Workflows over Grid-based Web services: General framework and a practical case in structural biology

EMBRACE COURSE

The EMBRACE course on " Workflows over Grid-based Web services: General framework and a practical case in structural biology" is aimed at people who are interested in knowing more about key emerging technologies in Bioinformatics, such as workflows, web services and massively distributed Grid computing, with a combination of theory and practical hands-on implementation sessions, and the addressing of a practical case in the field of Structural Biology.

The course will run in parallel during the first four days with a course organized by the NoE on Three-dimensional Electron Microscopy (3DEM). During the fifth day, Friday, attendees of both courses will join, together with representatives of the EGEE Grid Project, for a live, hands-on session demonstrating actual practical use of the Grid to solve an experimental 3DEM case. It is expected that through this unique practical experience we will all learn more about the possibilities and limitations of today's computational Grid technology and its impact on end users.
