Integrated resource management framework for bio-grid computing

Abstract

Computing grid is a promising platform that provides plenty of resource for large scientific computing applications. To achieve the performance of applications in the grid environment, careful resource management is needed. Protein alignment analysis, a typical bio-grid computing application, is a computing intensive, data parallel application, which needs data storage resources and large computing resources. This paper proposes an integrated resource management framework for bio-grid computing. We demonstrate that this kind of applications can benefit from resource management framework
