  • Abstract
    Reconfigurable technology offers great advantages in bioinformatics applications vs. general-purpose computing. The presentation outlined in this paper looks into the attributes of several bioinformatics algorithms which make them suitable for reconfigurable computing, the resulting architectures, and their performance tradeoffs vs. general-purpose computers, graphics processor units (GPU) and VLSI.
