Database peptide search is the primary computational technique for identifying peptides from the mass spectrometry (MS) data. Graphical Processing Units (GPU) computing is now ubiquitous in the current-generation of high-performance computing (HPC) systems, yet its application in the database peptide search domain remains limited. Part of the reason is the use of sub-optimal algorithms in the existing GPU-accelerated methods resulting in significantly inefficient hardware utilization. In this paper, we design and implement a new-age CPU-GPU HPC framework, called GiCOPS, for efficient and complete GPU-acceleration of the modern database peptide search algorithms on supercomputers. Our experimentation shows that the GiCOPS exhibits between 1.2 to 5 × speed improvement over its CPU-only predecessor, HiCOPS, and over 10 × improvement over several existing GPU-based database search algorithms for sufficiently large experiment sizes. We further assess and optimize the performance of our framework using the Roofline Model and report near-optimal results for several metrics including computations per second, occupancy rate, memory workload, branch efficiency and shared memory performance. Finally, the CPU-GPU methods and optimizations proposed in our work for complex integer- and memory-bounded algorithmic pipelines can also be extended to accelerate the existing and future peptide identification algorithms. GiCOPS is now integrated with our umbrella HPC framework HiCOPS and is available at: https://github.com/pcdslab/gicops. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
