• I was hired to a 5 week contract by Dr. Martin Schiller to write a program for an Organism Relation Ontology (ORO) Miner which provides hierarchical and graphical representation of the different Organ Systems and their sub-systems. I had previously completed a test program for extracting Motif (amino acid code patterns) relationships and statistics from proteins (large sequences of amino acid codes).
• Both programs use combinations of software languages: DHTML, CSS, XML, XMLDOM, HTMLDOM, JavaScript, MySQL, SVG, DOM and PHP. I completed two programs for two different Organ System/sub-system data structures.
• These programs have event-driven GUI interaction for information selection from hierarchical tree display, and information display is in hybrid form node-based 2-D graphs and tables.
• Here is a link to one of the applications: Orominer Program
• The programs transformed MySQL database information to an XML database for application use. The programs use recursive iteration and active xml data objects for operation. I worked mostly from home on this project.
