Abstract:The Smith-Waterman algorithm is a common local sequence alignment method which gives a high accuracy. However, it needs a high capacity of computation and a large amount of storage memory, so implementations based on common computing systems are impractical. Here, we present our implementation of the Smith-Waterman algorithm on a cluster including graphics cards (GPU cluster) -swGPUCluster. The algorithm implementation is tested on a cluster of two nodes: a node is equipped with two dual graphics cards NVIDIA … Show more
