www.niehs.nih.gov - ART is a set of simulation tools to generate synthetic next-generation sequencing reads. ART simulates sequencing reads by mimicking real sequencing process with empirical error models or quality profiles summarized from large recalibrated...

journals.plos.org - Illumina Sequencing data can provide high coverage of a genome by relatively short (most often 100 bp to 150 bp) reads at a low cost. Even with low (advertised 1%) error rate, 100 × coverage Illumina data on average has an error in some read...

Mapping reads to a reference genome is an essential step in many types of genomic analysis, such as variant calling and gene expression analysis.
