Genome-Scale metabolic models have proven to be incredibly useful.Allowing researchers to model cellular functionality based upon gene expression. However as the number of genes and reactions increases it can become computationally demanding. The first step in genome-scale metabolic modelling is to model the relationship between genes and reactions in the form of Gene-Protein-Reaction Associations (GPRA). In this research we have developed a way to model GPRAs on an Altera Cyclone II FPGA using Quartus II programmable logic device design software and the VHDL hardware description language. The model consisting of 7 genes and 7 reactions was implemented using 7 combinational functions and 14 I/O pins. This model will be the first step towards creating a full genome scale metabolic model on FPGA devices which we will be fully investigating in future studies.

Alternative splicing plays important roles in generating different transcripts from one gene, and consequently various protein isoforms. However, there has been no systematic approach that facilitates characterizing functional roles of protein isoforms in the context of the entire human metabolism. Here, we present a systematic framework for the generation of gene-transcript-protein-reaction associations (GeTPRA) in the human metabolism. The framework in this study generated 11,415 GeTPRA corresponding to 1,106 metabolic genes for both principal and nonprincipal transcripts (PTs and NPTs) of metabolic genes. The framework further evaluates GeTPRA, using a human genome-scale metabolic model (GEM) that is biochemically consistent and transcript-level data compatible, and subsequently updates the human GEM. A generic human GEM, Recon 2M.1, was developed for this purpose, and subsequently updated to Recon 2M.2 through the framework. Both PTs and NPTs of metabolic genes were considered in the framework based on prior analyses of 446 personal RNA-Seq data and 1,784 personal GEMs reconstructed using Recon 2M.1. The framework and the GeTPRA will contribute to better understanding human metabolism at the systems level and enable further medical applications.

In this paper,we design a uniform circular array beamforming device of 16 yuan based on the least squares SLC-LSCMA algorithm (based on the linear subspace constrained least squares cma) high stability and rapid convergence for the foundation. The design of the complete beam-forming the SLC-LSCMA algorithm by plural, time-multiplier and accumulators, which uses less resources and faster than the traditional algorithm. The beamforming device uses hardware description language of Verilog HDL , and wires on the QUARTUS II 8.0. Finally the beamforming device is downloaded to the Alteras EP2C35F672C6, and its timing simulation can be run properly in the 50MHz clock frequency. This design can be widely used in mobile communication and satellite communications.

The digital clock is a clock designed by digital circuit. Now, there are some limitations in the use and regulation of the digital clock in the large square. In this paper, the infrared remote-controlled digital clock based on FPGA can solve this problem well. This digital clock is composed of three parts: infrared remote control module, main circuit of the digital clock and function modules. And it is designed by the VHDL hardware description language, in the Quartus II software development environment.In addition, the digital clock has many extended functions, such as the hour timekeeping, alarm clock and temperature measuring. Besides, it has many advantages, including stable system , simple structure, short development cycle, fast speed and the strong usability.

The Boolean satisfiability (SAT) problem is the key problem in computer theory and application. A novel algorithm is introduced to implement a SLS hardware solver called probSAT+. The algorithm has no complex heuristic, and it only depends on the concepts of preprocessing technology, probability distribution and centralized search. Through constraining the initial assignments of the variables, the number of flipped variables was reduced while the solver finding a solution. Moreover, the algorithm no longer adopts some non-continuous if-then-else decisions, but depends on a single continuous function f(x,v). The flipping probability is not obtained by complex calculations, instead being selected by looking up tables, which effectively improves the performance of the solver. As far as we know, the probability distribution selection strategy descripted by hardware description language is firstly adopted by hardware SAT solver, which can be easily transplanted to any programmable logic device. The experimental results show that the probSAT+ solver is generally lower than the advanced software solver in the number of flips (up to 9.8 × 10 6 ), and the speedup is approximately 2.6 times with single thread, which shows that the probSAT+ has better results with fewer variables flipping times when a solution can be found. In addition, the success ratio of the solver in finding a solution of the problem in a suitable time is 100%.
