A generalized simultaneous access dictionary machine

IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, 1991
A simultaneous access design of a dictionary machine which supports insert, delete, and search operations is presented. The design is able to handle p accesses simultaneously and allows redundant accesses to occur. In the design, processors performing insert or delete operations are free to perform other tasks after submitting their accesses to the ...

Mobile Phone Access to a Sign Language Dictionary

Proceedings of the 17th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers & Accessibility - ASSETS '15, 2015
We have built a functional prototype of a mobile phone app that allows children who are deaf to look up American Sign Language (ASL) definitions of printed English words using the camera on the mobile phone. In the United States, 90% of children who are deaf are born to parents who are not deaf and who do not know sign language [3]. In many cases, this

A comprehensive dictionary of protein accession codes for complete protein accession identifier alias resolving

PROTEOMICS, 2006
AbstractIn mass spectrometry‐based proteomics, protein identification results usually consist of peptide sequences and database‐dependent accession identifiers of the matching proteins. Often certain annotations are only available in particular databases that in turn must be queried by a certain identifier. In order to simplify and unify the tracing of
