The first nanopore sequencer available, the MinION™ from Oxford Nanopore Technologies, is a USB-connected, portable device that allows real-time DNA analysis. In addition, other new instruments are expected to be released soon, which promise to outperform the current short-read technologies in terms of throughput. Despite the flood of data expected from this technology, the data analysis solutions currently available are only designed to manage small projects and are not scalable. RESULTS: Here we present HPG Pore, a toolkit for exploring and analysing nanopore sequencing data. HPG Pore can run on both individual computers and in the Hadoop distributed computing framework, which allows easy scale-up to manage the large amounts of data expected to result from extensive use of nanopore technologies in the future. CONCLUSIONS: HPG Pore allows for virtually unlimited sequencing data scalability, thus guaranteeing its continued management in near future scenarios. HPG Pore is available in GitHub at http://github.com/opencb/hpg-pore .</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martinez, Hector</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tárraga, Joaquín</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Medina, Ignacio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barrachina, Sergio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Castillo, Maribel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dopazo, Joaquin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quintana-Orti, Enrique S</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Concurrent and Accurate Short Read Mapping on Multicore Processors.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics / IEEE, ACM</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HPC</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NGS</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">short real mapping</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015 Sep-Oct</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?tp=&amp;arnumber=7010005</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">995-1007</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We introduce a parallel aligner with a work-flow organization for fast and accurate mapping of RNA sequences on servers equipped with multicore processors. Our software, [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text] is an open-source application. The software is available at http://www.opencb.org, exploits a suffix array to rapidly map a large fraction of the RNA fragments (reads), as well as leverages the accuracy of the Smith-Waterman algorithm to deal with conflictive reads. The aligner is enhanced with a careful strategy to detect splice junctions based on an adaptive division of RNA reads into small segments (or seeds), which are then mapped onto a number of candidate alignment locations, providing crucial information for the successful alignment of the complete reads. The experimental results on a platform with Intel multicore technology report the parallel performance of [Formula: see text], on RNA reads of 100-400 nucleotides, which excels in execution time/sensitivity to state-of-the-art aligners such as TopHat 2+Bowtie 2, MapSplice, and STAR.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
