Gene-gene interaction in genetic association studies is computationally intensive when a large number of SNPs are involved. Most of the latest Central Processing Units (CPUs) have multiple cores, whereas Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) also have hundreds of cores and have been recently used to implement faster scientific software. However, currently there are no genetic analysis software packages that allow users to fully utilize the computing power of these multi-core devices for genetic interaction analysis for binary traits.

Here we present a novel software package GENIE, which utilizes the power of multiple GPU or CPU processor cores to parallelize the interaction analysis.

Secure your clients from cyber threats.

Define and Deliver Comprehensive Cybersecurity Services. Security threats continue to grow, and your clients are most likely at risk. Small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are targeted by 64% of all cyberattacks, and 62% of them admit lacking in-house expertise to deal with security issues. Now technology solution providers (TSPs) are a prime target. Enter ConnectWise Cybersecurity Management (formerly ConnectWise Fortify) — the advanced cybersecurity solution you need to deliver the managed detection and response protection your clients require. Whether you’re talking to prospects or clients, we provide you with the right insights and data to support your cybersecurity conversation. From client-facing reports to technical guidance, we reduce the noise by guiding you through what’s really needed to demonstrate the value of enhanced strategy.

User Reviews

  • This program stopped working at CUDA 5.0 and has not been updated. It is a shame because this might be a very useful program. Someone please update it. I do not have the expertise to do this. BTW, to all developers - please consider your program name and make it unique so it is easily googled! I wish the developers of R had done so - have you ever tried to google "R"?
