...These motifs are associated with a huge amount of noise and thus, the development of a computational platform for accurate detection of genomic sites requires the integration of various large-scale biological data in order to filter out false positives. PARSEC represents an intuitive, modular (easily extensible) and all-in-one solution for the efficient integration of lots of diverse genomic information in order to perform nonlinear localization and characterization of biological sites in a user-friendly environment.

This program is centered on a graphical Hertzsprung-Russell or color-magnitude diagram (CMD). It can show animated evolutionary tracks of stars of different masses, for a single star or a population of stars. In addition, it can show the CMD of a large number of existing open clusters, based on scientific survey data, and overlay isochrones (the curve in a CMD from stars born at the same time) to determine the age, distance and interstellar reddening of the cluster. Determining these...
