Portable software related to Mersenne numbers. Useful to automate certain tasks related to GIMPS (www.mersenne.org) for computers that cannot run the GIMPS software for whatever reason. Much of the code has been in use since 1990 or so by a few people. The project web site at https://mers.sourceforge.io/mersenne.html has data about Mersenne numbers from many people generated by this and other software, notably from the GIMPS project.

UniversalMer is a k-mer counting tool for multiple size of k at once. It is available for DNA, RNA, and protein sequences. The program counts and summarizes the exact frequency of all k-mers from 1-mer to a user-defined maximum length (kmax). Analyzing the k-mer spectrum across multiple values of k can be done in seconds. This program is designed for bioinformatics researchers and scientists.

Trowel is an error correction module for Illumina sequencing reads, which is based on the k-mer spectrum approach. This tool is the first tool that uses a quality threshold instead of a coverage cutoff in order to extract trusted k-mers. This tool guarantees high accuracy and speed. This tool has been developed since 21. Jan. 2013 by Euncheon Lim in Prof. Dr. Detlef Weigel's Lab in Max-Planck Institute for Developmental Biology. First of all, you have to install the exact version of boost(>=1.53.0), google sparse hash(>=2.0.2), GCC(>=4.6), autoconf(=2.69), and automake(=1.13).
