Manifold similarity search of DNA sequences with reconfigurable hardware

Popcount computations are widely used in such areas as combinatorial search, data processing, statistical analysis, and bio- and chemical informatics. In many practical problems the size of initial data is very large and increase in throughput is ...

Comparing genetic sequences is a well-known problem in bioinformatics. Newly determined sequences are being compared to known sequences stored in databases in order to investigate biological functions. In recent years the number of available sequences ...

Advances in portable devices and location-aware applications have necessitated the research in sophisticated yet small-footprint hardware and software in embedded systems, while the proliferation of the Web and distributed database systems has led to ...
