=====

NVBIO is a library of reusable components designed by NVIDIA Corporatin to accelerate bioinformatics applications using CUDA.

Though it is specifically designed to unleash the power of NVIDIA GPUs,

most of its components are completely cross-platform and can be used both from host C++ and device CUDA code.

The purpose of NVBIO is twofold: it can be thought of both as a solid basis to build new, modern applications targeting

GPUs, which deferring the core computations to a library will always automatically and transparently benefit from new

advances in GPU computing, and as example material to design novel bioinformatics algorithms for massively parallel architectures.

Additionally, NVBIO contains a suite of applications built on top of it, including a re-engineered implementation of the famous

Bowtie2 short read aligner.

Unlike many prototypes, nvBowtie is an attempt to build an industrial strength aligner, reproducing most of Bowtie2's

original features as well as adding a few more, such as efficient support for direct BAM (and soon CRAM) output.
