Yes indeed.

At BOSC/ISMB last month we were discussing closer collaborations with the 
other Open Bio FOundation projects.

One of these is BioManyCores which is aiming at OpenCL programming but is 
currently concentrating on CUDA.

When our new workstations are delivered we will be looking into CUDA.

Which applications would you most like to speed up? (current EMBOSS 
programs, and suggestions for new ones)
