Abstract: Unlabelled: Multi-netclust is a simple tool that allows users to extract connected clusters of data represented by different networks given in the form of matrices. The tool uses user-defined threshold values to combine the matrices, and uses a straightforward, memory-efficient graph algorithm to find clusters that are connected in all or in either of the networks. The tool is written in C/C++ and is available either as a form-based or as a command-line-based program running on Linux platforms. The algorithm is fast, processing a network of > 10(6) nodes and 10(8) edges takes only a few minutes on an ordinary computer.<br />Availability: http://www.bioinformatics.nl/netclust/.
