Conference Paper Description

The binning of metagenomic sequences is one of crucial steps in metagenomic projects which allow the study of uncultured organisms. Although the projects need to analyze a huge amount of data, most available binning methods run in single mode, and thus require much processing time. This paper proposes a parallel binning algorithm for metagenomic sequences without reference databases. The method is able to utilize the strength of computing clusters and shared-memory multiprocessing systems by using MPI and OpenMP techniques. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms a single-mode binning algorithm in the aspect of computational performance while still achieving similar classification quality.
