Abstract

RNAfold predicts the secondary structure of RNA molecules from their base sequence. We apply a mixture of manual and automated genetic improvements to its C source. GI gives a 1.6% improvement to parallel SSE4.1 code. The automatic programming evolutionary system has access to Intel library code and previous revisions. On 4 666 curated structures from RNA STRAND, GGGP gives a combined speed up of 31.9%, with no loss of accuracy (GI code run 1:4 1011 times).
