+SSAHA is a software tool for very fast matching and alignment of DNA
+sequences. It stands for Sequence Search and Alignment by Hashing
+Algorithm. It achieves its fast search speed by converting sequence
+information into a `hash table' data structure, which can then be
+searched very rapidly for matches.
