  • Abstract
    We develop cache and energy efficient algorithms to align very long sequences. These algorithms were evaluated experimentally on a single node of the IBM Blue Gene/Q. We were able to reduce the run time of the classical Myers and Miller linear space alignment algorithm by up to 43%; energy consumption was reduced by up to 45% on our test data.
