Abstract: A system includes a device configured to facilitate an interaction between a first fluid flow and a second fluid flow within a flow path of the device; an optical sensor configured to obtain one or more images representing the flow path; an image analysis module configured to: process the images to identify at least one droplet generated in a flow path of the device by the interaction between the first fluid flow and the second fluid flow, and estimate a size of the at least one droplet; and a control system configured to: determine that the size of the at least one droplet satisfies a threshold condition, and responsive to determining that the size of the at least one droplet satisfies the threshold condition, generate a signal that causes an adjustment to a flow rate of at least one of the first fluid flow or the second fluid flow.

Abstract: Methods, computer readable media, and systems service a queue, comprising a plurality of jobs, by identifying nodes satisfying a hardware requirement for at least a subset of jobs in the queue. Each job indicates when it was submitted to the queue and one or more node resource requirements. A current availability score for each node class in a plurality of node classes is determined and nodes of a first node class in the plurality of node classes are reserved when a demand score for the class satisfies the current availability score for the first node class by a first threshold amount. Reserved nodes are permitted to draw jobs from the queue in accordance with satisfaction by such nodes of the node resource requirements of the jobs but are terminated, without completing the jobs, when the current availability score for their node class exceeds a second threshold amount.

Abstract: Methods, nontransitory computer readable media, and systems are disclosed for servicing a job queue. Each job has node resource requirements. Composite job memory and processor requirements is determined from these requirements. Nodes that satisfy these requirements are identified by obtaining, for each class of a plurality of node classes: an availability score, a number of processers, and a memory capability. A request for nodes of a class is made when a demand score for the class satisfies the class availability score. An acknowledgement and updated availability score is received upon request acceptance. A declination is received upon request rejection. The submitting and receiving is performing multiple times, if needed, until each class has been considered for a request or sufficient acknowledgements are received to satisfy the composite requirements of the jobs. Each node in the cluster draws jobs from the queue subject to the collective requirements of the drawn jobs.

Abstract: A system for providing structural variation or phasing information is provided. The system accesses a nucleic acid sequence dataset corresponding to a target nucleic acid in a sample. The dataset comprises a header, synopsis, and data section. The data section comprises a plurality of sequencing reads. Each sequencing read comprises a first portion corresponding to a subset of the target nucleic acid and a second portion that encodes an identifier for the sequencing read from a plurality of identifiers. One or more programs in the memory of the system use a microprocessor of the system to provide a haplotype visualization tool that receives a request for structural variation or phasing information from the dataset. The request is evaluated against the synopsis thereby identifying portions of the data section. Structural variation or phasing information is formatted for display in the haplotype visualization tool using the identified portions of the data section.
