Smith-Waterman long DNA sequence alignment on Xeon Phi clusters
The first parallel Smith-Waterman algorithm exploiting Intel Xeon Phi clusters to accelerate the alignment of long DNA sequences. This algorithm is written in C++ (with a set of SIMD intrinsic extensions), OpenMP and MPI. The performance evaluation revealed that our algorithm achieves very stable performance, and yields a performance of up to 30.1 GCUPS on a single Xeon Phi and up to 111.4 GCUPS on four Xeon Phis sharing a host.
NeoBio is a Java class library of Computational Biology Algorithms. The current version consists mainly of pairwise sequence alignment algorithms such as the classical dynamic programming methods of Needleman-Wunsch and Smith-Waterman.
