Abstract

Retrieving homologous sequences from existing databases, for instance, is a fundamental routine for the bioinformatics research community. Programs of the NCBI BLAST family have been widely used for retrieving homologous sequences from existing databases. This article briefly introduces and evaluates a parallelized version of the BLAST algorithm using Message Passing Interface (MPI) on a multi-node compute cluster, paraBLAST and its Web server, CyberparaBLAST. The CyberparaBLAST Web server can be accessed through Web browsers on intranet Web servers. CyberparaBLAST enables the researchers of institutes to query sequence databases in the real time when needed. Parallelized computing together with cyber access make the bioinformatics research more efficient with the aid of CyberparaBLAST.

CyberparaBLAST:并行BLAST Web服务器

例如，从现有数据库中检索同源序列是生物信息学研究界的基本常规。NCBI BLAST家族的程序已广泛用于从现有数据库中检索同源序列。本文简要介绍并评估了在多节点计算集群paraBLAST及其Web服务器CyberparaBLAST上使用消息传递接口(Message Passing Interface, MPI)的并行化版本BLAST算法。CyberparaBLAST Web服务器可以通过内网Web服务器上的Web浏览器访问。CyberparaBLAST使研究人员能够在需要时实时查询序列数据库。并行计算和网络访问使得生物信息学研究在CyberparaBLAST的帮助下更加高效。
