Abstract: Provided are a recombinant strain with modified gene BBD29_14900, and a method for constructing the same and use thereof, with the production of L-glutamic acid as a specific application. Further provided is a method for introducing a point mutation into the BBD29_14900 gene coding sequence in Corynebacterium or improving the expression thereof. The method can cause a bacterial strain with the mutation to increase the fermentation yield of glutamic acid. The point mutation involves a mutation of the base at position 1114 in the sequence of the BBD29_14900 gene from guanine (G) to adenine (A), and thus a substitution of aspartic acid at position 372 in the coded corresponding amino acid sequence with asparagine.

A genetically engineered bacterium in which the base at position 70 in the BBD29_112665 gene sequence is mutated to adenine from guanine, causing alanine at position 24 in the coded corresponding amino acid sequence to be substituted with threonine, and an engineered bacterium overexpressing the BBD29_112665 gene or BBD29_11265G70A gene are constructed in the present invention, facilitating an increase in the production and conversion rate of L-glutamic acid.

Abstract: A node in a distributed computing environment can generate key-value pairs. The node can categorize the key-value pairs into bins, with each key-value pair being categorized into a bin spanning a range of hashed keys that includes a hashed key of the key-value pair. The node can determine nodes in the distributed computing environment that are mapped to the bins. The node can distribute each key-value pair to a node corresponding to a bin into which the key-value pair was categorized. The node can then sort any of the key-value pairs maintained on the node by hashed key or key to generate sorted key-value pairs. The node can assign index values to the sorted key-value pairs. The indexed key-value pairs may be the same each time the above process is run, regardless of the underlying topology of the distributed computing environment. This can result in stable data-processing.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for calculating a summary statistic. Calculating the summary statistic can be performed by identifying multiple subsets of a set of variable observations and assigning the subsets to grid-computing devices such that no two of the subsets are assigned to a same one of the grid-computing devices. A parallel processing operation that involves multiple processing phases at each of the grid-computing devices is then coordinated. The parallel processing operation includes each of the grid-computing devices inventorying the respectively assigned subset and generating inventory information representative of the respectively assigned subset. Subsequently, the inventory information generated by the grid-computing devices is received, and a summary statistic is determined by synthesizing the received inventory information.
