SEQPACKER: A Biologist-Friendly User Interface to Manipulate Nucleotide Sequences in Genomic Epidemiology
2004
The aim of this paper is to present a new integrated bioinformatics tool for manipulating nucleotide sequences with a user-friendly graphical interface. This tool is named “SeqPacker” because it uses DNA/RNA sequences. In addition, SeqPacker can be seen as a kind of nucleotide chain editor using standardized technologies, nucleotide representation standards, and high platform portability in support of research in Genomic Epidemiology. SeqPacker is written in JAVA as free and stand-alone software for several computer platforms.
Developing the "next generation" of genetic association databases for complex diseases
2012
Tens of thousands of genetic association studies investigating the influence of common polymorphisms on disease susceptibility have been published to date. These include similar to 1,000 genome-wide association studies (GWAS). This vast amount of data in the field of complex genetics is becoming increasingly difficult to follow and interpret. It can be expected that the situation will become even more complex with the advent of association projects using next-generation technologies. One of the aims of the Human Variome Project is to concatenate such data in meaningful ways, for example, within the context of publicly available field synopses. Here, we present various examples of online gen…

Le diatomee bentoniche del porto di Palermo
1979
Abstract Benthic diatoms in the harbour of Palermo (Sicily).—The first results of a systematic investigation on the benthic diatoms on the fouling settlements, at four selected sites in the harbour of Palermo, are reported. Samples of comparable areas have been examined either on the fouling of vertical walls of the wharfs or on asbestos panels vertically submerged at the same place for at least eighteen months. Seventy-seven species have been found. No marked taxonomic difference is evident between the populations on the stoneworks and those on the panels.
From the Harbour to the City. The Process of Urban Renewal in Trapani
2016
The chapter describes the study case of Trapani historical watwerfront, in particular the design solution adopted for nautical sport events and linked to regional landscape quality. The Trapani fluidity is connetted with an entrenched sea cultural and natural heritage. Actions, plans and programmes implemented for regeneration and development are based on cultural and natural heritage to be regulated, connected and transformed, in order to preserve the urban and regional identity.
Use of Geospatial Analyses for Semantic Reasoning
2010
International audience; This work focuses on the integration of the spatial analyses for semantic reasoning in order to compute new axioms of an existing OWL ontology. To make it concrete, we have defined Spatial Built-ins, an extension of existing Built-ins of the SWRL rule language. It permits to run deductive rules with the help of a translation rule engine. Thus, the Spatial SWRL rules are translated to standard SWRL rules. Once the spatial functions of the Spatial SWRL rules are computed with the help of a spatial database system, the resulting translated rules are computed with a reasoning engine such as Racer, Jess or Pellet.
Towards the integration and development of a cross-European research network and infrastructure: the DEterminants of DIet and Physical ACtivity (DEDI…
2014
To address major societal challenges and enhance cooperation in research across Europe, the European Commission has initiated and facilitated ‘joint programming’. Joint programming is a process by which Member States engage in defining, developing and implementing a common strategic research agenda, based on a shared vision of how to address major societal challenges that no Member State is capable of resolving independently. Setting up a Joint Programming Initiative (JPI) should also contribute to avoiding unnecessary overlap and repetition of research, and enable and enhance the development and use of standardised research methods, procedures and data management.
