Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer programs for analyzing genetic sequence data is disclosed. In one aspect, the system can include one or more of a first integrated circuit, with each first integrated circuit forming a central processing unit (CPU) that is responsive to one or more software algorithms that are configured to instruct the CPU to perform a first set of genomic processing steps of a sequence analysis pipeline. Additionally, the system can include one or more second integrated circuits, with each second integrated circuit forming a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The FPGA can be configured by firmware to arrange a set of hardwired digital logic circuits to perform a second set of genomic processing stages of the sequence analysis pipeline, the set of hardwired digital logic circuits of each FPGA being arranged as a set of processing engines to perform the second set of genomic processing stages.
