Description : library to support DNA string matching and comparative genomics
libMems is a freely available software development library to support DNA
string matching and comparative genomics. Among other things, libMems
implements an algorithm to perform approximate multi-MUM and multi-MEM
identification. The algorithm uses spaced seed patterns in conjunction
with a seed-and-extend style hashing method to identify matches. The method
is efficient, requiring a maximum of only 16 bytes per base of the largest
input sequence, and this data can be stored externally (i.e. on disk) to
further reduce memory requirements.
Remark; This library is packaged by the Debian Med team as a
precondition of the Mauve multiple genome alignment package at
git://anonscm.debian.org/debian-med/libmems.git
