Channel Assignment in Cellular Communication Systems and Optical Networks. Due to the rapid growth in mobile communications, efficient management of the scarce radio spectrum has emerged as an important issue. To avoid interference various conditions need to be satisfied by channels assigned to the transmitters in a cellular communication network. This project targets optimal assignments under such constraints, and similar problems for optical networks. Its implementation will have potential app ....Channel Assignment in Cellular Communication Systems and Optical Networks. Due to the rapid growth in mobile communications, efficient management of the scarce radio spectrum has emerged as an important issue. To avoid interference various conditions need to be satisfied by channels assigned to the transmitters in a cellular communication network. This project targets optimal assignments under such constraints, and similar problems for optical networks. Its implementation will have potential applications in computer and telecommunication industries, and advance significantly our knowledge on relevant subjects of mathematics and operations research.

Pattern Recognition and Interpretation in Sequence Data. With the recent advances in sequencing technology, the amount of biological sequence data available has increased tremendously. Extraction of knowledge from such data has lagged behind, awaiting the development of new automated methods for extracting meaning from the sequences. This project aims to develop fast and flexible algorithms for discovery of patterns in DNA and protein sequence data and to find families of sequences that share si ....Pattern Recognition and Interpretation in Sequence Data. With the recent advances in sequencing technology, the amount of biological sequence data available has increased tremendously. Extraction of knowledge from such data has lagged behind, awaiting the development of new automated methods for extracting meaning from the sequences. This project aims to develop fast and flexible algorithms for discovery of patterns in DNA and protein sequence data and to find families of sequences that share similar patterns. Association of these patterns with features of 3-dimensional structures of protein families and their functional characteristics can contribute towards the understanding of the relationship between primary structure and function of a protein.Read moreRead less
