Title: Sequence matching in large DNA databases

Paper: An efficient approach for sequence matching in large DNA databases,
Jung-Im Won, Sanghyun Park, Jee-Hee Yoon, Sang-Wook Kim


Abstract:

A basic way to understand a DNA sequence is to infer its characteristics by
comparing it to DNA sequences whose characteristics are already known. A
DNA database contains a huge volume of DNA sequences and efficient
processing is very important. DNA sequence matching finds DNA sequences
whose base arrangement is similar to the sequence given in a query from the
database. In this talk, a query processing algorithm for DNA sequence
matching will be presented.
