NLREG determines the values of parameters for an equation, whose form you specify, that cause the equation to best fit a set of data values. NLREG can handle linear, polynomial, exponential, logistic, periodic, and general nonlinear functions. NLREG features a full programming language with a syntax similar to C for specifying the function that is to be fitted to the data. This allows you to compute intermediate work variables, use conditionals, and even iterate in loops. With NLREG it is easy to construct piecewise functions that change form over different domains. NLREG performs true nonlinear regression, it does not transform the function into a linear form. As a result, it can handle functions that are impossible to linearize such as: Y = Amplitude*SIN(Freq*X+Phase) + A*EXP(X); Another advantage of handing the function in true nonlinear form is that the minimization of the sum of squared residual values (i.e., "least squares") is based on the true nonlinear value rather than some linearized transformation. In addition to computing the optimal values of the parameters, NLREG can generate plots of the data points and the fitted equation. In addition, it can plot the distribution of residual values. In addition to performing classic nonlinear regression, NLREG can be used to find the root or minimum value of a general nonlinear function. It can also be used in a special form where the independent variable is omitted; an interesting application of this is "circular regression" where a circle is fitted to a set of data points. NLREG is in use at hundreds of universities, laboratories, and government agencies around the world (including the U.S. Navy, Harvard, and Duke). The price of NLREG is only $65 ($70 if outside the USA), which is far below the cost of comparable commercial regression programs. And you can download a shareware demonstration version of NLREG to try out before you decide to purchase it.

It will read tree data in New Hampshire (Newick) format, then display graphical views of the phylogenetic tree. Various options allow you to modify, adorn and edit the tree. Standard application functions to save, print, edit and manage preferences are included. This program will not estimate nor produce the tree data. For that, software such as Phylip, Clustal W, and others may be used. Phylodendron is available at ftp://iubio.bio.indiana.edu/molbio/java/apps/trees/ http://iubio.bio.indiana.edu/soft/molbio/java/apps/trees/ Phylodendron is written as a Java application. This means that it will run on most personal computers and workstations as a standard program. This application is an enhancement of the Mac Hypercard program "Tree Draw Deck" released by the author in 1990. Please read the installation instructions included in phylodendron-doc.html. You may need to install a java runtime system for your computer.

Set up your table of links and descriptions in a table of HTML with the links pointing to the .DOC files. As long as Netscape (or Explorer) is set up to launch WORD (or WORDVIEW if you prefer), they can pick the file they want and have WORD launched. This would even work over the network so that all you would have to distribute is the HTML table, with access to the documents done over the network to your server. Robert D.

We have a sensor available that is injected subcutaneously and carries various types of information. This sensor does not need any power of its own and isn encapsulated in glass. The sensor is queried by a radio frequency system that can read and write to the implanted sensor. In this way you can actually track your animals individually and even perhaps have the gates et up with antennae so that the animal actually writes the path for you as it travels. If you would like more information pleas let me know. Best regards. Charles A. Peavey Action Mechatronics, Inc Oakland, California.

The intention of the Department of Arts, Culture, Science and Technology of SA is to make South Africans more aware of how Science and Technology affects them in every-day life. Such a national initiative is a very good environment for a conference like this: one that has a broad scope and spans many different fields. At the same time an opportunity is given to the research community of South Africa to interact more directly with overseas peers. _______________________________________________________________________ AIMS AND SCOPE The Conference is broad in scope and will provide a forum for the exchange of the latest research results as applied to different branches of science and technology. The areas of interest include concepts, techniques and paradigms associated with systems, signals, control and/or computers. Domains of application include informatics, bio- medical technology, economics, management, diverse engineering and science fields and applied mathematics. Artificial intelligence techniques are of particular interest, as well as reports on industrial applications. The conference will include several plenary and invited lectures from world renowned scientists, regular papers and posters. A number of special and invited sessions will also be organized, dealing with focused areas of interest. The proposals for these special sessions should be submitted at the same time as the abstracts. A special session cannot have less than three papers or more than six. The official language of the conference is English. ________________________________________________________________________ MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION - REVIEW PROCESS Three copies of the extended abstract having about two pages, should be sent to the Conference Office at the address provided. Alternatively they may be faxed (one copy). Full papers are preferred. Abstracts (papers) in Microsoft Word can be sent by e-mail. All submissions will be reviewed by members of the International Programme Committee; additional reviewers will be consulted if necessary. The submissions will be reviewed as soon as they arrive; the average review time is about four weeks. Authors of accepted papers will thereafter be informed (by e-mail if available) of the required format for camera-ready paper submissions. In order for reviewers to be able to assess the submissions, the extended abstract has to provide sufficient information about the background to the problem, the novelty of the obtained results and the results achieved, the conclusions drawn and some references. Up to five keywords should be provided. All submitted papers have to be original, unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. ______________________________________________________________________ PROCEEDINGS All accepted papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings, which will be issued by a renowned international publisher. ______________________________________________________________________ IMPORTANT NOTICE Although we expect that the authors of accepted papers will present the papers at this Conference, we recognize that circumstances may prevent authors from participation at the Conference. In such cases the accepted papers will be published if the authors inform organizers of their non-attendance at the Conference by 15th May 1998. However, conference fees according to established rules have to be pre-paid in order that papers appear in the Proceedings. ________________________________________________________________________ CONFERENCE FEES The conference fee for one participant covers the publication of paper(s) (each with a maximum of five A4 pages in length) according to the required format; one volume of the Proceedings in which the paper(s) appear(s); refreshment during the conference and a banquet. Additional volumes of the Proceedings can be purchased for US$ 55.00. A social programme and tourist visits will be provided at extra cost. Members of SAIMC are entitled to 10% conference fee discount. Reduced registration fee of US$ 250.00 (South Africans R 1000.00) is applicable for early received, reviewed and accepted papers provided this fee is paid by the end of February, 1998 - prospective authors are encouraged to take advantage of this convenience; otherwise the following rates apply: Early registration fee: US$ 300.00 (South Africans R 1200.00) Late and on-site registration fee: US$ 350.00 (South Africans R 1400.00) Student fee: US$ 200.00 (South Africans R 800.00). The student scale of fees applies when all authors mentioned on the paper are current students; written proof has to be provided at the time of payment.

It gives you a graphic user interface (based on Vibrant interface so available for most platforms including MAC). It can calculate the alignment or read an existing one (in various format including the GCG9 ones). It widely easier to use and give a better access to advanced feature. It uses a default coloring scheme, but you can easily define your own. It also provide some statistical tools for quality analysis. You can save it as a postscript file so printing it easily with drop.ps or similar Mac postscript tool. ClustalX publication will appear in NAR vol 25 issue 24. François.

Unlike the mainframe version of BoxShade, the Mac version (a) has a fully dialog/menu driven interface (b) will display your alignment or save it as PICT or EPSF/PS (or RTF or TEXT) (c) does handle ClustalW MSF files (at least the ones I tried). It is available from ftp://ulrec3.unil.ch/pub/boxshade/MacBoxshade. I am the author, so I am biased in thinking it is quite nice. All the best. Michael D.

Presentation: Strategic Approaches to Cellular Transcriptional HTS Assays Dr. Mel Reichman Vice President Drug Discovery OSI Pharmaceuticals Uniondale, NY Presentation: Development of an Ultra-High Throughput Screening System: Plate Design, Liquid Handling & Image Analysis Dr. Kevin Oldenburg Director of Biomedical Screening Dupont Merck, USA Recent advances in plate design, liquid handling, and imaging have made it possible, for the first time, to create truly ultra-high throughput screening systems. The key engineering challenges which needed to be overcome in order to develop these systems as well as system limitations will be discussed. Data from model systems will be presented comparing the results obtained from the miniaturized format with those obtained from the standard 96-well format. These results demonstrate that the signal to noise ratio and robustness of an assay can be preserved upon miniaturization. The flexibility of this system should make it amenable for screening of not only pharmaceuticals but also for agrochemicals and applied materials.

I haven't had a chance to give PAWS a full test, but it does appear to be pretty useful especially for display -- e.g., it includes a font that transforms single letter amino acid code into a symbol for side-chain structure.

This is the situation: my brother Fabio moved from Italy at the beginning of the year and went in Bolivia in order to help those poor people living there. He is a member of the missionary organization O.M.G. (Mato Grosso Operation). They built a hospital there and they need a computer software to manage the medicines supply and to run patients. The hospital is situated at Escoma, a small centre of the country, so they don't have a lot of pretension. Moreover, as O.M.G. is a voluntary association, they don't have a lot of money to spend. Could you give me a suggestion or indicate me someone to consult? My name is Filippo and I write from Perugia - Italia. Please, put a message in the newsgroup for the answer. Thank you.
