The only single, up-to-date source for Grid issues in
bioinformatics and biology
Bioinformatics is fast emerging as an important discipline for
academic research and industrial applications, creating a need for
the use of Grid computing techniques for large-scale distributed
applications. This book successfully presents Grid algorithms and
their real-world applications, provides details on modern and
ongoing research, and explores software frameworks that integrate
bioinformatics and computational biology.
Additional coverage includes:
* Bio-ontology and data mining
* Data visualization
* DNA assembly, clustering, and mapping
* Molecular evolution and phylogeny
* Gene expression and micro-arrays
* Molecular modeling and simulation
* Sequence search and alignment
* Protein structure prediction
* Grid infrastructure, middleware, and tools for bio data
Grid Computing for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology is an
indispensable resource for professionals in several research and
development communities including bioinformatics, computational
biology, Grid computing, data mining, and more. It also serves as
an ideal textbook for undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in
bioinformatics and Grid computing.
