Summary: We present the first parallel implementation of the
T-Coffee consistency-based multiple aligner. We benchmark it on
the Amazon Elastic Cloud (EC2) and show that the parallelization
procedure is reasonably effective. We also conclude that for a web
server with moderate usage (10K hits/month) the cloud provides a
cost-effective alternative to in-house deployment.
