Volume : I, Issue : V, June - 2011 Scheduling approaches for protein sequence analysis on the grid D. Ramyachitra DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : Most of the scientific applications requires a coordination of resources to solve
their problem. In particular, every day, hundreds and hundreds of protein
sequences are deposited in the data banks by the researcher. If a new researcher
wants to find a similar protein sequence like the one which he has, an extensive
database search is required. If the database is distributed in grid environment, the
search becomes easy. In practice, there are a number of schedulers applicable to
the grid environment. These schedulers can direct the users query to appropriate
resources to find the similar queries. Almost all the schedulers including the
optimization techniques lead to load imbalance on the resources. A scheduler has
to be designed in such a way that all the resources in the grid environment are
balanced. This paper discusses about the protein sequence analysis on the grid, the
schedulers available and load balancing in the grid environment. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : D. Ramyachitra, (2011). Scheduling approaches for protein sequence analysis on the grid.
