Wimba Voice Tools is a suite of tools that allow for asynchronous and synchronous voice interactions between students and teachers. It includes tools like Voice Board for asynchronous discussions, Voice Direct for live discussions, Voice Presenter for virtual tours, and Voice Recorder for recording and sharing audio files. Voice Tools provides more opportunities for students to practice speaking in the target language both inside and outside of class, and allows some students who are shy to speak more comfortably than just speaking in front of the class.

SyMAP is a synteny mapping and analysis program that compares genomes of different species to understand gene function and evolutionary history. It finds synteny blocks between a physical map (e.g. FPC map) and a sequenced genome using anchors like markers and BAC end sequences. The algorithm uses a directed acyclic graph and dynamic programming to order anchors into synteny chains while allowing for errors and rearrangements. SyMAP displays synteny results through interactive views and aids in tasks like correcting BAC clone end assignments. It has been applied to several plant genome projects.
