European molecular biology: Computing facilities for EMBL

Interactive molecular biology computing.

It is clear that the selection of the best possible algorithm for a computer program is essential for the creation of a useful tool. After this first step is taken, however, the usefulness of such a program may be greatly enhanced or impeded by the way it is implemented. We illustrate this point by describing our implementation of the well known FASTP/FASTIN algorithm in an interactive software...

EMBL Programme 2017-2021: Digital Biology

The European Molecular Biology Laboratory

What is it famous for? Being a successful, truly European research centre — still a very rare species. Early plans for EMBL were much influenced by the most famous of the species, the Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucleaire (CERN), and by Leo Szilard, a nuclear physicist turned molecular biologist. Where is it? About 80% of EMBL group leaders are at the main centre, on top of a beautiful b...

BioGRID - An European grid testbed for molecular biology

Recent advances in computer technology, especially grid tools makes them good candidate for development of user interfaces to computing programs and resources [1]. Computational grids enable sharing a wide variety of geographically distributed resources and allow selection and aggregation of them across multiple organizations for solving large scale computational and data intensive problems in ...
