Guest lecture
Exactum, C222I will present an overview of my PhD work up until now and it is structured into three different parts. First I will talk about accurately estimating gap sizes between contigs. The second part describes a scaffolding algorithm and the third part is about generalising the gap size theory to other applications, e.g. structural variation.Abstracts:Gap sizes: ... -

Doctoral dissertation
T2, Konemiehentie 2, EspooVäitöskirjassa "The Effects of Mobility on Mobile Input" tutkittiin miten liikkuvat tilanteet ja käyttöliittymäsuunnittelu vaikuttavat käyttäjän suorituskykyyn mobiililaitteella. Työssä mallinnetaan mobiilia vuorovaikutusta ja esitetään menetelmiä mobiilikäyttöliittymien arviointiin.
Mobiililaitteiden, kuten älypuhelimien ja tablettitietokoneiden huimasta kehityksestä huolimatta niiden...
