Hassan Kehinde Bello, Kazeem Alagbe Gbolagade . Residue Number System: An Important Application in Bioinformatics. International Journal of Computer Applications. 179, 10 ( Jan 2018), 28-33. DOI=10.5120/ijca2018916106
This paper presents an overview and comprehensive survey of Residue Number System (RNS) and Bioinformatics. It focuses on application of RNS to Smith-Waterman Algorithm (SWA), highlights how the inherent attributes of RNS can be applied to improve performance of SWA in the analysis of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) and also observes the two principal methods of data conversion and lastly, we suggest the direction for future research.
