Advancements in RNASeqGUI towards a Reproducible Analysis of RNA-Seq Experiments

Table 1

Time (in seconds) necessary to execute the counting procedure for RNA-Seq reads on two example datasets (mouse and Drosophila datasets). On the rows are represented two datasets used for the read counting step and the columns indicate if the parallel computing was used or not, on two different machines. The test was performed on a desktop personal computer with Intel [email protected] GHz and 24 GB of RAM, running Ubuntu 14.04 and on a Cluster node composed of 12 cores of Intel Xeon [email protected] GHz, with 64 GB of RAM running CentOS release 6.5.
