Analysis of the bioinformatics grid technique applications in China

Abstract

Grid computing has been playing key roles in the area of scientific computing. The two main computing grids in China are CNGrid (China National Grid) and ChinaGrid. This paper introduces these two main grids and their corresponding key technique, the architecture of grid middleware of bioinformatics applications, the bioinformatics service of these two grids, and then compares the two main grids and points out the future works
