Abstract: Methods, processes, and particularly computer implemented processes and computer program products are provided for use in the analysis of genetic sequence data. The processes and products are employed in the assembly of shorter nucleic acid sequence data into longer linked and preferably contiguous genetic constructs, including large contigs, chromosomes and whole genomes.

Abstract: Determination of a nucleic acid sequence using sequence reads of the nucleic acid. The reads, in sets of reads, include a first portion for a subset of the nucleic acid and a common second portion identifying a reaction partition that formed the read, where the partition has the subset of the nucleic acid in the form of a fragment. A set of k-mers is created for a read, with identifiers of the source reads for each k-mer are retained. The k-mers are used to determine whether to derive a contig sequence representative of the nucleic acid, where the contig comprises an origin node comprising a first set of overlapping k-mers and one of a first destination node comprising a second set of overlapping k-mers and a second destination node comprising a third set of overlapping k-mers. The sequence of the nucleic acid is assembled using at least the contig.

Abstract: Computer systems obtain sets of entities. Each entity includes (i) a unique portion for a subset of a source entity and (ii) a common portion forming an identifier independent of the source and identifying a unit, in a plurality of units, that formed the entity. Each set is formed in a unit. Each unit includes one or more portions of the source that is used as the basis for each entity in the unit. A set of pieces of length k is created for each entity. The entity identifier for each piece is retained. k is less than the length of the entities. Each set includes at least eighty percent of the pieces of length k of the first portion of the corresponding entity. There is tracked, for each piece, an identity of each entity that contains the piece and the identifier of the set of entities containing the entities.
