Hi -
 
We have traditionally done pairwise alignments using HMMs. However there have been numerous requests for an implementation of Smith-Waterman. If you want some help coverting your classes to biojava give us a yell on the list.

	Hello,
	
	I am working on a Java package of implementations of sequence alignment
	algorithms. I have released an implementation of Smith-Waterman
	algorithm with Gotoh's improvement. The time complexity is O(n2) and the
	space complexity is O(m * n + n) .
	
	The package name is JAligner and it is hosted at sourceforge.net
	<http://jaligner.sourceforge.net>. There is a front-end demo using Swing
	and Java Web Start.
	
	Could JAligner be incorporated into the BioJava project?
	
	Best Regards,
	
	Ahmed
