15 =head1 NAME
17 Bio::Tools::pSW - pairwise Smith Waterman object
19 =head1 SYNOPSIS
21 use Bio::Tools::pSW;
22 use Bio::AlignIO;
23 my $factory = Bio::Tools::pSW->new( '-matrix' => 'blosum62.bla',
24 '-gap' => 12,
25 '-ext' => 2,
28 #use the factory to make some output
30 $factory->align_and_show($seq1,$seq2,STDOUT);
32 # make a Bio::SimpleAlign and do something with it
34 my $aln = $factory->pairwise_alignment($seq1,$seq2);
35 my $alnout = Bio::AlignIO->new(-format => 'msf',
36 -fh => \*STDOUT);
38 $alnout->write_aln($aln);
40 =head1 INSTALLATION
42 This module is included with the central Bioperl distribution:
44 http://bio.perl.org/Core/Latest
45 ftp://bio.perl.org/pub/DIST
47 Follow the installation instructions included in the INSTALL file.
49 =head1 DESCRIPTION
51 pSW is an Alignment Factory for protein sequences. It builds pairwise
52 alignments using the Smith-Waterman algorithm. The alignment algorithm is
53 implemented in C and added in using an XS extension. The XS extension basically
54 comes from the Wise2 package, but has been slimmed down to only be the
55 alignment part of that (this is a good thing!). The XS extension comes
56 from the bioperl-ext package which is distributed along with bioperl.
57 I<Warning:> This package will not work if you have not compiled the
58 bioperl-ext package.
60 The mixture of C and Perl is ideal for this sort of
61 problem. Here are some plus points for this strategy:
63 =over 2
65 =item Speed and Memory
67 The algorithm is actually implemented in C, which means it is faster than
68 a pure perl implementation (I have never done one, so I have no idea
69 how faster) and will use considerably less memory, as it efficiently
70 assigns memory for the calculation.
72 =item Algorithm efficiency
74 The algorithm was written using Dynamite, and so contains an automatic
75 switch to the linear space divide-and-conquer method. This means you
76 could effectively align very large sequences without killing your machine
77 (it could take a while though!).

81 =head1 FEEDBACK
83 =head2 Mailing Lists
85 User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
86 Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one
87 of the Bioperl mailing lists. Your participation is much appreciated.
89 bioperl-l@bioperl.org - General discussion
90 http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists - About the mailing lists
92 =head2 Support
94 Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
96 I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>
98 rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
99 reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly
100 address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem
101 with code and data examples if at all possible.
103 =head2 Reporting Bugs
105 Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
106 the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the
107 web:
