MPSA: integrated system for multiple protein sequence analysis with client/server capabilities.

Abstract

UNLABELLED: MPSA is a stand-alone software intended to protein sequence analysis with a high integration level and Web clients/server capabilities. It provides many methods and tools, which are integrated into an interactive graphical user interface. It is available for most Unix/Linux and non-Unix systems. MPSA is able to connect to a Web server (e.g. http://pbil.ibcp.fr/NPSA) in order to perform large-scale sequence comparison on up-to-date databanks. AVAILABILITY: Free to academic http://www.ibcp.fr/mpsa/ CONTACT: c.blanchet@ibcp.fr

ANDY: a general, fault-tolerant tool for database searching on computer clusters.

SUMMARY: ANDY (seArch coordination aND analYsis) is a set of Perl programs and modules for distributing large biological database searches, and in general any sequence of commands, across the nodes of a Linux computer cluster. ANDY is compatible with several commonly used distributed resource management (DRM) systems, and it can be easily extended to new DRMs. A distinctive feature of ANDY is the choice of either dedicated or fair-use operation: ANDY is almost as efficient as single-purpose tools that require a dedicated cluster, but it runs on a general-purpose cluster along with any other jobs scheduled by a DRM. Other features include communication through named pipes for performance, flexible customizable routines for error-checking and summarizing results, and multiple fault-tolerance mechanisms. AVAILABILITY: ANDY is freely available and can be obtained from http://compbio.berkeley.edu/proj/andy. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplemental data, figures, and a more detailed overview of the software are found at http://compbio.berkeley.edu/proj/andy.

A flexible infrastructure for delivering augmented reality enabled transcranial magnetic stimulation.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is the process in which electrical activity in the brain is influenced by a pulsed magnetic field. Common practice is to align an electromagnetic coil with points of interest identified on the surface of the brain, from an MRI scan of the subject. The coil can be tracked using optical sensors, enabling the targeting information to be calculated and displayed on a local workstation. In this paper we explore the hypothesis that using an Augmented Reality (AR) interface for TMS will improve the efficiency of carrying out the procedure. We also aim to provide a flexible infrastructure that if required, can seamlessly deploy processing power from a remote high performance computing resource.
