Abstract:This study aimed to create a genetic information processing technique for the problem of multiple alignment of genetic sequences in bioinformatics. The objective was to take advantage of the computer hardware's capabilities and analyze the results obtained regarding quality, processing time, and the number of evaluated functions. The methodology was based on developing a genetic algorithm in Java, which resulted in four different versions: Gp1, Gp2, Gp3 and Gp4 . A set of genetic sequences were processed, and … Show more
