Multiple Sequence Alignments With Regular Expression Constraints On A Cloud Service System |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Multiple sequence alignments with constraints are of priority concern in computational biology. Constrained sequence alignment incorporates the domain knowledge of biologists into sequence alignments such that the user-specified residues/ segments are aligned together according to the alignment results. A series of constrained multiple sequence alignment tools have been developed in relevant literatures in the recent decade. GPUREMuSiC is the most advanced method with the regular expression constraints, in which graphics processing units (GPUs) with CUDA are used. GPU-REMuSiC can achieve a speedup ratio of 29x for overall computation time based on the experimental results. However, the execution environment of GPU-REMuSiC must be constructed; it is a threshold for biologists to set up it. Therefore, this work presents an intuitive friendly user interface of GPU-REMuSiC for the potential cloud server with GPUs, called Cloud GPU-REMuSiC. Implementing the user interface via a network allows us to transmit the input data to a remote server without a complex cumbersome setting in a local host. Finally, the alignment results can be obtained from a remote cloud server with GPUs. Cloud GPU-REMuSiC is highly promising as an online application that is accessible without time or location constraints. |
