Splign is a utility for computing cDNA-to-Genomic,
or spliced sequence alignments.
At the heart of the program is a global alignment algorithm
that specifically accounts for introns and splice signals.
It is due to this algorithm that Splign is accurate
in determining splice sites and tolerant to sequencing errors.

On the other side of the tool are Blast post-processing routines.
Splign uses Blast hits to identify possible locations
of genes and their duplications on genomic sequences and
then to speed up the core dynamic programming.
