5. Scaling bio-analysis from computational clusters to grids

Life sciences have moved rapidly into ‘big data’ thanks to new parallel methods for gene expression, genome-wide association, proteomics and whole genome DNA sequencing. The scale of these methods is growing faster than predicted by Moore’s law. This has introduced new challenges and needs for methods for specifying computation protocols for e.g. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and...

Science gateways provide user interfaces and high-level services to access and manage applications and data collections on distributed resources. They facilitate users to perform data analysis on distributed computing infrastructures (DCIs) without getting involved into the technical details. The e-BioInfra Gateway is a science gateway for biomedical data analysis on a national grid...

7. A GEANT4 Web-based Application to Support Intra-Operative Electron Radio-Therapy using the European Grid Infrastructure

Giuseppe La Rocca (INFN)

Radiotherapy techniques permit to deliver ionizing radiations (X-rays, photons, electrons, protons, etc) inside cancerous tissues to kill the abnormal cells. Radiotherapy related activities, as the optimization of the therapeutic radiation dose to the patient, worker radioprotection, performance controls and technical innovations of linear accelerators, are strongly based on the ability to...

8. User-friendly workflows in quantum chemistry

Sonja Herres-Pawlis (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München)

Quantum chemical workflows can be built up within the science gateway MoSGrid (Molecular Simulation Grid). Complex workflows required by the endusers are dissected into smaller workflows which can be combined freely to larger meta-workflows. General quantum chemical workflows are described here as well as the real use case of a spectroscopic analysis resulting in an enduser desired...
