Developing eThread Pipeline Using SAGA-Pilot Abstraction for Large-Scale Structural Bioinformatics

Table 6

Summary of benchmark results for time-to-solution (TTS) and cost-to-solution (CTS). The 20-sequence data set is used. Among the complete benchmark experimental results obtained for all threading tools, we chose three threading tools here for the sake of space. TTS is in minutes and CTS is in US dollars based on the pricing as of this writing.
