Real-Time Primer Design for DNA Chips
نویسندگان
چکیده
The design of PCR or DNA Chip experiments is a time consuming process where bioinformatics is extensively used. The selection of the primers, which are immobilized on the DNA chip, requires a complex algorithm. Based on several parameters an optimized set of primers is automatically detected for a given gene sequence. This paper describes a parallel architecture which performs the optimization of the primer selection on a hardware accelerator. In contrast to the pure software approach, the parallel architecture gains a speedup of factor 500 using a PCI based hardware accelerator. This approach allows an optimization of a specified primer set in real-time.
