GRASShopPER-An algorithm for de novo assembly based on GPU alignments.

Next generation sequencers produce billions of short DNA sequences in a massively parallel manner, which causes a great computational challenge in accurately reconstructing a genome sequence de novo using these short sequences. Here, we propose the GRASShopPER assembler, which follows an approach of...
