{\sl PGDB } (\url{http://github.com/jimktrains/pgdb/}) \\

Perl wrapper to GDB to allow its use in parallel environments

{\sl nRAID } (\url{http://github.com/jimktrains/nraid/}) \\

Non-homogeneous RAID arrays, allowing the use of non-identically sized disks in RAID

arrays. Currently pre-alpha.

{\sl Harvest Seq} (\url{http://shannon.psc.edu/wiki/harvest

Sequence management toolkit providing tools such group entropy, re-arrangement based on

phylogeny, and metadata management. Currently working on incorporating into BioRuby, and

possibly BioPERL and BioPython later on

{\sl QMBB} (\url{http://shannon.psc.edu/wiki/QMBB

A pipeline to take molecular properties and geometries, run quantum calculations, and

parse and store the output. The output is then used to build inputs to the SMO-Opt program

{\sl SMO-Opt} (\url{http://shannon.psc.edu/wiki/SRP

Program to generate specific re-action parameters for semi-emperical quantum methods.

{\sl rGEnt} (\url{http://shannon.psc.edu/wiki/rgent

Rewrite of a FORTRAN program to calculate group entropy to help identify important

residues in subfamilies. Incorporated into Harvest Seq.

{\sl BioRuby } (\url{http://rubyforge.org/projects/bioruby}) \\

Bioinformatics tools in Ruby. I helped build better parsers and writers.

{\sl Genetic Algorithm Utility Library } (\url{http://gaul.sf.net}) \\

C library of non-linear searching algorithms. I added many routines to make it easer to

use and modified portions for our specific project.

{\sl libGA } (\url{http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=162828}) \\

C GA library. Added MPI support.
