Energy efficiency of sequence alignment tools - Software and hardware perspectives
Pairwise sequence alignment is ubiquitous in modern bioinformatics. It may be performed either explicitly, e.g. to find the most similar sequences in a database, or implicitly as a hidden building block of more complex methods, e.g. for reads mapping. The alignment algorithms have been widely investigated over the last few years, mainly with respect to their speed. However, no attention was giv...
متن کاملParallel hardware for sequence comparison and alignment
Sequence comparison, a vital research tool in computational biology, is based on a simple O(n2) algorithm that easily maps to a linear array of processors. This paper reviews and compares high-performance sequence analysis on general-purpose supercomputers and single-purpose reconfigurable, and programmable co-processors. The difficulty of comparing hardware from published performance figures i...
متن کاملHardware Acceleration of Genetic Sequence Alignment
Next generation DNA sequencing machines have been improving at an exceptional rate; the subsequent analysis of the generated sequenced data has become a bottleneck in current systems. This paper explores the use of reconfigurable hardware to accelerate the short read mapping problem, where the positions of millions of short DNA sequences are located relative to a known reference sequence. The p...
متن کاملHardware Accelerated Sequence Alignment with Traceback
Recommended by Cesar Torres Biological sequence alignment is an essential tool used in molecular biology and biomedical applications. The growing volume of genetic data and the complexity of sequence alignment present a challenge in obtaining alignment results in a timely manner. Known methods to accelerate alignment on reconfigurable hardware only address sequence comparison, limit the sequenc...
متن کاملEnergy Efficiency Perspectives of PMR Networks
Recently, the concern about energy efficiency in wireless communications has been growing rapidly. Manufacturers and researchers have developed innovative solutions, highlighting the benefits in reducing operational expenditures (OPEX) and carbon footprint. Professional Mobile Radio (PMR) systems, like Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA), have been designed to provide voice and data services to p...
