Span includes the estimated lengths of the gaps between the contigs, as well as the contig lengths.
Because the lengths of the real and simulated alignments differed, the positions and lengths of the gaps in the real alignments were scaled to the length of the simulated alignments (i.e., longer alignments have longer gaps than shorter alignments).
We used two different linkers according to the lengths of the gaps: for gaps longer than 3 bp (target sites from 1 to 4), we used a complex structured linker, as reported by Moore [(Moore et al, 2001); GRSSVESACVTSVLVALLPATSAPTQVSG], while for longer gaps (target sites from 5 to 10), we used a flexible linker, as described by Rebar [(Rebar et al, 2002); QNKKGGSGDGKKKQHI].
If additional information linking these contigs is available (such as mate-pairs) then they may also produce scaffolds, which represent regions of the genome where the contiguous sequence is not necessarily known, but the region can be represented as an ordered and oriented list of contigs with estimates for the lengths of the gaps between contigs.
Conduction by electron tunneling depends on the length of the gap between the CNTs.
As a result, the impedance of C4D cell is largely defined by the length of the gap between the electrodes and the length of the electrodes.
Its structure is that of a short dipole, where the length of the gap between the dipole cylindrical arms is modulated periodically.
Although peripheral nerves exhibit regeneration capacities after transection injuries, the success of nerve repair depends crucially on the length of the gap.
The relationship shows that for a given pair when the length of the gap is larger than the average gap, the duration of the successive call is larger than the duration of the average call.
Based on that, we are able to find out which is--on average--the length of the gap between the multi-hop chain of vehicles from the unconfigured vehicle and the RSU wireless coverage area D ̄ g a p (see Figure 8).
