BIOINFORMATICS LIBRARY & INTERNET RESOURCES
E- B o o k s
Ebooks
are full-text electronic versions of published books that library patrons can
search, borrow, read, and return over the Internet. Ebooks are available for a 4
hour checkout period and are automatically returned to the library collection
when the checkout period expires, making the eBook available for another user.
To access e-book collection, go to http://www.netLibrary.com

Bioinformatics: A practical guide to the analysis of genes and proteins / Baxevanis, Andreas, and F. Oullette. Wiley: 1998. Provides a sound foundation of basic concepts, with practical discussions and comparisons of both computational tools and databases relevant to biological research.
Bioinformatics:
Methods and protocols /
Krawetz, Stephen. Humana Press: 2000. Surveys the key biological software
packages, offering useful tips and an overview of current bioinformatics
developments.
Bioinformatics:
The machine learning approach
/ Baldi, Pierre, and S. Brunak. MIT Press: 1998. Presents
the key machine learning approaches and applies them to the computational
problems encountered in the analysis of biological data.
Computational
molecular biology: An introduction
/ Clote, Peter, and Rolf Backofen.
Wiley: 2000. Provides
the background mathematics required to understand why certain algorithms work;
guides through probability theory,
entropy and combinatorial optimization; covers molecular biology and protein
structure prediction; includes algorithms such as DNA segmentation, quartet
puzzling and DNA strand separation prediction; contains class tested exercises
useful for self study.
Genomics and proteomics: Functional and computational aspects / Sandor, Suhai. Kluwer: 2002. Summarizes the results of recent research in genomics and proteomics, in particular computational and experimental approaches to expression analysis, functional gene identification, functional aspects of higher order DNA-structure, the relationship between protein sequence, structure and function, and genetic and medical aspects of genomics.
