Abstract: Managing expressions includes receiving a first query that includes a conditional expression. The expression is then represented as data in a column of a table. A second query is received that specifies a first set of criteria, and the second query is executed to select data based at least on whether expressions in the column satisfy the first set of criteria. In an embodiment, the second query further specifies a second set of criteria, wherein executing the second query includes selecting data based on whether data in columns other than the expression column satisfy the second criteria. A special index is defined, which can be created on the column that stores the expressions, to filter large sets of expressions efficiently. A method of evaluating an expression set stored as data in a table classifies each predicate from each expression, and filters the expression set based on the predicate classification.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de surveiller la protéinogenèse par le ribosome, en temps réel,in vivo et in vitro. Le ribosome est conçu pour porte un fluorophore donneur. L'ARNt et/ou des acides aminés et/ou certaines autres parties du ribosome sont conçus pour porter des fluorophores accepteurs, ou bien encore leur propriétés fluorescentes naturelles sont utilisées comme accepteurs. Lorsque le mécanisme ribosomique transforme les molécules d'ARNm et d'ARNt et synthétise une chaîne polypeptidique, une source lumineuse éclaire le ribosome, ce qui excite les fluorophores donneurs et, par là même, les fluorophores accepteurs lorsqu'ils sont suffisamment proches d'un donneur. Les données résultantes peuvent être totalisées, le but étant d'interpréter l'activité de médicaments candidats, d'élucider des mécanismes protéomiques cellulaires, de gérer la production de protéines et de façon générale, de recueillir des informations nouvelles et importantes déterminantes pour la résolution de l'énigme cellulaire.
