Author vii Abstract The advance of genome analysis bound to next-generation sequencing has allowed scientists to conduct research to deeper understand the biological structure of organisms. A problem of computationally demanding genome assembly based on a high volume of sequence reads is introduced. Several sequential solutions for de novo genome assembly are reviewed. Two fundamental types of genome assembly approaches exist, the sequence reconstruction via de Bruijn graph and the overlap graph method. We focus on parallelization of the genome assembly task using the overlap graph approach and the utilization of Apache Spark big data engine. We demonstrate that subtasks of genome assembly can be parallelized and computed in a distributed manner.

Results: In this paper, we develop a de Bruijn assembler, called Clover (clustering‑ oriented de novo assembler), that utilizes a novel k‑mer clustering approach from the overlap‑layout‑consensus concept to deal with the sequencing errors generated by the Illumina platform. We further evaluate Clover’s performance against several de Bruijn graph assemblers (ABySS, SOAPdenovo, SPAdes and Velvet), overlap‑layout‑con‑ sensus assemblers (Bambus2, CABOG and MSR‑CA) and string graph assembler (SGA) on three datasets (Staphylococcus aureus, Rhodobacter sphaeroides and human chromo‑ some 14). The results show that Clover achieves a superior assembly quality in terms of corrected N50 and E‑size while remaining a signifcantly competitive in run time except SOAPdenovo. In addition, Clover was involved in the sequencing projects of bacterial genomes Acinetobacter baumannii TYTH‑1 and Morganella morganii KT.

  • A Nybble on the Apple, April 1977, BYTE Magazine
    A Nybble .on the Apple capabilities, I suggested that we sit down and implement a "Color Eater" algorithm with Apple-II's integer BASIC interpreter with color graphics extensions. I had first seen the Color Eater program demonstrated in an advanced graphics research laboratory late in 1975 (the idea of the program is not original with me, and I will provide the source upon request). The Color Eater always lives in the matrix in the color TV display at some point. The Color Eater is a very simple animal. It looks at its nearest neighbors in the color matrix, searching in a clockwise direction for its current "digestible" color. If it finds this color, it moves its location to the matrix position oJ that color, digests it into a new color, and reiterates its search. Occasionally, the Color Eater becomes a very frustrated little animal. It eats itself into a corner and no longer is able to find any digestible colors . When this catastrophe happens, it throws a fit and turns itself into another variety of Color Eater which can eat itself out of the frustration point. The result is a constantly changing random color pattern on the screen, illustrated in one state in this photo made with the Apple-II computer's output to a standard color television. That evening last November, Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and I sat down and Notes by Carl Helmers proceeded to use the Apple-II BASIC (which is a 5 K interpreter with 16 bit integer arithmetic) to program the Color Eater Next month, we'll have an article by Steve game.
