Phylogenetic models of rate heterogeneity: a high performance computing perspective
Inference of phylogenetic trees using the maximum likelihood (ML) method is NP-hard. Furthermore, the computation of the likelihood function for huge trees of more than 1,000 orga...

Phylogenetic Tree Inference on PC Architectures with AxML/PAxML
Inference of phylogenetic trees comprising hundreds or even thousands of organisms based on the maximum likelihood method is computationally extremely expensive. In previous work,...

Parallelizing the Phylogeny Problem
The problem of determining the evolutionary history of species in the form of phylogenetic trees is known as the phylogeny problem. We present a parallelization of the character c...
