Abstract: | This paper presents an overview of computing and networkingfacilities developed by the Medical Research Council to provideonline computing support to the Human Genome Mapping Project(HGMP) in the UK. The facility is connected to a number of othercomputing facilities in various centres of genetics and molecularbiology research excellence, either directly via high-speedlinks or through national and international wideareanetworks. The paper describes the design and implementationof the current system, a client/server networkof Sun, IBM, DEC and Apple servers, gateways and workstations.A short outline of online computing services currently deliveredby this system to the UK human genetics research community isalso provided. More information about the services and theiravailability could be obtained by a direct approach to the UKHGMP-RC. |
