Background: An increasing number of whole viral and bacterial genomes are being sequenced and deposited in public databases. In parallel to the mounting interest in whole genomes,...
In this work, we performed a comprehensive analysis of the genome organization of eight publicly available cyanobacterial genomes and of the extensively studied Escherichia coli K...
Creating ensembles of random but "realistic" topologies for complex systems is crucial for many tasks such as benchmark generation and algorithm analysis. In general, exp...
Millions of DNA sequences (reads) are generated by Next Generation Sequencing machines everyday. There is a need for high performance algorithms to map these sequences to the refer...
Background: The recent availability of complete sequences for numerous closely related bacterial genomes opens up new challenges in comparative genomics. Several methods have been...
