  1. Having a Blast! on DiaGrid Carol Song Rosen Center for Advanced Computing carolxsong@purdue.edu December 9, 2011

  2. What is DiaGrid • A large, high-throughput, distributed computing system • Operated by Rosen Center (RCAC) • Using Condor to manage jobs and resources • Good for running serial computations on a large number of processors • Utilizing idle cycles • Including all Purdue clusters, lab computers, department computers, desktop, totaling 50,000+ cores • Purdue leading a partnership of 10 campuses and institutions

  3. How to Compute on DiaGrid • Direct access to Condor front end and use Linux command line • Software install, configuration, copy input data… • Documentation

  4. Going forward … … • DiaGrid + HUBzero • EASY! • Free account sign-up • Instant access • Hosted applications • How-to videos, examples, questions&answers to help you get started • Social networking for research (group, wiki, discussion board, wish list, ticket system) • BLAST!

  5. Plan for BLAST Release 1.0(Feb-Mar) • Ability for user to upload own databases • Can select private databases for search • Support larger input: 100s MBs • Support more blast flavors • Support output formats (?) Release 2.0 • Support more databases (swissprot? Ensembl? ) in additional to NCBI • A tool for managing and sharing research sequence databases. For example, user can specify whether to make a database: • Public • Shared with a group • private Prototype(Dec.) • User interface for running Blast in a browser • Input: type in or upload a file (FASTA) • Support blast flavors (blastn, blastx, blastp) • Choice of publicly available Blast databases (NCBI), updated regularly • Minimum input size supported: 10s of MBs • User can see search status and % completed • User can download output files

  6. We need your help • Early adopters to help us improve the tools (sign-up sheet or email Carol) • Use it and tell us your stories • Partnership in developing tools and the communities around the applications
