General information (outdated)

I'm a Canadian Institutes of Health Research -funded doctoral student. I utilize the message passing interface to solve computational problems in genomics.

My main software projects:

• Ray, a assembler and profiler for genomes, metagenomes and transcriptomes (in C++ 1998) http://denovoassembler.sourceforge.net/
• RayPlatform (in C++ 1998), a framework and engine to build massively distributed apps http://github.com/sebhtml/RayPlatform
• Ray Cloud Browser demo (Javascript, HTML5, JSON, C++ 1998), a graph browser in the cloud https://github.com/sebhtml/Ray-Cloud-Browser

I started using Linux in 2003 with Red Hat 9. I am currently using Fedora 17 on a Thinkpad x230.

I am interested in the Fedora Science and Technology Special Interest Group.
