ClustalW是一种用于比对多个蛋白质或核苷酸序列的工具。通过三个步骤实现对齐：成对对齐，引导树生成和渐进对齐。ClustalW-MPI是ClustalW的分布式并行实现。所有三个步骤都被并行化以减少执行时间。该软件使用一个称为MPI（消息传递接口）的消息传递库，并在分布式工作站集群和传统的并行计算机上运行。
ClustalW is a tool for aligning multiple protein or nucleotide sequences. The alignment is achieved via three steps: pairwise alignment, guide-tree generation and progressive alignment. ClustalW-MPI is a distributed and parallel implementation of ClustalW. All three steps have been parallelized to reduce the execution time. The software uses a message-passing library called MPI (Message Passing Interface) and runs on distributed workstation clusters as well as on traditional parallel computers.
