Cpf1 cuts far away from the recognition site, meaning that even if the targeted gene becomes mutated at the cut site,

#Trick That Doubles Wireless Data Capacity Stands Up in Cell Network Tests Major wireless carriers have begun testing a technology that can double the capacity of any wireless data connection.
Recent tests by one of America largest wireless carriers and by Deutsche telekom, the German telecom giant that owns a majority stake in U s. carrier T-Mobile,
have shown now that doubling is feasible in real cellular networks. The results suggest that products Kumu Networks has in the works for cellular operators could help expand the capacity of mobile data networks.
For this reason, the radios in our phones and computers either use separate channels to send
This summer, Kumu worked with major wireless carriers on the first tests of its technology in real cellular network conditions.
Earlier this month, Deutsche telekom, Germany largest telecom provider, installed a small LTE cell tower containing Kumu technology on a rooftop in Prague.
Devices with Kumu technology mounted on top of cars played the role of cell phones linking to the network.
or people from making a direct line-of-site connection with the tower. On the whole, the capacity-doubling trick worked in those varying conditions,
when one of the largest U s. carriershich Kumu declines to namearried out similar but smaller tests on its own LTE network in the area around Kumu office in Sunnyvale, California. e
For example, when the devices playing the role of phones in the trial were close together, they sometimes interfered with each other.
and is a version of the small mobile base stations, known as small cells, used to improve coverage in busy locations such as stadiums.
and make a high-powered LTE link back to the core network. Making small cells fully wireless should help carriers deploy them in a wider range of places

He confident that the technology will eventually arrive in phones. It is already being talked about in the industry as one part of a future 5g wireless data standard. ee maybe one
#Google powers up highly scalable cloud-based Nosql database Google has introduced a new cloud-based Nosql database powered by Bigtable that is automatically scalable and designed specifically for large-scale implementations with an eye on the Internet of things.
Cloud Bigtable runs on Google's powerful Bigtable data storage system that already powers Gmail, Google search and Google analytics plus there's the added bonus that it's compatible with the Apache HBASE API.
The latter configuration means that it can be used with almost all existing applications in the Hadoop system whilst at the same time supporting Google's own Cloud Dataflow.
Google boasts that the solution offers its customers single-digit millisecond latency and double the performance per dollar when set against HBASE and Cassandra, according to Tech Crunch.
Cloud Bigtable is by no means Google's first trip into the cloud-based Nosql database space.
but is rather different in that it targets read-heavy workloads for mobile and web apps.
