Parallel-META
Parallel-META is a GPGPU and Multi-Core CPU based software which can parallelly analyze massive metagenomic data by 16S rRNA, report the classification, construction and distribution on phylogenetic and taxonomic level.
Parallel-META uses parallel algorithm based on GPGPU and Multi-core CPU for acceleration. We have selected some sample metagenomic data sets and gotten a speed up of more than 18.
Application on Saliva Metagenomic samples of Oral Environment
Application on Ocean Metagenome samples of Global Survey
Currently Parallel-META online has already served for more than 30 research groups worldwide, including research on environmental microbial communities of soil and ocean, human microbiome of oral and gut, methane production, microalgae cultivate system and so on.
