Large-scale comparison of genomic DNA is of fundamental importance in annotating functional elements of genomes. To perform large comparisons efficiently, BLAST (Methods: Companio...
This paper addresses the efficient processing of similarity queries in metric spaces, where data is horizontally distributed across a P2P network. The proposed approach does not r...
The existing predictive spatiotemporal indexes can be classified into two categories, depending on whether they are based on the primal or dual methodology. Although we have gaine...
In this paper we present the results of parallelizing two life sciences applications, Markov random fieldsbased (MRF) liver segmentation and HMMER’s Viterbi algorithm, using GP...

Metric access methods (MAMs) serve as a tool for speeding similarity queries. However, all MAMs developed so far are index-based; they need to build an index on a given database. T...
