Previous Work Border minimization was first introduced by Feldman and Pevzner. “Gray Code masks for sequencing by hybridization,” Genomics, 1994, pp. 233-235 Work by Hannenhalli et al. gave heuristics for the placement problem by using a TSP formulation. Kahng et al. “Border length minimization in DNA Array Design,” WABI02, suggested constructive methods for placement and embedding Kahng et al. “Engineering a Scalable Placement Heuristic for DNA Probe Arrays ,” RECOMB03, suggested scalable placement improvement and embedding techniques

  28. Second Enhancement: Probe Pools Design of Test Probes Probe Placement Probe Embedding Problem: Given a probe pool for every target sequence, select a probe for every target sequence such that the total conflict after placement and alignment is minimum. Probe Pool – Pool Size = 4 Probe Selection Probe 1 Probe 2 Probe 3 Probe 4 Gene Target Sequence Physical Design DNA Array

  29. Integrating Probe Selection and Physical Design Flow A Flow B 1. Perform ASAP embedding of all probe candidates 1. Perform ASAP embedding of all probe candidates ASAP initial embedding 2. From each probe pool select the probe that fits in the least number of steps using ASAP 2. Run row placement selecting the probe from the pool that gives the minimum conflict 3. Run row placement using the selected candidates 3. Re-embedding 4. Re-embedding

  33. Interpretation and Summary of Experimental Data Initial ASAP embeddings produce a decent reduction in border conflicts. Integration of placement and embedding yield up to 6% improvement Probe pools add an extra 12-13% improvement Probe pools offer an extra degree of freedom exploited to further reduce border conflicts Total improvement up to 18% compared to results published in the literature

  34. Open Research Directions Probes P1 P2 P3 P4 P5 T1 T2 Target Sequences T3 T4 Each target sequence should have a unique signature Probe selection should incorporate ability to uniquely detect target sequences present in sample. This should be done with no ambiguity. Methods similar to Boolean covering and test diagnosis can be used.

  35. Open Research Directions Insertion of probe test can benefit from test and diagnosis topics for VLSI circuits. Stronger placement operators leading to further reduction in the border cost. Future work also covers next generation chips 10k× 10k

  36. Conclusions We presented a DNA design flow benefiting from experiences of the VLSI design flow We introduced feedback loops and integrated a number of steps for further reduction in the border cost and hence unwanted illumination We examined the embedding options and placement on the total border cost We examined the effects of probe selection on both placement and embedding
