Architecture of the human regulatory network derived from encode dataAnax Fotopoulos
Transcription factors bind in a combinatorial fashion to specify the on-and-off states of genes; the ensemble of
these binding events forms a regulatory network, constituting the wiring diagram for a cell. To examine the
principles of the human transcriptional regulatory network, we determined the genomic binding information of
119 transcription-related factors in over 450 distinct experiments. We found the combinatorial, co-association of
transcription factors to be highly context specific: distinct combinations of factors bind at specific genomic locations.
In particular, there are significant differences in the binding proximal and distal to genes. We organized all the
transcription factor binding into a hierarchy and integrated it with other genomic information (for example,
microRNA regulation), forming a dense meta-network. Factors at different levels have different properties; for
instance, top-level transcription factors more strongly influence expression and middle-level ones co-regulate
targets to mitigate information-flow bottlenecks. Moreover, these co-regulations give rise to many enriched
network motifs (for example, noise-buffering feed-forward loops). Finally, more connected network components
are under stronger selection and exhibit a greater degree of allele-specific activity (that is, differential binding to the
two parental alleles). The regulatory information obtained in this study will be crucial for interpreting personal genome
sequences and understanding basic principles of human biology and disease.
The RET proto-oncogene encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase for members of the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor family of extracellular signalling molecules. RET loss of function mutations are associated with the development of Hirschsprung's disease, while gain of function mutations are associated with the development of various types of human cancer, including medullary thyroid carcinoma, multiple endocrine neoplasias type 2A and 2B, pheochromocytoma and parathyroid hyperplasia.
RET is an abbreviation for "rearranged during transfection", as the DNA sequence of this gene was originally found to be rearranged within a 3T3 fibroblast cell line following its transfection with DNA taken from human lymphoma cells. The human gene RET is localized to chromosome 10 (10q11.2) and contains 21 exons.
The natural alternative splicing of the RET gene results in the production of 3 different isoforms of the protein RET. RET51, RET43 and RET9 contain 51, 43 and 9 amino acids in their C-terminal tail respectively. The biological roles of isoforms RET51 and RET9 are the most well studied in-vivo as these are the most common isoforms in which RET occurs.
Common to each isoform is a domain structure. Each protein is divided into three domains: an N-terminal extracellular domain with four cadherin-like repeats and a cysteine-rich region, a hydrophobic transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain, which is split by an insertion of 27 amino acids. Within the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain, there are 16 tyrosines (Tyrs) in RET9 and 18 in RET51. Tyr1090 and Tyr1096 are present only in the RET51 isoform.
The extracellular domain of RET contains nine N-glycosylation sites. The fully glycosylated RET protein is reported to have a molecular weight of 170 kDa although it is not clear to which isoform this molecular weight relates.
From Smart Homes to Smart Cities: An approach based on Internet-of-ThingsAnax Fotopoulos
Several applications and services have been developed over the latest years for making houses smarter in terms of danger prevention, energy consumption, waste recycling, environmental monitoring and other life improvement implementations. Internet-of-Things (IoT) gave numerous possibilities decentralizing the control of smart homes. Numerous sensors and developed systems or services can all communicate via smart devices like smartphones. A continuously broaden interest arises from local and national authorities for the benefits of applying IoT strategies in whole cities. With main focus on energy and water consumption, cities can reduce significantly their costs and become environmentally and economically sustainable. In the transition from smart homes to smart cities serious challenges should be take into consideration including a human-centric approach and the beneficiary involvement of the citizens for local and national authorities. The design of an IoT strategy for smart cities is a multifaceted procedure which includes the study of economic, urban, demographic and geographical indicators. In this paper, empirical evidence from selected case studies are presented.
The social aspect of Smart Wearable Systems in the era of Internet-of-ThingsAnax Fotopoulos
Social networking (Web 2.0) changed the way of interaction and communication of humans-to-humans, companies-to-customers, universities-to-students and state-to-citizens. The movement from static web pages (Web 1.0) to social networking and the rapid growth of smart devices created a new need for more complex data-on-demand across multiple platforms and devices. Cloud computing, miniaturization of sensors and low energy wireless technologies offered adequate possibilities to measure and understand environmental, health, industrial and other indicators, delivered in smart devices or in the web. The skyrocketing proliferation of the bidirectional communication between sensors and smart devices created a new series of products bringing us to the era of Internet-of-Things (IoT). The ubiquitous computing (presumed as Web 3.0) states that computing will appear in any device and in any location. Smart Wearable Systems (SWS) constitute the latest effort of academia and industry to toward this direction, aiming to enhance the communication and the velocity between IoT applications, smart devices (smartphones, tablets & smart TVs) and social networks. In this paper an analysis over social aspects of SWS is performed. Recent reports show that IoT market will be bigger than the total market of smart devices and PCs combined, enlarging the overall interest.
Introduction to HMMER - A biosequence analysis tool with Hidden Markov Models Anax Fotopoulos
HMMER is used for searching sequence databases for homologs of protein sequences, and for making protein sequence alignments. It implements methods using probabilistic models called profile hidden Markov models (profile HMMs).
Compared to BLAST, FASTA, and other sequence alignment and database search tools based on older scoring methodology, HMMER aims to be significantly more accurate and more able to detect remote homologs because of the strength of its underlying mathematical models. In the past, this strength came at significant computational expense, but in the new HMMER3 project, HMMER is now essentially as fast as BLAST.
As part of this evolution in the HMMER software, we are committed to making the software available to as many scientists as possible. Earlier releases of HMMER were restricted to command line use. To make the software more accessible to the wide scientific community, we now provide servers that allow sequence searches to be performed interactively via the Web.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

History of the Student Branch
In September 2010, Anaxagoras Fotopoulos sent an
email to IEEE in order to establish a Student Branch. A
few days later a small group of students met with IEEE
Greece Student Activities Chair, Kostas Karpouzis. As a
result a joint effort began in TEI Piraeus. By November
2010 we managed to have the minimum required
members for the establishment. In December 2010
another group of Student independently from the
previous effort started to establish a Student Branch.
The two groups joined their forces and finally an
application of 31 people was sent to IEEE MGA Board.
The application was approved and the Student Branch
was founded at 7 March 2011.
