C-Sheep: Controlling Entities in a 3D Virtual World as a Tool for Computer Science Education

, 2006
One of the challenges in teaching computer science in general and computer programming in particular is to maintain the interest of students, who often perceive the subject as difficult and tedious. To this end, we introduce C-Sheep, a mini-language-like

Why everyone should have to learn computer programming [PDF]

, 2016
First paragraph: News that numerous cathedrals are offering short courses in Latin is a reminder of the long decline of the language over the years.

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Graph-RAT programming environment

, 2009
Graph-RAT is a new programming environment specializing in relational data mining. It incorporates a number of different techniques into a single framework for data collection, data cleaning, propositionalization, and analysis. The language is functional

Current directions in hyper-programming

, 2000
The traditional representation of a program is as a linear sequence of text. At some stage in the execution sequence the source text is checked for type correctness and its translated form is linked to values in the environment.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

Partial computation of programs [PDF]

, 1983
This paper attempts to clarify the difference between partial and ordinary computation. Partial computation of a computer program is by definition "specializing a general program based upon its operating environment into a more efficient program". It also shows the usefulness of partial computation.

Pre‐analytical optimization of cell‐free DNA and extracellular vesicle‐derived DNA for mutation detection in liquid biopsies

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical handling critically determines liquid biopsy performance. This study defines practical best‐practice conditions for cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicle–derived DNA (evDNA), showing how processing time, storage conditions, tube type, and plasma input volume affect DNA integrity and mutation detection.
