GSC Accelerates Genome Sequencing with IBM and Linux Solution
White Paper GSC’s scientific compute servers did not provide sufficient capacity to meet researchers’ needs for analysis of genome sequencing data, jeopardizing its position in the medical research industry. GSC deployed a high-speed, consolidated system IBM... [03 Jul 2008]
Whole-Genome DNA Sequencing
White Paper Computation is integrally and powerfully involved with the DNA sequencing technology that promises to reveal the complete human DNA sequence in the next several years. After introducing the latest DNA sequencing methods, this article describes... [03 Jul 2008]
Genomics: the Second Stage of the Revolution
White Paper However, the first step toward sequencing the three billion base pairs of the human genome, and localizing the 80,000-100,000 genes within it, is just a first step. The substantial balance of 95-97 percent is, in essence, DNA clutter not useful for... [03 Jul 2008]
BioProspector: Discovering Conserved DNA Motifs in Upstream Regulatory Regions of Co-Expressed Genes
White Paper The development of genome sequencing and DNA microarray analysis of gene expression gives rise to the demand for data-mining tools. BioProspector, a C program using a Gibbs sampling strategy, examines the upstream region of genes in the same gene... [03 Jul 2008]
BC Cancer Agency Genome Sciences Centre Speeds Biological Breakthroughs by Standardizing on Network Appliance
White Paper Canada's Michael Smith Genome Sciences Centre (GSC) advances cancer research, diagnosis, and treatment via high-throughput genome mapping and DNA sequencing. The bulk of GSC data, including production pipelines for genome mapping and DNA sequencing... [20 Jul 2007]
Data Domain Case Study: Department of Energy Lab
White Paper The client is a Department of Energy lab, which was created in the late 1990s to study genome mapping, DNA sequencing and technology development. Challenged by the need to more rapidly backup and restore 20TB of large genomic data sets, the IT... [18 Aug 2006]
DNA Forensics
White Paper Identifying individuals within a species is less precise at this time, although when DNA sequencing technologies progress farther, direct comparison of very large DNA segments, and possibly even whole genomes, will become feasible and practical... [25 Feb 2004]
