<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; ">Dear Sir or Madam,<DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>I am writing to request the creation of a project page for a software application my research group has been developing. The application allows the researcher to carry out Bayesian-based model discrimination analysis. We believe that this tool will be of great interest to the bioinformatics. computational biology, and metabolic engineering communities. We have already published one paper using this approach (<A href="http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/21/8/1668">http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/21/8/1668</A>) and have recently submitted another paper for publication. We will be submitting a third paper within a matter of days in which our software is discussed in detail. Ideally we would like to make this software available via the Common-Lisp.net web site.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>The details requested from the Common-Lisp.net webpages regarding the project are provided below.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>PI Name: Ranjan Srivastava</DIV><DIV>Project Name: MoDisc</DIV><DIV>Project Summary/Description: MoDisc is a Bayesian-based model discrimination program used to identify the most probable model out of a pool of postulated models given a set of experimental data.</DIV><DIV>License: FreeBSD</DIV><DIV>Language: All code is written in Common Lisp using LispWorks. Although the vast majority of the code is ANSI, some CAPI elements are utilized.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>If any further information is required, please do not hesitate to let me know.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Thank you for your time and help. And more generally, thank you for the service you are providing to the Common Lisp community.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Best regards,</DIV><DIV>Ranjan<BR><DIV> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">--<SPAN class="Apple-converted-space"> </SPAN></FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">Ranjan Srivastava</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">Assistant Professor</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">Department of Chemical Engineering</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">University of Connecticut-Storrs</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">Phone: (860) 486-2802</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">Fax:<SPAN class="Apple-converted-space"> </SPAN>(860) 486-2959</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica"><A href="mailto:srivasta@engr.uconn.edu">srivasta@engr.uconn.edu</A> <SPAN class="Apple-converted-space"> </SPAN></FONT></P><P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><A href="http://www.engr.uconn.edu/~srivasta">http://www.engr.uconn.edu/~srivasta</A></P> </DIV><BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
