Description-en: parallel local alignment of biological sequences
zAlign is a local sequence aligner, especially intended for use with
large biological DNA sequences, with more than 1Mbp (Millions of base
pairs). It uses the Smith-Waterman exact algorithm with affine gap cost
function to perform this task.
.
zAlign can be used both in distributed (clusters, for
example) or standalone environments. Currently it has
been tested on Linux and Sun Solaris, using both the MPICH
(http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpi/mpich1/) and OpenMPI
(http://www.open-mpi.org/) implementations. Ports for other Unix-like
environments are highly considered.
