Linux Networx Cluster System Speeds Development of Disease Diagnostic Products (LinuxMedNews)
LinuxMedNews takes
a look at a Linux NetworX Evolocity II cluster that speeds gene
analysis. "Diagnostics help detect the presence of certain diseases
so proper medical treatment can begin in the early stages of the
disease. The Linux Networx system analyzes DNA and protein sequences to
locate specific disease targets. The targets are then used to develop
diagnostic products for diseases that are typically difficult to detect at
an early stage, such as ovarian cancer."
