA-MMA copolymers to poled guest-host systems is made. Relative to guest/host systems, CMA-MMA copolymer films exhibit larger and much more stable second-order nonlinear optical properties.

Protein-RNA interactions play important roles in cellular processes like protein synthesis, RNA processing, and gene expression regulation. Reliable identification of the interfaces involved in RNA-protein interactions is essential for comprehending the mechanisms and the functional implications of these interactions and provides a valuable guide for rational drug discovery and design. Because the determination of 3D structures of protein-RNA complexes has various technical limitations and is typically costly, reliable in silico interface prediction methods that require only the sequence information are urgently needed. We present HomPRIP, a homologous sequence based method for predicting protein-RNA interfaces, based on our conservation analysis of protein-RNA interfaces. We test Hom-PRIP on a benchmark dataset of 199 proteins and compare it with the state-of-the-art protein-RNA interface prediction methods. Our results show that HomPRIP can reliably identify protein-RNA interface residues in 71% of test proteins with at least one putative sequence homolog passing the similarity thresholds of HomPRIP. Moreover, to facilitate predictions for proteins with no identified homologs, we develop HomPRIP-NB, a method combining the HomPRIP predictor and a Naive Bayes (NB) classifier trained using evolutionary information derived from alignments against the NCBI nr database. Our results suggest that HomPRIP-NB significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art machine learning methods for predicting protein-RNA interface residues. Copyright © 2011 ACM.

Many animals are known to maintain an internal estimate of their orientation in the environment. In the absence of external sensory cues, this estimate inevitably exhibits drift. When sensory information is available, associations between sensory landmarks and the internal estimate can be used to correct for drift. In this paper we present a neuromorphic system to model such associations between sensory landmarks in the environment (as provided by sonar) and the activity of a hardware-based head direction cell system (HDS) that continuously integrates angular velocity signals to maintain an estimate of the orientation. These associations are shown to correct for drift errors that are encountered in the HDS.

This paper describes a design of an educational platform for a mobile learning architecture, which is a state of the an topic in distance education. The product will allow users to interact in an efficient, flexible, and transparent fashion with a web-based education environment, in this case Module Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment （Moodle）, using Android mobile devices. In order to provide a strong and lasting architecture, the Service Oriented Architecture （SOA） methodology is used given that it allows easy software re-utilization as well as integration of heterogeneous services. The architecture is based on web services implemented with Representational State Transfer （REST）, as it has been demonstrated to be lighter and less consuming than other protocols, for devices with limited resources such as mobile devices. Web services provide the communication means between the server side and the client side of the architecture, whereas agents are used to deliver the services itself. The authors propose the development of an environment that facilitates the integration of various educational resources to support m-learning. An important aspect of the proposal is the offering of a tool to provide customized alerts for students and teachers, enabling them to remain updated about activities taking place in the courses.

Soft and high magnetic moment Co37Fe63 films were electro-deposited with variable additives on Cu/Ti/Si substrates. The correlation between structure and magnetic properties has been investigated. TEM showed the crystal structure of the films to be BCC with a 〈111〉 texture, and a grain size in the range of 10-20 nm. Oxygen in the deposited films has been identified by EDS and EELS using HAADF STEM. SIMS analysis revealed the presence of hydrogen and oxygen in the deposited CoFe films. Electron microscopy results showed that the oxygen was mainly distributed along the grain boundaries in the CoFe film. In regions where oxygen was present in the films, the Fe content was enhanced relative to Co. The magnetic properties of the deposits have been measured by Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM), quantifying the impact of incorporated oxygen in the film on the saturation magnetization and the coercivity.

Sliding mode control (SMC) has been considered as a powerful method for disturbances rejection. On the other hand, we have presented an equivalent-input disturbance (EID) approach to reject disturbances. This paper takes a dual-stage feed drive as an example to compare these two methods. The example shows that, while the EID approach obtains almost the same disturbance rejection performance for matched disturbances as that of the SMC does, it can reject unmatched disturbances. This shows the superiority of the EID approach over SMC method. © 2011 IEEE.

The evolution of science has been supported by complex computerized infrastructures with growing interest in simulation based experiments. This trend can also be observed in Software engineering. Our capacity of acquiring evidences to describe phenomena of interest in the field allowed the building of in silico models that can virtually replicate feasible software behaviors and improve our capacity of observation. In silico experiments demand additional concerns for its planning. One of them is regarding the scientific workflow conception. This task is not easy and to apply ad-hoc approaches can risky the experiment execution, validity and future replications. Regarding this topic, this paper presents some initial results from our research towards an approach to support the conception of scientific workflows for in silico experiments in Software engineering are presented. © 2010 ACM.
