A Gateway for Phylogenetic Analysis Powered by Grid Computing Featuring GARLI 2.0

We introduce molecularevolution.org, a publicly available gateway for high-throughput, maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis powered by grid computing. The gateway features a garli 2.0 web service that enables a user to quickly and easily submit thousands of maximum likelihood tree searches or bootstrap searches that are executed in parallel on distributed computing resources. The garli web ...

Human-Powered Wearable Computing

Batteries add size, weight, and inconvenience to present day mobile computers. This paper explores the possibility of harnessing the energy expended during the user's everyday actions to generate power for his computer, thus eliminating the impediment of batteries. An analysis of power generation through leg motion is presented in depth, and a survey of less practical methods such as generation...

Building Distributed Language Resources By Grid Computing

The increasing demand for linguistic resources consisting of substantial amounts of data, such as large corpora, presents the challenge of building computational infrastructures capable of handling unprecedented amounts of information. One possible solution is the sharing of high-level, linguistically motivated and carefully balanced corpora for building one large language resource accessible w...

Grid computing and Cloud computing

Experiences with three practical meteorological applications with different characteristics are used to highlight the core computer science aspects and applicability of distributed computing to meteorology. Presenting Cloud and Grid computing this paper shows use case scenarios fitting a wide range of meteorological applications from 5 operational to research studies. The paper concludes that d...
