High Performance Biocomputation

Abstract

This section summarizes the conclusions and recommendations of the 2004 JASON summer study commissioned by the Department of Energy (DOE) to explore the opportunities and challenges presented by applying advanced computational power and methodology to problems in the biological sciences. JASON was tasked to investigate the current suite of computationally intensive problems as well as potential future endeavors. JASON was also tasked to consider bow advanced computational capability and capacity could best be brought to bear on bioscience problems and to explore how different computing approaches such as Grid computing, supercomputing, cluster computing or custom architectures might map onto interesting biological problems
