An increasing number of bioinformatics tools are developed in JavaScript to provide an interactive visual interface to users. However, there are no tools yet that enable fast client-side analysis of large, high-throughput sequencing file formats, such as BAM and VCF files. We present HTSlib-js, an asm.js-based…

The SBML standard is used in a number of online repositories for storing systems biology models, yet there is currently no Web–capable JavaScript library that can read and write the SBML format. This is a severe limitation since the Web has become a universal means of software distribution, and the graphical…

'Isil Dillig' 'Xi Wang' 'Emina Torlak'] Modern operating systems allow user-space applications to submit code for kernel execution through the use of in-kernel domain specific languages (DSLs). Applications use these DSLs to customize system policies and add new functionality. For performance, the kernel executes them…

Haxe is a general purpose, object-oriented programming language supporting syntactic macros. The Haxe compiler is well known for its ability to translate the source code of Haxe programs into the source code of a variety of other programming languages including Java, C++, JavaScript and Python. Although Haxe is…

Background: Node.js is an open-source and cross-platform environment that provides a JavaScript codebase for back-end server-side applications. JavaScript has been used to develop very fast, and user-friendly front-end tools for bioinformatic and phylogenetic analyses. However, no such toolkits are available using…

'Yoshiaki Fukazawa'] Many researchers have proposed program visualization tools for memory management. Examples include state-of-the-art tools for C languages such as SeeC and Python Tutor (PT). However, three problems hinder the use of these and other tools: capability (P1), installability (P2), and usability (P3).…
