Plasmid mapping computer program

Three new computer algorithms are described which rapidly order the restriction fragments of a plasmid DNA which has been cleaved with two restriction endonucleases in single and double digestions. Two of the algorithms are contained within a single computer program (called MPCIRC). The Rule-Oriented algorithm, constructs all logical circular map solutions within sixty seconds (14 double-digest...

Enhancing Deliberation Through Computer Supported Argument Mapping

logical complexity into simple, colourful diagrams. When used with a touch-sensitive screen such as the SMART Board pictured above, the argument maps become manipulable in a very direct sense. Photo: Michael Silver. This suggests that something else is the key difference between the Reason! approach and traditional approaches. Our hunch at this stage is that it is argument mapping. Exercises co...

Web-Based 'Computer Assisted Surgical Anatomy Mapping'

In surgery one of the major problems is a safe approach of the operation site. For surgeons it is paramount to know the location of surgically relevant nerves and vessels. Especially in surgery of the lateral (outside) foot, the anatomy is not always completely clear since the location of nerves and vessels is highly variable. Therefore CASAM is developed by students in Delft and Rotterdam (Net...

Computer Ethics: Mapping the Foundationalist Debate

The paper provides a critical analysis of the debate on the foundations of Computer Ethics (CE). Starting from a discussion of Moor’s classic interpretation of the need for CE caused by a policy and conceptual vacuum, five positions in the literature are identified and discussed: the “no resolution approach”, according to which CE can have no foundation; the professional approach, according to ...
