Harnessing Accelerator Technology for Next-Gen Sequencing Bioinformatics
SESSION: Harnessing Accelerator Technology for Next-Gen Sequencing Bioinformatics
EVENT TYPE: Birds of a Feather
TIME: 12:15PM - 1:15PM
SESSION LEADER(S):Shel Swenson, Srinivas Aluru, David Bader
ROOM:503/504
ABSTRACT:
Next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies enable rich and diverse applications but have found wide gaps between these technologies' potential and current computational reality. Research bridging these gaps delivers broad and immediate impact in both industry and academia. This BoF explores how biological sciences and HPC communities can combine efforts to solve pressing NGS problems using emerging and future computing platforms. Topics include identifying high-impact problems, discussing software-related challenges and building a community research agenda. This BoF part a broader NSF Software Institute Conceptualization project, Software Institute for Accelerating Grand Challenge Science with Future Computing Platforms" (future-compute.usc.edu).
