Distributed and Sequential Algorithms for Bioinformatics

“This volume covers a variety of algorithms-sequential, parallel, and distributed-towards the construction and analysis of biological sequences and networks. … This volume is mostly suited to the computational biologist who wants to learn about the algorithms landscape, both sequential and distributed, both sequential and distributed … .” (Lenwood S. Heath, Mathematical Reviews, March, 2017)

“Because of its clear layout and well-thought-out design, this book is suitable for students and researchers in computer science as well as in biology. It is my sincere hope that it will introduce new groups of researchers to these very important problems and motivate them to look for new and more efficient solutions to them.
