SAMBA: hardware accelerator for biological sequence comparison
MOTIVATION SAMBA (Systolic Accelerator for Molecular Biological Applications) is a 128 processor hardware accelerator for speeding up the sequence comparison process. The short-term objective is to provide a low-cost board to boost PC or workstation performance on this class of applications. This paper places SAMBA amongst other existing systems and highlights the original features. RESULTS R...
متن کاملDedicated Hardware for Biological Sequence Comparison
Biological sequence comparison is a time consuming task on a Von Neuman computer. The addition of dedicated hardware for parallelizing the comparison algorithms results in a reduction of several orders of magnitude in the execution time. This paper presents and compares different dedicated approaches, based on the parallelization of the algorithms on linear arrays of processors.
متن کاملParallel Hardware for Sequence Comparison
Sequence comparison, a vital research tool in computational biology, is based on a simple O(n 2) 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, reconngurable, and programmable co-processors. The diiculty of comparing hardware from published performance gures is a...
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 Accelerator for Raptor Decoder
Hard Raptor Codes (designed for erasure channels) are widely used for mobile multimedia content delivery, and yet they have not been investigated in the context of embedded systems where the energy dissipation is as important as the timing performance. The most time consuming part of Raptor decoder is the matrix inversion operation. This paper proposes a hardware accelerator, for two matrix inv...
