Application Porting and Deployment

Oral

Tasks are submitted via web and parallelized into thousands or even millions of CPU-bound jobs ranging from a few seconds to a few minutes long. Efficient and reliable execution is complicated due to unbounded queuing times, high execution and scheduling overheads, high job failure rates and insufficient scalability of the EGEE middleware. Our solution is to first submit lightweight clients...

25. TriAnnotPipelineGRID, a tool for the automated annotation of wheat BAC sequences

A long term project of the IWGSC is to sequence the wheat genome to decipher the chromosomal location and biological function of all genes. This knowledge should enhance the understanding of the biology of the wheat plant and create a new paradigm for the improvement of this major crop. Because of the genetic and metabolic conservation among species in the grass family,efforts to decipher gene...

121. High-throughput GRID application for Life Sciences: The Gene Analogue Finder

Scientific Results Obtained Using Grid Technology

Oral

The algorithm is a very high data and data-access intensive application. The results of the functional analogous search demonstrates that the information contained by the GO is adequate to run such analysis using the gene production description. For example most of the homologous gene products of most of the model organisms were assigned as functional analogues, although the annotations were...

166. BioinfoGRID: Bioinformatics Grid applications for life science

The BioinfoGRID adopt high-level user interfaces, common to all the different BioinfoGRID applications, in order to exploit the Grid services provided within European Grid Infrastructures using a more user-friendly approach. One of the activities within the project was to develop a Bioinformatics Portal, to simplify the services request and the jobs submission to the Grid, including the...
