Galaxy
From Bioinformatics Core Wiki
Galaxy (http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu) is an open, web-based platform for accessible, reproducible, and transparent computational biomedical research.
- Accessible: Users without programming experience can easily specify parameters and run tools and workflows.
- Reproducible: Galaxy captures information so that any user can repeat and understand a complete computational analysis.
- Transparent: Users share and publish analyses via the web and create Pages, interactive, web-based documents that describe a complete analysis.
CRG local implementation
We are currently working in the implementation of a local Galaxy instance containing bioinformatics tools developed in-house (Gem, T-Coffee and TrimAl etc) in addition to some of the tools in the Galaxy tool shed. This local Galaxy implementation will run the jobs on a cluster of 72 cores and 48GB per node.
