A High-Throughput and Extensible Toolkit for Processing FASTQ Data


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

High-throughput extensible toolkit for processing FASTQ data. The goal of this package is to empower users to quickly build out small programmatic 'kernels' to define any FASTQ processing task they may need. Builds on Intel TBB’s flow graph to orchestrate concurrent I/O and data processing; throughput can be as fast as compression and disk speed allows. The package also ships with a suite of predefined kernels for common FASTQ tasks.
