[Bioperl-l] SWAT Implementation

[Aaron J. Mackey]

The FASTA search suite includes the "reference" implementation of 
Smith-Waterman, called "ssearch"; ssearch in fact implements the SWAT 
optimization, while the program "osearch" implements the "traditional" 
S-W algorithm.  You can find the code for each in dropnsw.c (normal 
smith waterman) and dropgsw.c (green smith waterman) from the FASTA 
pacakge (ftp://ftp.virginia.edu/pub/fasta/).
