Making Informatics Work for Everyone
(2010)Technical ReportsThis report has originally been presented to the Rector of ETH Zurich in March, 2008, as a white paper to discuss issues related to teaching basic competences required for the professional use of computers in the natural sciences at ETH Zurich. It describes how the challenges this raises have uncovered the need for novel approaches to realistically teach the use of computers. The report recounts how, with the support of funds from the ...Report -
The uniform minimum-ones 2SAT problem and its application to haplotype classification
(2010)Technical ReportAnalyzing genomic data for finding those gene variations which are responsible for hereditary diseases is one of the great challenges in modern bioinformatics. In many living beings (including the human), every gene is present in two copies, inherited from the two parents, the so-called haplotypes. In this paper, we propose a simple combinatorial model for classifying the set of haplotypes in a population according to their responsibility ...Report
