Techniques relating to LDPC encoding. A set of operations is produced that is usable to generate an encoded message based on an input message. The set of operations corresponds to operations for entries in a smaller matrix representation that specifies locations of non-zero entries in an LDPC encoding matrix. A mobile device is configured with the set of operations to perform LDPC encoding. Circuitry configured with the set of operations performs LDPC encoding with high performance, relatively small area and/or low power consumption.

LPDC encoding techniques using a matrix representation

Performing sequencing of a polynucleotide. A first image of microparticles that are distributed in a random fashion on a substrate may be received. Each of the microparticles may include a plurality of similar oligonucleotides of the polynucleotide. A second image of the microparticles may be received. A plurality of first subportions of the first image may be determined. Each subportion may include a respective plurality of microparticles distributed in a random fashion. The second image may be analyzed to identify a plurality of second subportions in the second image. Each of the plurality of second subportions may correspond to a respective one of the plurality of first subportions. A plurality of the microparticles may be matched from the first and second images based on said analyzing. At least a portion of the sequence of nucleotides of the polynucleotide may be determined based on said matching.
