Bioinformatics. 2011 Oct 15;27(20):2907-9. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btr478. Epub 2011 Aug 27.

Abstract

Summary: KNIME (Konstanz Information Miner) is a user-friendly and comprehensive open-source data integration, processing, analysis and exploration platform. We present here new functionality and workflows that open the door to performing next-generation sequencing analysis using the KNIME framework.

Availability: All sources and compiled code are available via the KNIME update mechanism. Example workflows and descriptions are available through http://tech.knime.org/community/next-generation-sequencing.
