Community-driven computational biology with Debian Linux

The Linux Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux

Computational Biology: Unix/Linux, Data Processing and Programming

The aim of this book is to ‘give exactly the sort of introduction into Unix, Unix-based operating systems and programming languages that will be a key competence for experimentally working molecular biologists’. The book, written for complete beginners — not necessarily biologists, consists of four parts, and contains 12 chapters, an appendix, 19 figures and 12 tables. It is well laid out, with...

A graphical installation system for the GNU/Linux Debian distribution

Debian GNU/Linux as a Japanese language teaching tool

The present paper has two purposes. First, to provide some basic information about Debian, together with some background information concerning free software, for the readers who never heard about this distribution. Secondly, to provide some useful hints for a Debian user who want to set up his system for Japanese learning either for himself or for a Debian novice. In consequence the reader of ...

Free Software In Biology Using Debian-Med: A Resource For Information Agents and Computational Grids

The development of Free Software has much in common with scientific research: the sharing of knowledge and to make progress. Software in science co-evolves with data that is available to feed it. In the data driven molecular sciences, the information technology is particularly concerned to ease the data flow between applications. This is of particular importance because of the biological data’s...
