This page tells you how to download and install
the software under the Unix (and Linux) platform.
The current release of our software is based on Unix/Linux.
In addition, our software uses some third party software.
In order to use our software,
make sure that the following utility programs are available in your system.
- make
- gcc/g++
- bash (GNU bash)
- gnuplot (GNU gnuplot 3.7)
To cater for your own need,
you can choose to download one of the following four packages
-
MSP module only (msp.tar.gz)
This package contains the programs that identify all
Maximal Substring Pairs between two input sequences.
-
MSP module + MaxMin Clustering (msp_maxmin.tar.gz)
This package combines the MSP module and the MaxMin clustering program.
It also includes a utility to generate graphical representations of the clustering output.
To install the software, you can just follow the instructions below.
(Suppose you have downloaded the file msp.tar.gz)
- Unzip the file by typing
gunzip msp.tar.gz. You will get msp.tar.
- Extract the file by typing
tar xvf msp.tar. You will get 3 directories (data,
sample and source)
and two files (Makefile and msp.sh)
- The data directory stores the data files of the experiments.
- The sample directory stores the sample input and output files.
- The source directory stores all the source codes and the scripts for the software.
- The msp.sh is the script to execute the programs.
- The Makefile is for compilation.
