• A scalable solution for finding overlaps between sequences using map-reduce 

      Haj Rachid, Maan; Malluhi, Qutaibah M. ( The International Society for Computers and Their Applications (ISCA) , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      The overlap stage of a string graph-based assembler is considered one of the most time- and space-consuming stages in any de novo overlap-based assembler. This is due to the huge output of the next-generation sequencing ...
    • An Enhanced Dynamic-programming Technique For Finding Approximate Overlaps 

      Haj Rachid, Maan; Malluhi, Qutaibah ( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2014 , Conference Paper)
      The next generation sequencing technology creates a huge number of sequences (reads), which constitute the input for genome assemblers. After prefiltering the sequences, it is required to detect exact overlaps between the ...
