Title
Assessment of the parallelization approach of d2_cluster for high-performance sequence clustering.
Abstract
The exponential increase in expressed sequence tag (EST) sequence data amplifies the computational cost of clustering sequences such that new algorithms are required to analyze data at a greater rate. We have pa-rallelized d2-cluster on a SGI Origin 2000 multiprocessor and observed a speedup of approximately 100X on 126 processors when processing a 15,876 EST dataset. The parallelized d2-cluster code is obtainable from the SANBI website (http://w,A,w.sanbi.ac.za/CODES).
