External memory BWT and LCP computation for sequence collections with applications

Abstract Background Sequencing technologies produce larger and larger collections of biosequences that have to be stored in compressed indices supporting fast search operations. Many compressed indices are based on the Burrows–Wheeler Transform (BWT) and the longest common prefix (LCP) array. Becaus...
