The lion's share of bacteria in various environments cannot be cloned in the laboratory and thus cannot be sequenced using existing technologies. A major goal of single-cell genomics is to complement gene-centric metagenomic data with whole-genome assemblies of uncultivated organisms. Assembly of single-cell data is challenging because of highly non-uniform read coverage as well as elevated lev...

Mutual interference is a key obstacle in the realistic adoption of full-duplex (FD) technique in future wireless cellular networks. Interference is a much more pressing problem for FD system than for the conventional half-duplex (HD) system, because FD allows the same time-frequency resource to be used for both uplink and downlink, thus possibly creating myriad interference between multiple tra...

We propose an interference-aware user selection scheme for uplink multiuser multiple-input multiple-output systems in a multicell environment. The proposed scheme works in a distributed manner. Each mobile station determines its transmit beamforming vector based on the locally available channel state information, and informs the associated base station (BS) of the amount of potential interferen...

In this paper, interference-aware precoding schemes for multicell MIMO/TDD systems are discussed. By exploiting channel reciprocity in TDD systems, we propose decentralized linear precoding schemes without feedback. We first define a new metric called signal to generating interference plus noise ratio (SGINR). Based on SGINR, we propose a single stream scheme that balances between maximizing th...

MACHe3 (MAtrix of Cells of Helium 3) is a project for non-baryonic dark matter search using He as a sensitive medium. Simulations made on a high granularity detector show a very good rejection to background signals. A multicell prototype including 3 bolometers has been developed to allow correlations between the cells for background event discrimination. One of the cells contains a low activity...

We present a power control scheme based on noncooperative game theory, using a fairly broad class of convex cost functions. The multicell CDMA wireless data network is modeled as a switched hybrid system where handoffs of mobiles between different cells correspond to discrete switching events between different subsystems. Under a set of sufficient conditions, we prove the existence of a unique ...

The superconducting CH structure is a novel multicell cavity for the acceleration of protons and ions in the low and intermediate energy regime. The CH structure is a cross-bar-type cavity; it is the first superconducting low energy multicell cavity operated in an H mode. A superconducting CH-prototype cavity with 19 gaps at 0:1 has been built and tested successfully. Maximum surface fields of ...

This letter considers the weighted sum-rate maximization (WSRMax) problem in downlink multicell multiuser orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing system. The WSRMax problem under per base station transmit power constraint is known to be NP-hard, and the optimal solution is computationally very expensive. We propose two lesscomplex suboptimal convex approximated solutions which are based on s...

Distributed antenna systems (DAS) are being widely considered for state-of-the art cellular communication systems to cover dead spots. Recent academic studies have shown that in addition to coverage improvements, DAS can also allow a capacity improvement. This paper provides a generalized information theoretic analysis of downlink multicell DAS for two different transmission strategies: selecti...
