Computational Biology Application Suite for High Performance Computing
About
BioHPC
BioHPC is a suite of computational biology
applications adapted to high-performance computing environment with a
very easy to use, intuitive, web-based interface. It provides:
- Web-based, point-and-click access to a variety of bioinformatics
applications with the underlying structure of computational platform
transparent to the user
- Enhancement of standard applications through parallelization,
transparent to the user
- Web-based administration of users, jobs, applications, and
clusters within the suite
- Standardized access to and maintenance of bioinformatics
databases
BioHPC is designed to be operated by the users that are not
experienced in HPC, web servers, clusters and such. It can be installed
on a small scale cluster in a biological lab, and then provide easy
access via web interface for lab members. It can be installed in a large
infrastructure system (like in CBSU) and provide a portal for
integrating many different, sometimes geographically distant,
computational resources.
