  As computer scientists working in bioinformatics/computational biology, we
often face the challenge of coming up with an algorithm to answer a biological
question. This occurs in many areas, such as variant calling, alignment, and
assembly. In this tutorial, we use the example of the genome assembly problem
to demonstrate how to go from a question in the biological realm to a solution
in the computer science realm. We show the modeling process step-by-step,
including all the intermediate failed attempts.
