HipMer
A High performance distributed memory assembler for big genomic data
HipMer is the first end-to-end de novo genome assembler designed for extreme scale analysis via efficient parallelization. The single-genome assembly implementation is a high-performance parallelization and port of the Meraculous assembler (http://jgi.doe.gov/data-and-tools/meraculous/). The MetaHipMer extension is a recent addition to HipMer that is geared to large metagenomes and leverages iterative kmer sizes and a specialized scaffolding algorithm to produce increased contiguity...
