Sequence alignment scalable methods and accelerators

Description:

Design and development of new pairwise alignment algorithms and hardware accelerators that reduce the execution time and memory consumption

Problem:

Recent advances in genomics and sequencing technologies demand faster and scalable algorithms that can cope with the ever-increasing sequence lengths. Classical pairwise alignment algorithms based on dynamic programming are strongly limited by quadratic requirements in time and memory. As long sequencing technologies improve and high-quality sequence assembly decreases in cost, we anticipate that the importance of pairwise alignment algorithms will continue to increase.

Solution:

high performance scalable alignment algorithms and hardware accelerators

Aplication areas:

Life science, hardware accelerators, RISC-V

Target market:

Life science applications

Keywords:

biology, life science, sequence alignment, hardware accelerators
