Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

In its early development, Grid computing has focused on providing the computational power necessary for solving computationally intensive scientific problems. However, the scientific process in the life sciences is less demanding on computational power but contains a high degree of inherent heterogeneity, and semantic and task complexity. The myGrid project has developed a Grid-enabled middleware framework to manage this complexity associated with the scientific process within the bioinformatics domain. The Drug Discovery Process is an example of a complex scientific problem which involves managing vast amounts of information. The technology developed by the myGrid project is applicable for managing many aspects of drug development by leveraging its technology for data storage, workflow enactment, change event notification, resource discovery and provenance management.
