Abstract
We have implemented exhaustive genetic sequence alignment codes on a v ariety of high performance computers. In this article, we compare and contrast the implementation issues encountered on different high perfo rmance computer architecture and the approaches used to overcome these problems. In addition, we discuss advanced sequence alignment techniq ues, including context sensitive and multiple sequence alignments.
