Genome sequence in transpose format to enable coalescent memory access. In MaxSSmap threads with IDs 0 through 3 would at the same time read characters A, G, G, and C of the transposed genome to compare against the read. Since the four characters are in consecutive memory locations and so are the thread IDs, our program makes just one read from global memory instead of four separate ones.
