Mason 0.1.2 – Read Simulator software for Illumina, 454 and Sanger reads

Mason 0.1.2

:: DESCRIPTION

Mason is a read simulator software for Illumina, 454 and Sanger reads. Its features include position specific error rates and base quality values. For Illumina reads, we give a comprehensive analysis with empirical data for the error and quality model. For the other technologies, we use models from the literature. It has been written with performance in mind and can sample reads from large genomes.

MASon rev12 – Reduce the Computing Time of NGS Analysis Pipelines

MASon rev12

:: DESCRIPTION

MASon (Million Alignments in Seconds) is a C++ library that uses high performance architectures to reduce the computing time of NGS analysis pipelines.MASon employs an optimized SW implementation to align NGS reads and exploits graphic cards (CUDA, OpenCL) and CPU vector instructions (SSE, OpenCL). This allows computation of millions of short local pairwise sequence alignments (36bp – 1,000bp) within a few seconds. MASon can be easily integrated into NGS analysis pipelines and allows programmers to optimally utilize modern hardware, ranging from desktop computers to high-end clusters.
