For the last twenty years fragment assembly in DNA sequencing followed the "overlap - layout - consensus"paradigm that is used in all currently available assembly tools. Although this approach proved to be useful in assembling clones, it faces difficulties in genomic shotgun assembly: the existing algorithms make assembly errors and are often unable to resolve repeats even in prokaryotic genomes. Biologists are well-aware of these errors and are forced to carry additional experiments to verify the assembled contigs. We abandon the classical “overlap - layout - consensus”approach in favor of a new Eulerian Superpath approach that, for the first time, resolves the problem of repeats in fragment assembly. Our main result is the reduction of the fragment assembly to a variation of the classical Eulerian path problem. This reduction opens new possibilities for repeat resolution and allows one to generate error-free solutions of the large-scale fragment assemble problems. The major improvement of EULER over other algorithms is that it resolves all repeats except long perfect repeats that are theoretically impossible to resolve without additional experiments.

The floorplanning problem is an essential design step in VLSI layout design and it is how to place rectangular modules as density as possible. And then, as the DSM advances, the VLSI chip becomes more congested even though more metal layers are used for routing. Usually, a VLSI chip includes several buses. As design increases in complexity, bus routing becomes a heavy task. To ease bus routing and avoid unnecessary iterations in physical design, we need to consider bus planning in early floorplanning stage. In this paper, we propose a floorplanning method for topological constraint consisting of bus constraint and memory constraint. The proposed algorithms based on Genetic Algorithm(GA) is adopted a sequence pair. For selection control, new objective functions are introduced for topological constraint. Studies on floor planning and cell placement have been reported as being applications of GA to the LSI layout problem. However, no studies have ever seen the effect of applying GA in consideration of topological constraint. Experimental results show improvement of bus and memory constraint.

The purpose of this research entails the study of the multicriteria graph-theoretic Facility Layout Problem(FLP), the development of a Decision Support System(DSS), and a sensitivity analysis for graph Theoretic heuristics. The graph theoretic FLP Decision Support System gives decision makers or planners more information as a guide in producing their final layouts. This information is provided by a variety of final result scores, so called upper bound values, based on different options and different criteria. The increased information provided will give decision makers more confidence in design a block plan. One case is presented to demonstrate the applicability of the system to real-world problem. Finally, applicabilities of the DSS to other format layouts, such as GT layout and JIT's U-line, are briefly mentioned.

SDM(Structural Dynamics Modification) is to improve dynamic characteristics of a structure, more specifically of a base structure, by adding or deleting auxiliary(modifying) structures. In this paper, I will focus on the optimal layout of the stiffeners which are attached to the plate to maximize 1st natural frequency. Recently, a new topology method was proposed by yamazaki. He uses growing and branching tree model. I modified the growing and branching tree model. The method is designated modified tree model. To expand the layout of stiffeners, I will consider non-matching problem. The problem is solved by using local lagrange multiplier without the mesh regeneration. Moreover The CMS(Component mode synthesis) method is employed to reduce the computing time of eigen reanalysis using reduced componet models.

Placement is a very important step in the VLSI physical design process. It is the problem of placing circuit modules to optimize the circuit performance and reliability of the circuit. It is used at the layout level to find strongly connected components that can be placed together in order to minimize the layout area and propagation delay. The most popular algorithms for circuit placement include the cluster growth, simulated annealing, integer linear programming and genetic algorithm. In this paper we propose a adapted genetic algorithm searching solution space for the placement problem, and then compare it with simulated annealing and genetic algorithm by analyzing the results of each implementation. As a result, it was found that the adaptive genetic algorithm approaches the optimal solution more effectively than the simulated annealing and genetic algorithm.

The first object of this study is to clarify the newly demanded service to the visiter in the museum. And the second is to consider the spatial configuration on the layout of exhibition and the shape of exhibition room from the view points of behavior of appreciation and other methodology. The results of this study are as follows : The exhibition content and structure of Seoul Museum of History formed by a story-line according to the theme of an each zone fixed sequence in an each exhibition that we are achieved. But the layout of exhibition and the shape of exhibition consist on the other hand of the freedom selection. So the problem appeared In the difference of the exhibition content and the layout of exhibition to the behavior of appreciation. It can be said that the concept of exhibition space should be taken into account and the spatial configuration by the completed floor plan in order to satisfy the planning concepts.

The size and layout of user interface components need to be optimally designed in terms of reachability, visibility, clearance, and compatibility in order for efficient and effective use of products. The present study develops an ergonomic design method which optimizes the size and layout of user interface components using adaptive genetic algorithm. The developed design method determines a near-optimal design which maximizes the aggregated score of 4 ergonomic design criteria (reachability, visibility, clearance, and compatibility). The adaptive genetic algorithm used in the present study finds a near-optimum by automatically adjusting the key parameter (probability of mutation) of traditional genetic algorithm according to the characteristic of current solutions. Since the adaptive mechanism partially helps to overcome the local optimality problem, the probability of finding the near-optimum has been substantially improved. To evaluate the effectiveness of the developed design method, the present study applied it to the user interface design for a portable wireless communication radio.

Optimal damping layout of the constrained viscoelastic damping layer on beam is identified with temperatures by using a gradient-based numerical search algorithm. An optimal design problem is defined in order to determine the constrained damping layer configuration. A finite element formulation is introduced to model the constrained damping layer beam. The four-parameter fractional derivative model and the Arrhenius shift factor are used to describe dynamic characteristics of viscoelastic material with respect to frequency and temperature. Frequency-dependent complex-valued eigenvalue problems are solved by using a simple resubstitution algorithm in order to obtain the loss factor of each mode and responses of the structure. The results of the numerical example show that the proposed method can reduce frequency responses of beam at peaks only by reconfiguring the layout of constrained damping layer within a limited weight constraint.

In this paper, we address a layout design problem, PTL[3], for determining an optimal 3-class-based dedicated linear storage layout in a class of unit load storage systems. Our objective is to minimize the expected single command travel time. We analyze PTL[3] to derive a fundamental property that an optimal solution to PTL[3] is one of the partitions based on the PAI(product activity index)-nonincreasing ordering. Using the property and partial enumeration, we construct an efficient exact algorithm with O $(n\;{\lceil}\;log\;n\;{\rceil}\;)$ for solving PTL[3].

Topology optimization is used for determining the best layout of structural components to achieve predetermined performance goals. In the present study, we consider that the objective function is to maximize the natural frequency of the structure for a designated mode and the constraint function is to constrain a total material usage. In this paper, using a topology optimization technique based on the homogenized material and the chessboard prevention strategy, we obtain the optimal layout and the reinforcement of an elastic structure. Several examples are presented to show the ability of the topology optimization technique used in this paper to deal with an optimal layout problem for a free vibration structure.
