We propose a new parallelization scheme for the hmmsearch function of the HMMER software, in order to target FPGA technology. hmmsearch is a very compute intensive software for bio...
Background: Detection of common evolutionary origin (homology) is a primary means of inferring protein structure and function. At present, comparison of protein families represent...
An important problem in biological data analysis is to predict the family of a newly discovered sequence like a protein or DNA sequence, using the collection of available sequence...
