ABSTRACT We developed a user-friendly numerical model, Shoreline Bioremediation Model (SBM), to simulate the biodegradation and bioremediation of oil entrapped within shorelines. The model takes oil properties and environmental conditions as input and produces variation of oil concentration with time, up to several years from the time of the spill. SBM is equipped with a user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI). The accessibility and easy-to-use interface allow the user to quickly produce several biodegradation and bioremediation scenarios before they are implemented at the contaminated shoreline. The model has been calibrated to predict the biodegradation rate of saturates and aromatics, but it can be also used to predict the biodegradation rates of individual oil components and to decide on bioremediation studies in shorelines based on the enhancement due to biostimulation (addition of nutrients) or bioaugmentation (addition of hydrocarbon degrading organisms). The GUI provides the oil concentration with time along with best case and worst case scenarios, which is commonly needed for decision making.

The development of the GeoEasy program started in 1997. Twenty years later in 2017 it became free software under GPL license, version 3.0.0 is freely available for everybody. The core development of GeoEasy is made on Linux operating system, using Tcl/Tk script language, thanks to the Tcl/Tk ports to other operating systems, the program can be run on Linux, Windows, Android and OSX machines. Objectives of the development are to create user friendly graphical user interface (GUI) for surveying calculations in a modular structure with flexible, open connections to other programs. Both educational and professional usages are supported.

This article describes how the last decade has been characterized by the production of huge amounts of different types of biological data. Following that, a flood of bioinformatics tools have been published. However, many of these tools are commercial, or require computational skills. In addition, not all tools provide intuitive and highly accessible visualization of the results. The authors have developed GEView (Gene Expression View), which is a free, user-friendly tool harboring several existing algorithms and statistical methods for the analysis of high-throughput gene, microRNA or protein expression data. It can be used to perform basic analysis such as quality control, outlier detection, batch correction and differential expression analysis, through a single intuitive graphical user interface. GEView is unique in its simplicity and highly accessible visualization it provides. Together with its basic and intuitive functionality it allows Bio-Medical scientists with no computational skills to independently analyze and visualize high-throughput data produced in their own labs.

LEADME ( Laminate Analysis and Design Made Easy ), an educational software useful for the analysis and design of laminated composite structure has been developed. The software encompasses both the micro and macro mechanics analysis of lamina and laminate. The highlight of this software is that, apart from usual laminate analysis, the software is capable to solve practical laminate applications such as analysis of beams and also a design module is included. The software has been developed using MATLAB-Graphical User Interface (GUI) which makes it very user friendly. The results obtained from this software have been validated. It is expected that this software will serve as an educational tool complementing textbooks for students to gain better understanding of composite structural analysis.
