    • Camflow: Managed Data-Sharing for Cloud Services 

      Pasquier, Thomas; Singh, Jatinder; Eyers, David; Bacon, Jean (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017)
      A model of cloud services is emerging whereby a few trusted providers manage the underlying hardware and communications whereas many companies build on this infrastructure to offer higher level, cloud-hosted PaaS services ...
    • Differences in the Selection Bottleneck between Modes of Sexual Transmission Influence the Genetic Composition of the HIV-1 Founder Virus 

      Tully, Damien C.; Ogilvie, Colin B.; Batorsky, Rebecca E.; Bean, David J.; Power, Karen A.; Ghebremichael, Musie; Bedard, Hunter E.; Gladden, Adrianne D.; Seese, Aaron M.; Amero, Molly A.; Lane, Kimberly; McGrath, Graham; Bazner, Suzane B.; Tinsley, Jake; Lennon, Niall J.; Henn, Matthew R.; Brumme, Zabrina L.; Norris, Philip J.; Rosenberg, Eric S.; Mayer, Kenneth H.; Jessen, Heiko; Kosakovsky Pond, Sergei L.; Walker, Bruce D.; Altfeld, Marcus; Carlson, Jonathan M.; Allen, Todd M. (Public Library of Science, 2016)
      Due to the stringent population bottleneck that occurs during sexual HIV-1 transmission, systemic infection is typically established by a limited number of founder viruses. Elucidation of the precise forces influencing the ...
    • The Encyclopedia of Life v2: Providing Global Access to Knowledge About Life on Earth 

      Parr, Cynthia S.; Wilson, Nathan; Leary, Patrick; Schulz, Katja S.; Lans, Kristen; Walley, Lisa; Hammock, Jennifer A.; Goddard, Anthony; Rice, Jeremy; Studer, Marie; Holmes, Jeffrey T. G.; Corrigan, Jr., Robert J. (Pensoft Publishers, 2014)
      Abstract The Encyclopedia of Life (EOL, http://eol.org) aims to provide unprecedented global access to a broad range of information about life on Earth. It currently contains 3.5 million distinct pages for taxa and provides ...
    • Managing Big Data with Information Flow Control 

      Pasquier, Thomas; Singh, Jatinder; Bacon, Jean; Hermant, Olivier (2015)
      Concern about data leakage is holding back more widespread adoption of cloud computing by companies and public institutions alike. To address this, cloud tenants/applications are traditionally isolated in virtual machines ...
    • Muscle Logic: New Knowledge Resource for Anatomy Enables Comprehensive Searches of the Literature on the Feeding Muscles of Mammals 

      Druzinsky, Robert E.; Balhoff, James P.; Crompton, Alfred W.; Done, James; German, Rebecca Z.; Haendel, Melissa A.; Herrel, Anthony; Herring, Susan W.; Lapp, Hilmar; Mabee, Paula M.; Muller, Hans-Michael; Mungall, Christopher J.; Sternberg, Paul W.; Van Auken, Kimberly; Vinyard, Christopher J.; Williams, Susan H.; Wall, Christine E. (Public Library of Science, 2016)
      Background: In recent years large bibliographic databases have made much of the published literature of biology available for searches. However, the capabilities of the search engines integrated into these databases for ...
    • Phylogeny of Elatinaceae and the Tropical Gondwanan Origin of the Centroplacaceae(Malpighiaceae, Elatinaceae) Clade 

      Cai, Liming; Xi, Zhenxiang; Peterson, Kylee; Rushworth, Catherine; Beaulieu, Jeremy; Davis, Charles C. (Public Library of Science, 2016)
      The flowering plant family Elatinaceae is a widespread aquatic lineage inhabiting temperate and tropical latitudes, including ∼35(-50) species. Its phylogeny remains largely unknown, compromising our understanding of its ...
    • Phylosymbiosis: Relationships and Functional Effects of Microbial Communities across Host Evolutionary History 

      Brooks, Andrew W.; Kohl, Kevin D.; Brucker, Robert M.; van Opstal, Edward J.; Bordenstein, Seth R. (Public Library of Science, 2016)
      Phylosymbiosis was recently proposed to describe the eco-evolutionary pattern, whereby the ecological relatedness of host-associated microbial communities parallels the phylogeny of related host species. Here, we test the ...
    • Quantifying Clonal and Subclonal Passenger Mutations in Cancer Evolution 

      Bozic, Ivana; Gerold, Jeffrey M.; Nowak, Martin A. (Public Library of Science, 2016)
      The vast majority of mutations in the exome of cancer cells are passengers, which do not affect the reproductive rate of the cell. Passengers can provide important information about the evolutionary history of an individual ...
    • Testing the Efficacy of Global Biodiversity Hotspots for Insect Conservation: The Case of South African Katydids 

      Bazelet, Corinna S.; Thompson, Aileen C.; Naskrecki, Piotr (Public Library of Science, 2016)
      The use of endemism and vascular plants only for biodiversity hotspot delineation has long been contested. Few studies have focused on the efficacy of global biodiversity hotspots for the conservation of insects, an ...
