Recently, AccelerEyes held a free webinar that dealt with accelerating genomics MATLAB applications on the GPU. We recently added new genomics examples to Jacket, and wanted to use this webinar to showcase these examples and run through some code. This was part of the free series of AccelerEyes webinars that provide a great opportunity for you to interact with AccelerEyes engineers, see demos executing live on GPUs, and learn about AccelerEyes products and services. Over the course of the last decade, GPUs have continued to advance at a large pace, and are leaving CPUs behind in some ways, specifically in terms of their ability to perform massively parallel computations. Jacket is proven to be very efficient at harnessing this ability …
