  • Patent number: 12250149
    Abstract: Data routing with a forwarding process of service data can avoid problems of offline nodes. The forwarding process for data routing can also improve the fault tolerance and service data can be quickly transmitted to a corresponding data pool. Using consensus nodes and a target data pool with routing and forwarding tables along with subtrees from a trie tree can improve the routing. Subtrees may be obtained by splitting the trie tree from a root node by using a first leaf node as a benchmark, which correspondingly represents a data pool of the consensus node. The routing and forwarding table is configured to record addresses of data pools correspondingly represented by a preset quantity of leaf nodes in a corresponding subtree.

  • Publication number: 20240425909
    Abstract: Disclosed are compositions, kits, and methods for amplifying and quantifying a target nucleic acid from a sample. Compositions, kits, and methods enable the quantification of a target nucleic acid from a sample using an internal quantification standard disposed in the same reaction volume as the target nucleic acid, thereby eliminating the need for additional amplification reactions and processing to generate a standard curve. Compositions, kits, and methods also enable the comparison of target nucleic acid loads between two or more test samples by normalizing measured levels of the target nucleic acid in each sample according to relative levels of endogenous nucleic acid in each test sample.
