Section: Overall Objectives

Highlights of the Year

• Creation of KoriScale, an Inria Innovation Laboratory (I-LAB) to promote technology transfers between GenScale and the Korilog Company. The research thematic is focusing on intensive genomic sequence comparison. It covers innovative string algorithm aspects together with multi-level parallelism implementation. [Letter in Emergences]

• For the 2nd consecutive year the GenScale team won the best poster award from the annual Jobim conference. We demonstrate the efficiency of our low memory footprint NGS assembly tools to assemble the C. Elegans genome on the Raspberry Pi board, a very low cost computer (< $ 50) equipped with limited memory resources (512 MB). [42] [Letter in Emergences]
