* Package name : examl Version : 3.0.18 Upstream Author : Alexandros Stamatakis <alexandros.stamata...@epfl.ch> * URL : https://github.com/stamatak/ExaML * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : Exascale Maximum Likelihood (ExaML) code for phylogenetic inference Exascale Maximum Likelihood (ExaML) is a code for phylogenetic inference using MPI. This code implements the popular RAxML search algorithm for maximum likelihood based inference of phylogenetic trees. . ExaML is a strapped-down light-weight version of RAxML for phylogenetic inference on huge datasets. It can only execute some very basic functions and is intended for computer-savvy users that can write little perl-scripts and have experience using queue submission scripts for clusters. ExaML only implements the CAT and GAMMA models of rate heterogeneity for binary, DNA, and protein data. . ExaML uses a radically new MPI parallelization approach that yields improved parallel efficiency, in particular on partitioned multi-gene or whole-genome datasets. It also implements a new load balancing algorithm that yields better parallel efficiency. . It is up to 4 times faster than its predecessor RAxML-Light and scales to a larger number of processors.
