High-quality and complete reference genome assemblies are fundamental for the application
of genomics to biology, disease, and biodiversity conservation. However, such assemblies …

To better determine the history of modern birds, we performed a genome-scale phylogenetic
analysis of 48 species representing all orders of Neoaves using phylogenomic methods …

Single-molecule sequencing instruments can generate multikilobase sequences with the
potential to greatly improve genome and transcriptome assembly. However, the error rates of …

Birds are the most species-rich class of tetrapod vertebrates and have wide relevance across
many research fields. We explored bird macroevolution using full genomes from 48 avian …

The zebra finch is an important model organism in several fields 1 , 2 with unique relevance
to human neuroscience 3 , 4 . Like other songbirds, the zebra finch communicates through …

This paper describes an integrated network-on-chip architecture containing 80 tiles arranged
as an 8x10 2-D array of floating-point cores and packet-switched routers, both designed to …

A 275mm 2 network-on-chip architecture contains 80 tiles arranged as a 10 times 8 2D array
of floating-point cores and packet-switched routers, operating at 4GHz. The 15-F04 design …

A 567 mm 2 processor on 45 nm CMOS integrates 48 IA-32 cores and 4 DDR3 channels in
a 6×4 2D-mesh network. Cores communicate through message passing using 384 KB of on-…

THE arrangement of water molecules at charged, aqueous interfaces is an important question
in electrochemistry, geochemistry and biology. Theoretical studies 1–11 suggest that the …

Background The process of generating raw genome sequence data continues to become
cheaper, faster, and more accurate. However, assembly of such data into high-quality, finished …
