The prediction of the quaternary structure of biomolecular macromolecules is of paramount importance for fundamental understanding of cellular processes and drug design. In the era of integrative structural biology, one way of increasing the accuracy of modelling methods used to predict the structure of biomolecular complexes is to include as much experimental or predictive information as...
In the last years cloud computing has opened up interesting opportunities in many fields of scientific research. Cloud technologies allow to scale applications and adapt quickly, ease the adoption of new software development methods (e.g. DevOps), accelerating time to value.
However, the lack of integration of the existing infrastructures and the consequent fragmentation of the resources are...
The DIRAC Interware is the framework for building distributed computing systems which allows to integrate various kinds of computing and storage resources in a transparent way from the user’s perspective. Up until recently, the client communications with DIRAC were based on a custom protocol using X.509 PKI certificates. Following the recent move towards OIDC/OAuth2 based security...
The Institute of High Energy Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences is a comprehensive research base engaged in high energy physics, advanced accelerator physics and technology, advanced ray technology and its application, and has built a series of large-scale scientific facilities in China, such as Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC), China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS), High Energy...
The Coffea-casa analysis facility
prototype provides physicists with alternative mechanisms to access computing resources and explore new programming paradigms. Instead of the traditional command-line interface and asynchronous batch access, a notebook-based web interface and interactive large-scale computing is provided. The facility commissions an environment for end-users enabling...
In this paper, we shared on how students and staff from a Singapore tertiary institution acquired and reinforced their learning of Cloud Computing & Grid technologies through participation in applied projects on real-life scenarios in Healthcare, Mobile etc. Centre for IT Innovation (CITI) at School of Information Technology (SIT), Nanyang Polytechnic, is a key platform for staff and students...
