    v10 v11  
    55The distinctive features of [http://utgenome.org/UTGBMedaka UTGB Medaka] are as follows:
    66 * Highly-sophisticated web interface with '''drag & drop''' and '''resize''' supports of database tracks.
    7    * In UTGB Medaka, we aggressivly incorporated the latest web application technologies, called AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript + XML), to enhance the user experience. In the traditional web applications, it was impossible to support drag & drop, or resize of displayed windows without frustration due to frequent page reloading. But in UTGB, these operations can be performed quite smoothly.
     7   * In UTGB Medaka, we aggressivly incorporated the latest web application technologies, including [http://code.google.com/webtoolkit Google Web Tooklits (GWT)], to enhance the user experience. Traditional web applications have to redraw the entire page in order to move or resize some components within the displayed page, which requires frustrating page reloading. But in UTGB, drag & drop and resize operations can be performed quite smoothly, since we can relocate components (such as tracks) in a page locally, that is without page reloading, using JavaScript engine implemented in the modern web browsers (e.g., IE, Firefox, Safari, etc.)

    10  * Keyword search engine, which quickly locates your interested sequence positions.
    11  * Your configuration, such as a set of displayed tracks, track frame sizes, etc. can be saved as a file on your PC, and you can restore the browser state from the saved file.
     9 * Quick responce via AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript + XML) technology. AJAX is a kind of back-ground internet connection, which can utilize idle internet bandwidth while you are viewing a page. For example, our keyword search engine can quickly shows your interested sequence positions from inputted keywords, e.g. gene names, clones, EnsembleID, GO:Id, etc.
