...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. See the wiki for hardware requirements and supported browsers.

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...

The PARSEC CEE is the primary achievement of several years of effort at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center. The CEE was developed to allow engineers in the Advanced Concepts Department to rapidly prototype launch vehicle and spacecraft concepts.
