Came in for 10 today as I overslept slightly (landlord finally replaced my broken bed and it was comfy is my excuse). Started planning my evolutionary algorithm this morning, with a view to getting it coded up next week. Started to work through and read through back-propagation neural network stuff. Spend the afternoon with Morgan going through possible program structure and how neural networks are structured.

Also read through some papers on Listeria, in particular searching for quorum sensing systems other than agr, and discovered PrfA which is a diffusible autorepressor protein.

Based on the structure of the database provided in the entity relationship diagram, work out how to structure the query and java that will obtain the information from the database.

Update the ERD ( I think I will change it from the original, it doesn not need to be overcomplicated) Here is an outline of how I think the information could be stored and processed...a work in progress.....
