In this paper we describe a new approach for the well known problem in bioinformatics: Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA). MSA is fundamental task as it represents an essential pla...
Recently, graphics processing units (GPUs) are providing increasingly higher performance with programmable internal processors, namely vertex processors (VPs) and fragment process...
Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is a standard computer application that molecular biologists use to search for sequence similarity in genomic databases. This report desc...
This paper describes work in progress to develop a component-based software infrastructure, called Padico, for computational grids based on the CORBA Component Model from the OMG....
