************************ G-BLASTN 1.0 [August 2013] ****************************

G-BLASTN is a GPU-accelerated nucleotide alignment tool based on the widely used NCBI-BLAST.
G-BLASTN can produce exactly the same results as NCBI-BLAST, and it also has very similar user
commands. It also supports a pipeline mode, which can fully utilize the GPU and CPU resources
when handling a batch of medium to large sized queries.

G-BLASTN is free software.

I. Supported features

G-BLASTN accelerates the blastn module of NCBI-BLAST by GPUs. G-BLASTN has been tested on
NVIDIA GPUs GTX680, GTX780, and Quadro K5000.

II. Installation instructions

G-BLASTN directly modifies NCBI-BLAST 2.2.26 by adding GPU functionality. To install G-BLASTN,
you can:

  1. Download gblastn.

  2. 64bit Linux System.
