Abstract

A computerized data-storage system performs the following method: (a) receive a set of genomic data, comprising first items of loci-specific information. Each first item comprises encoded sequence(s) and/or item(s) of sequence metadata, and is associated with item(s) of identification information. (b) store, in first storage location(s), the set. (c) store, in a mapping storage, a mapping between the item(s) of identification information and the corresponding first item. (d) store, in second storage location(s), the item(s) of identification information, associated with individual instance(s) of an organism. The first and second storage locations are not identical. This facilitates a reconstruction, by a data-retrieval system, of at least a portion of an individual-specific instance of the set. The instance comprises a sub-set of the plurality of first items. This facilitates an enhanced level of security of the individual-specific instance of the set of genomic data.

Abstract

A system capable of speech gap modulation is configured to: receive at least one composite speech portion, which comprises at least one speech portion and at least one dynamic-gap portion, wherein the speech portion(s) comprising at least one variable-value speech portion, wherein the dynamic-gap portion(s) associated with a pause in speech; receive at least one synchronization point, wherein synchronization point(s) is associating a point in time in the composite speech portion(s) and a point in time in other media portion(s); and modulate dynamic-gap portion(s), based at least partially on the at variable-value speech portion(s), and on the point(s), thereby generating at least one modulated composite speech portion. This facilitates improved synchronization of the modulated composite speech portion(s) and the other media portion(s) at the synchronization point(s), when combining the other media portion(s) and the audio-format modulated composite speech portion(s) into a synchronized multimedia output.
