CORE MODULES

Three modules make up the core engine for MCE.

MCE::Core

Provides the Core API for Many-Core Engine. The various MCE options are described here.

MCE::Signal

Temporary directory creation, cleanup, and signal handling.

MCE::Util

Utility functions for Many-Core Engine.

MCE EXTRAS

There are 4 add-on modules for use with MCE.

MCE::Candy

Provides a collection of sugar methods and output iterators for preserving output order.

MCE::Mutex

Provides a simple semaphore implementation supporting threads and processes.

MCE::Queue

Provides a hybrid queuing implementation for MCE supporting normal queues and priority queues from a single module. MCE::Queue exchanges data via the core engine to enable queuing to work for both children (spawned from fork) and threads.

MCE::Relay

Enables workers to receive and pass on information orderly with zero involvement by the manager process while running.

MCE MODELS

The models take Many-Core Engine to a new level for ease of use. Two options (chunk_size and max_workers) are configured automatically as well as spawning and shutdown.

MCE::Loop

Provides a parallel loop utilizing MCE for building creative loops.

MCE::Flow

A parallel flow model for building creative applications. This makes use of user_tasks in MCE. The author has full control when utilizing this model. MCE::Flow is similar to MCE::Loop, but allows for multiple code blocks to run in parallel with a slight change to syntax.

MCE::Grep

Provides a parallel grep implementation similar to the native grep function.

MCE::Map

Provides a parallel map model similar to the native map function.

MCE::Step

Provides a parallel step implementation utilizing MCE::Queue between user tasks. MCE::Step is a spin off from MCE::Flow with a touch of MCE::Stream. This model, introduced in 1.506, allows one to pass data from one sub-task into the next transparently.

MCE::Stream

Provides an efficient parallel implementation for chaining multiple maps and greps together through user_tasks and MCE::Queue. Like with MCE::Flow, MCE::Stream can run multiple code blocks in parallel with a slight change to syntax from MCE::Map and MCE::Grep.

MISCELLANEOUS

Miscellaneous additions included with the distribution.

MCE::Examples

Describes various demonstrations for MCE including a Monte Carlo simulation.

MCE::Subs

Exports functions mapped directly to MCE methods; e.g. mce_wid. The module allows 3 options; :manager, :worker, and :getter.

REQUIREMENTS

Perl 5.8.0 or later. PDL::IO::Storable is required in scripts running PDL.

Genome Annotation and Functional Genomics

Bergman Lab is actively engaged in the development and application of computational methods to improve the annotation of functional biological features in genome sequences. Bergman Lab work focuses on improving annotation of non-protein-coding regions of the genome including conserved noncoding sequences (CNSs), cis-regulatory modules (CRMs), transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs), transposable elements (TEs) and noncoding RNA (ncRNA) genes. Current projects include improving the (i) annotation of TEs in the fly and yeast genomes, (ii) annotation of CRMs and TFBSs in the fly genome, and (iii) analysis of transposon knockout collections in flies. Research in this area is supported by the EC FP7 programme.
