The Subread software package is a tool kit for processing next-gen sequencing data. It includes Subread aligner, Subjunc exon-exon junction detector and featureCounts read summarization program. Subread aligner can be used to align both gDNA-seq and RNA-seq reads. Subjunc aligner was specified designed for the detection of exon-exon junction. For the mapping of RNA-seq reads, Subread performs local alignments and Subjunc performs global alignments. Subread and Subjunc were published in...

CyberUnits is a cross-platform class library for rapid development of high-performance computer simulations in life sciences. It supports modelling for biomedical cybernetics and systems biology with Object Pascal.

MoSGrid focuses on the configuration and provision of Grid services for molecular simulations and annotation of the results with metadata and their provision for data mining and knowledge generation. It is based on Liferay technology togethe with gUSE.

This package provides high-level interface utilities for MCMC models via Just Another Gibbs Sampler (JAGS), facilitating the use of parallel (or distributed) processors for multiple chains, automated control of convergence and sample length diagnostics, and evaluation of the performance of a model using drop-k validation or against simulated data. Template model specifications can be generated using a standard lme4-style formula interface to assist users less familiar with the BUGS syntax. ...

...Perform evaluation on alignment quality reals that CUSHAW3 consistently outperforms CUSHAW2, BWA-MEM, Bowtie2 and GEM in terms of single-end and paired-end alignment. Furthermore, our aligner has demonstrated better paired-end alignment performance than Novalign3 for short-reads with high error rates.

PASHA is a parallel short read assembler for large genomes using de Bruijn graphs. Taking advantage of both shared-memory multi-core CPUs and distributed-memory compute clusters, PASHA has demonstrated its potential to perform high-quality de-novo assembly of large genomes in reasonable time with modest computing resources. Our evaluation using three small real paired-end datasets shows that PASHA is able to produce better assemblies with comparable genome coverage and mis-assembly rates compared to three leading assemblers: Velvet, ABySS and SOAPdenovo. Moreover, PASHA achieves the fastest speed for all three datasets on a single CPU. ...

parFE is fully-parallel high-performance finite element code targeted to the modeling of trabecular bones in humans. It employs scalable multigrid solvers for efficient solutions on massively parallel computers.

MutationFinder is a biomedical natural language processing (NLP) system for extracting mentions of point mutations from free text. MutationFinder achieves high performance (99% precision, 81% recall on blind test data) as an information extraction system

Conrad is both a high performance Conditional Random Field engine which can be applied to a variety of machine learning problems and a specific set of models for gene prediction using semi-Markov CRFs.
