Subsequent work

1. Talk to Zeyar and find the problem with his code
2. Continue to develop the rest of the matrix comparison program; make it automatically load the files in the matrix directory, read the matrix and compare.
3. When clustering is done, analysize the clusters with methods that are similar to emerging patterns. Identify the substructures (domains) that are unique in the cluster under analysis. If not found, try to use the most often occured substructure in a domain. This method has to be compared with the BLAST-Homology methods and show that my method is superior in terms of accuracy.

Xquery--An XML Query Language

Kosmix--A new searching tool

Kosmix exists quietly in the internet until recently I am doing a survey in database integration. Compared with google, it has the advantages of pre-organizing the searching results without compromising the speed. (At least in end-user level) Categories like trusted souces and advanced readings might be helpful. However, the limited results in each category may obscure many uses. Need to investigate more.
