Abstract

The huge amount of the biological and biomedical data increases demand for significant disk space and computer power to store and process them. From its beginning the Grid has been considered as possibility to provide such resources for the life sciences community. In this paper authors focus on the UNICORE system which enables scientists to access Grid resources in a seamless and secure way. Authors have used the UNICORE middleware to automate experimental and computational procedure to determine the spectrum of mutations in mitochondrial genomes of normal and colorectal cancer cells. The computational and storage resources have been provided by Polish National Grid Infrastructure PL-Grid.
