For researchers, and scholars of high-performance computing and bioinformatics, Schmidt (computer engineering, Nanyang Technological U., Singapore) brings together 14 chapters that explain how to use bioinformatics applications and algorithms with modern parallel architectures in high-performance computing. After background chapters on important algorithms, general-purpose graphic processors, and massively threaded programming and reconfigurable computing with field-programmable gate arrays, researchers in the field present recent approaches to parallelize bioinformatics applications on a variety of parallel architectures, including pairwise and multiple sequence alignment, the basic local alignment search tool, motif finding, pattern matching, sequence assembly, hidden Markov models, proteomics, and evolutionary tree reconstruction.
