It builds pairwise alignments using the Smith-Waterman algorithm. The alignment algorithm is implemented in C and added in using an XS extension. The XS extension basically comes from the Wise2 package, but has been slimmed down to only be the alignment part of that (this is a good thing!). The XS extension comes from the bioperl-ext package which is distributed along with bioperl. I<Warning:> This package will not work if you have not compiled the bioperl-ext package. The mixture of C and Perl is ideal for this sort of problem. Here are some plus points for this strategy: =over 2 =item Speed and Memory The algorithm is actually implemented in C, which means it is faster than a pure perl implementation (I have never done one, so I have no idea how faster) and will use considerably less memory, as it efficiently assigns memory for the calculation. =item Algorithm efficiency The algorithm was written using Dynamite, and so contains an automatic switch to the linear space divide-and-conquer method. This means you could effectively align very large sequences without killing your machine (it could take a while though!). =back =head1 FEEDBACK =head2 Mailing Lists User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules.
