在AppleⅡ型微机上实现核酸数据处理的工作程序

本文报道了在AppleⅡ型微机上实现核酸数据处理的一系列工作程序。应用这些程序,可进行核酸数据的贮存、对指定的核酸数据结构的改造、限制性内切酶识别位点的检索、核酸序列至蛋白序列的翻译、相关核酸序列及蛋白序列的同源性比较、氨基酸密码使用频率的统计和基因的启动子结构的初步探索等方面的工作。     

Personal reflections on the nature of intelligence in humans and machines

Computers, the human mind, and social systems have common problems of inadequate memory and insufficient data manipulation speed. In each of these domains, information compression techniques have evolved to reduce storage and processing needs. Among the techniques for information compression, coding of information in procedures stands out as exceptionally powerful. Procedural information coding also gives rise to behavior that may be defined as intelligent. It is found in the human mind, in machines and in social systems. Its use in human thought is aided by language development which promotes regular review of abstract procedures. A practical consequence of better understanding of procedural information coding is the possibility of training people to exhibit greater mental capacity, a controversial possibility. This paper explores the impact of data processing resource limitations, data compression and procedural thinking in men and machines.
