I. INTRODUCTION
Does someone have an idea of how much memory would velvet require for a given input of short reads?

II. DOCUMENTATION
Usage:

Read Size - Read size in bp (base pairs)
Genome Size - Genome size in Mbp (megabase pairs)
Number of reads - Number of reads in millions(integer number)
k - k-mer size (parameter of Velvet)

The regression equation should be fairly valid for the following ranges:
K(velvet parameter) = 15 - 31.
Numreads = 5 - 70 million.
Genome size = 2 - 10 Megabases.
Read length (size) = 20 - 75 bases. 

III. CONTACT INFO
