Due to the ever-increasing size of sequence databases it has become clear that faster techniques must be employed to effectively perform biological sequence analysis in a reasonab...
I/O performance remains a weakness of parallel computing systems today. While this weakness is partly attributed to rapid advances in other system components, I/O interfaces avail...
