Many-Core Engine (MCE) for Perl example
MCE spawns a pool of workers and therefore does not fork a new process per each element of data. Instead, MCE follows a bank queuing model. Imagine the line being the data and bank-tellers the parallel workers. MCE enhances that model by adding the ability to chunk the next n elements from the in...Tags: Bioinformatics, Programming, Perl, MCE, Parallel, Core, Thread, Fork

Snippy: Rapid haploid variant calling and core SNP phylogeny
Snippy finds SNPs between a haploid reference genome and your NGS sequence reads. It will find both substitutions (snps) and insertions/deletions (indels). It will use as many CPUs as you can give it on a single computer (tested to 64 cores). It is designed with speed in mind, and produces a cons...Tags: Snippy, Rapid, haploid, variant, calling, core, SNP, phylogeny, bacteria
