BarraCUDA is a C program which uses the BWA algorithm in parallel with nVidia CUDA to align short next generation DNA sequences against a reference genome. The genetically improved (GI) code is up to three times faster on short paired end reads from The 1000 Genomes Project and 60percent more accurate on a short BioPlanet.com GCAT alignment benchmark. GPGPU Barracuda running on a single K80 Tesla GPU can align short paired end nextgen sequences up to ten times faster than bwa on a 12 core CPU.
