http://www3a.biotec.or.th/c-mii/

A software tool for plant miRNA and target identification. C-mii pipelines are based on combined steps and criteria from previous studies and also incorporated with several tools such as standalone BLAST and UNAFold and pre-installed databases including miRBase, UniProt, and Rfam. C-mii provides following distinguished features. First, it comes with graphical user interfaces of well-defined pipelines for both miRNA and target identifications with reliable results. Second, it provides a set of filters allowing users to reduce the number of results corresponding to the recently proposed constraints in plant miRNA and target biogenesis. Third, it extends the standard computational steps of miRNA target identification with miRNA-target folding module and GO annotation. Fourth, it supplies the bird eye views of the identification results with info-graphics and grouping information. Fifth, it provides helper functions for database update and auto-recovery to ease system usage and maintenance. Finally, it supports the multi-project and multi-thread management to improve the computational speed.

http://www.knossostool.org/

Software tool for the visualization and annotation of 3D image data and was developed for the rapid reconstruction of neural morphology and connectivity. By dynamically loading only data from the surround of the current view point, seamless navigation is not limited to datasets that fit into the available RAM but works with much larger dataset stored in a special format on disk. Currently, KNOSSOS is limited to 8-bit data. In addition to viewing and navigating, KNOSSOS allows efficient manual neurite annotation (''skeletonization''). KNOSSOS is being used mostly for reconstructing cell morphologies from 3D electron microscopic data generated by Serial Block-Face Electron Microscopy (SBEM), with an occasional application to 2-photon and confocal optical microscopy data.

http://bmsr.usc.edu/software/eons/

Modeling platform to study the basic interactions between synaptic elements that allows the user to study qualitatively, and also quantitatively the relative contributions of diverse mechanisms underlying synaptic efficacy: the relevance of each and every element that comprises a synapse, the interactions between these components and their subcellular distribution, as well as the influence of synaptic geometry (presynaptic terminal, cleft and postsynaptic density). This platform consists of a graphical interface in which elements that comprise a single glutamatergic synapse (both pre- and post-synaptically), their behavior as well as the underlying synaptic geometry can be modified. For example, EONS offers the ability to study the effect of voltage-gated calcium channels density and distribution, the number and location of receptors and more. EONS is a parametric model of a generic glutamatergic synapse that takes into account pre-synaptic mechanisms, such as calcium buffering and diffusion, neurotransmitter release, diffusion and uptake in the cleft, and postsynaptic elements, such as ionotropic AMPA and NMDA receptors, their distribution and synaptic geometry, as well as metabotropic glutamate receptors. There are no complicated equations to write: all the models are predefined. This version is a great tool for first time users and students interested in learning about synapses, as well as for studying geometry and distribution hypotheses in a 2D rectangular geometry. System Requirements: EONS V1.2 is a Windows program but can be also successfully installed and run on Mac and Linux.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/triplex.html

Software package that provides functions for identification and visualization of potential intramolecular triplex patterns in DNA sequence. The main functionality is to detect the positions of subsequences capable of folding into an intramolecular triplex (H-DNA) in a much larger sequence. The potential H-DNA (triplexes) should be made of as many canonical nucleotide triplets as possible. The package includes visualization showing the exact base-pairing in 1D, 2D or 3D.

http://www.plexon.com/products/map-software

A suite of client / server programs that control spike sorting in the Multichannel Acquisition Processor (MAP) Data Acquisition System (MAP System) and provides real-time data visualization and analysis. Plexon's original program supporting multichannel data acquisition is a suite of programs referred to as the Real-Time Acquisition System Programs for Unit Timing in Neuroscience software (RASPUTIN). This combination of software and hardware enables users to view waveforms, acquire action potential waveforms around a voltage-threshold crossing, sort them in real time according to their shape, record continuous analog signals, such as field potentials, eye position, blood pressure, as well as capture external digital-event data, such as individual TTL lines or multi-bit strobed word data. RASPUTIN utilizes a client/server architecture on a Microsoft Windows operating system. The server program runs the MAP box and distributes the data among a set of cooperating client programs. The program can record analog signals and spike and digital-event data in a single data file, and supports 16, 32, 48, 64, 96 and 128 channel configurations. RASPUTIN's operation is based on two primary programs: Sort Client and MAP Server. The Sort Client is the primary control program for the MAP System hardware and may be used to adjust the MAP operating parameters (e.g., amplification, filtering) and to set the specific sorting parameters for each channel. MAP Server is the low-level interface for configuring the MAP, which transfers commands such as gain and filter changes or parameter settings from the various clients to the MAP box. MAP Server also accumulates data coming from the MAP box in a circular buffer memory. The client programs connect to MAP Server to gain access to that data. MAP Server also mediates communication between the clients, keeping them informed of commands sent to the MAP from other clients. RASPUTIN is not sold separately, but rather arrives pre-loaded on the MAP Control Computer with the purchase of any MAP System. As the MAP System has been replaced by the advanced OmniPlex D Neural Data Acquisition System, Plexon is no longer developing the RASPUTIN software program.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/QDNAseq.html

Software package for quantitative DNA sequencing for chromosomal aberrations providing a robust, cost-effective WGS method for DNA copy number analysis. The genome is divided into non-overlapping fixed-sized bins, number of sequence reads in each counted, adjusted with a simultaneous two-dimensional loess correction for sequence mappability and GC content, and filtered to remove spurious regions in the genome. Downstream steps of segmentation and calling are also implemented via packages DNAcopy and CGHcall, respectively.
