An Analysis on Scalable GPU Implementation of Minimap2 for Long Read Alignment

EasyChair Preprint 10933

Abstract

Scalability is a paramount requirement in genomics research, especially when dealing with large and complex genomic datasets. In this article, we explore the development of scalable GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) implementations of Minimap2, a versatile tool for long read alignment. These scalable implementations empower efficient and accurate alignment of long reads to reference genomes, facilitating the analysis of extensive genomic datasets.
