  ABSTRACT: We describe parallel implementation of the metaheuristic approach to the problem of comparing strings representing DNA sequence. By this approach, one can define a whole new class of metrics on a set of strings; some of this metrics can lead to interesting results when used for string comparison. We propose several heuristics; compare results achieved when using those heuristics and compare parallel and sequential implementation of proposed approach.
