Classification of diverse bacterial populations

Accurate diagnosis and treatment of patients infected with multiple strains of a pathogen is a challenging task. The use of whole genome sequencing techniques provide high potential to give proper insight into the microbial composition of human metagenomic samples. Distinguishing multiple strains of a certain species is difficult due to the high...

Development of a workload set for multi-core architectures

With the rise of multi-core chips in commodity hardware, the need for specialized workloads to evaluate the performance of multi-core systems has become apparent. The current generation of workloads used for evaluating multi-core systems often consist of sequential programs not capable of running on multiple processors and are therefore of...
