FPGA acceleration of DNA sequencing analysis and storage

In this work we explore how Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) can be used to alleviate the data processing bottlenecks in DNA sequencing. We focus our efforts on accelerating the FM-index, a data structure used to solve the computationally intensive string matching problems found in DNA sequenc...
