摘要

We present a grid-enabled problem solving environment (PSE), for multidimensional QTL analysis. The concept of a computational grid has not been fully realized within this and other application fields, mainly due to the need for significant rearchitecting of problem-specific code bases. Our environment allows transparent and efficient utilization of available heterogeneous computational resources. The PSE is built around the open source statistical software system R.rnThe PSE can be used as a grid-enabled workflow system by the end-users, which is intended to be biologists with a pragmatic approach to high performance computing. Use of the Grid Job Management Framework (GJMF) offers the PSE an abstractive and reliable job management interface that supports multiple grid middleware implementations. The use of R enables a tight workflow between computationally demanding analysis and further visualization or processing steps taking place locally, or even interactively, on the user's desktop. We have developed a prototype of such a system using existing components. The architecture has been chosen to ensure transparent use of different computational resources, even from an application developer perspective, by serializing the full state for a request and sending it to a different computational node for deserialization and execution. Based on this prototype, we illustrate some example workflows and timing results from actual multidimensional searches done on experimental data, which are now possible to complete within an hour rather than over the course of several days.
