GPU-Based Cloud Service for Smith-Waterman Algorithm Using Frequency Distance Filtration Scheme

As the conventional means of analyzing the similarity between a query sequence and database sequences, the Smith-Waterman algorithm is feasible for a database search owing to its high sensitivity. However, this algorithm is still quite time consuming. CUDA programming can improve computations effici...
