SPAdes

Introduction

Pavel Pevzsner's de-novo assembler, primarily for - but not restricted to - bacteria.

Installation (Sysadmin notes)

Initially version 3.7.0 was insatlled using the specially compiled gcc/4.9.3 compiler (available as a module). However the -b version of the module now uses REdHats devtoolset-2, so that this compiler is not necessary.

Boost however, is necessary. The cluster has the latest version: 1.60. Possibly compiled (well, the bits that can be compiled) with g++ 4.4.7.

There is no make test nor make check. There is however, this:
