Web Services-Based Test Report Generation

Tests involving a large number of test cases and test scenarios are always time- and effort- intensive, and use ad hoc approaches. Test management is needed to control the complexity and the qual- ity of the testing of large software systems. The reporting mechanism is critical for monitoring the testing progress, analyzing test results, and evaluating the test effectiveness for a disciplined testing process throughout the testing lifecycle. This paper presents an XML-based report generation method for large sys- tem testing. The service-oriented architecture enables flexible test report generation, presentation, and ex- change to facilitate collaboration in a distributed environment. The results show that proper reporting can ef- fectively improve the visibility of the testing process and that this web-based approach is critical to enhance communication among multiple testing groups.

An Effective and Customized Itinerary Planning System Using Association Rule Mining Technique with Personalized Points of Interest

Mining the data from the huge collection that are present in the database and uncovering the relationships between the item set are one of the key aspects of data mining technologies. Itinerary planning system with personalization in selecting the places to the users is one of the demanding features in most of the travel plan. In this work, the system is designed in such a way to provide the customized journey plan to the users and also the effective one to the back pack travelers. Here the Points of Interests are the places to visit in each destination for the number of days chosen by the travelers. In this system, the users are allowed to specify the desired POIs to visit for the selected destination and can make their customized travel plan effectively. This proposed system is designed to choose the customized places to visit and to plan travel for K-day itineraries. The most visited itineraries are saved and updated in the database. Association rules are used to find out the frequent places visited in each destination and to provide the reputed places to the users to plan the journey. Here the Weka tool is used to evaluate the performance of the algorithm and the rules that are generated for the given travel dataset. Data set is designed by considering several attributes that can take part during travel such as source, destination, travel cost, budget, etc. Statistical analysis is done to evaluate the performance of the proposed system and the list of features that are present in the system. During the analysis part, registered users, number of logins, frequent visits, and attributes are analyzed. Thus the system can be redefined further with the help of this statistical analysis. It is mostly used at the organization end to evaluate their performance and improve the features. Report is generated once the user has chosen their customized places to visit and all detailed description of journey is presented to the user. Report could be saved at the user end and they can use it for the future reference. Thus the goal of the system is to provide the customized travel with personalization in choosing POIs and to find the frequent places visited with desired amenities.

Generation of an LncRNA Gtl2-GFP Reporter for Rapid Assessment of Pluripotency in Mouse Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

Epigenetic reprogramming of somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells （iPSCs） by overexpression of defined factors holds great promise for disease modeling and regen- erative medicine （Takahashi and Yamanaka, 2006; Robinton and Daley, 2012）. However, the stochastic reprogramming process often results in variable pluripotency levels of iPSC lines as measured by their in vivo developmental potential, which poses a huge challenge to the applications of high quality iPSCs （Hanna et al., 2010）. The activation status of an imprinted Dlkl-Dio3 region has been identified as a molecular marker for pluripotency （Liu et al., 2010; Stadtfeld et al.,
