Advantages of distributed and parallel algorithms that leverage Cloud Computing platforms for large-scale genome assembly.

Abstract: The transition to Next Generation sequencing (NGS) sequencing Background: technologies has had numerous applications in Plant, Microbial and Human genomics during the past decade. However, NGS sequencing trades high read throughput for shorter read length, increasing the difficulty for genome assembly. This research presents a comparison of traditional versus Cloud computing-based genome assembly software, using as examples the Velvet and Contrail assemblers and reads from the genome sequence of the zebrafish … Show more
