Level-1 jet trigger hardware for the ALICE electromagnetic calorimeter at LHC
The ALICE experiment at the LHC is equipped with an electromagnetic
calorimeter (EMCal) designed to enhance its capabilities for jet measurement.
In addition, the EMCal enables triggering on high energy jets. Based on the
previous development made for the Photon Spectrometer (PHOS) level-0 trigger, a
specific electronic upgrade was designed in order to allow fast triggering on
high energy jets (level-1). This development was made possible by using the
latest generation of FPGAs which can deal with the instantaneous incoming data
rate of 26 Gbit/s and process it in less than 4 {\mu}s.Comment: proceeding of TWEPP-10 at Aachen. 6 pages, 4 figure

Such “orthologous phenotypes,” or “phenologs,” are examples of deep homology, and may be used to predict additional candidate disease genes.
Results: In this work, we develop an unsupervised algorithm for ranking phenolog-based candidate disease genes through the integration of predictions from the k nearest neighbor phenologs, comparing classifiers and weighting functions by cross-validation. We also improve upon the original method by extending the theory to paralogous phenotypes. Our algorithm makes use of additional phenotype data — from chicken, zebrafish, and E. coli, as well as new datasets for C. elegans — establishing that several types of annotations may be treated as phenotypes. We demonstrate the use of our algorithm to predict novel candidate genes for human atrial fibrillation (such as HRH2, ATP4A, ATP4B, and HOPX) and epilepsy (e.g., PAX6 and NKX2-1). We suggest gene candidates for pharmacologically-induced seizures in mouse, solely based on orthologous phenotypes from E. coli. We also explore the prediction of plant gene–phenotype associations, as for the Arabidopsis response to vernalization phenotype.
Conclusions: We are able to rank gene predictions for a significant portion of the diseases in the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man database. Additionally, our method suggests candidate genes for mammalian seizures based only on bacterial phenotypes and gene orthology. We demonstrate that phenotype information may come from diverse sources, including drug sensitivities, gene ontology biological processes, and in situ hybridization annotations. Finally, we offer testable candidates for a variety of human diseases, plant traits, and other classes of phenotypes across a wide array of species.Center for Systems and Synthetic BiologyInstitute for Cellular and Molecular [email protected]
