BACKGROUND The MinION™ nanopore sequencer was recently released to a community of alpha-testers for evaluation using a variety of sequencing applications. Recent reports have tested the ability of the MinION™ to act as a whole genome sequencer and have demonstrated that nanopore sequencing has tremendous potential utility. However, the current nanopore technology still has limitations with resp...

This article investigates a mechanism to tolerate omission failure in moving sequencer based atomic broadcast at distributed systems. Various mechanisms are already given for moving sequencer based atomic broadcast like RMP [1], DTP [2], Pin Wheel [3] and mechanism proposed by [4]. But none of these mechanisms are efficient to tolerate different failure. Scholarly observation is that, these alg...

In human immune system, V(D)J recombination produces an enormously large repertoire of immunoglobulins (Ig) so that they can tackle different antigens from bacteria, viruses and tumor cells. Several studies have demonstrated the utility of next-generation sequencers such as Roche 454 and Illumina Genome Analyzer to characterize the repertoire of immunoglobulins. However, these techniques typica...

this research explores the manipulation of biomedical big data and diseases detection using automated computing mechanisms. As efficient and cost effective way to discover disease and drug is important for a society so computer aided automated system is a must. This paper aims to understand the importance of computer aided automated system among the people. The analysis result from collected da...

A realization of multiple-output logic functions using a RAM and a sequencer is presented. First, a multiple-output function is represented by an encoded characteristic function for non-zeros (ECFN). Then, it is represented by a cascade of look-up tables (LUTs). And finally, the cascade is simulated by a RAM and a sequencer. Multiple-output functions for benchmark functions are realized by casc...

The Test Vector Concept A test system based on vectors has several defining characteristics: • There is a “vector sequencer” that defines which “vector” will be obeyed next. • The vector sequencer broadcasts a small amount of information (such as vector address, period numbers and timeset numbers) to all of the pin channels. • The pin channels access a small pin command, usually of between 1 an...

Hybrid robot control architectures try to provide reactive and deliberative functionality by decomposing a complex system into layers of increasing abstraction and temporal complexity. In building complex systems that react quickly to dynamic environments, the division of components are generally characterized as a Deliberator, a Sequencer, and a Controller. This paper presents a descriptive re...

Enteric viruses are major causes of waterborne diseases and present in large quantities the stools infected individuals. Its viability environment lasts for months, favoring contamination water used consumption recreation. The study aimed to monitor monthly circulation enterovirus (EV) group A rotavirus (RVA) recreational freshwater from an island region as a bathhouse northern Brazil, January ...

We propose an environment that allows users to create music by leveraging playful visualization and organic interaction. Our attempt to improve ideas drawn from traditional sequencer paradigm has been made in terms of extemporizing music and associating with visualization in real-time. In order to offer different user experience and musical possibility, this system incorporates many techniques,...

We study the problem of global predicate detection in presence of permanent and transient failures. We term the transient failures as small faults. We show that it is impossible to detect predicates in an asynchronous distributed system prone to small faults even if nodes are equipped with a powerful device known as failure detector sequencer (denoted by Σ). To redress this impossibility, we in...
