Fwd: [Qlustar HPC OS News] Qlustar Demo at DebianMed Sprint
Hi,
Roland Ferenbacher posted this message on his blog about the 2014
Debian-Med Sprint in Stonehaven last weekend. As I said at the meeting,
I think Qlustar deserves serious consideration for HPC bioinformatics.
Tony.

-------- QLUSTAR DEMO AT DEBIANMED SPRINT
------------------------------------
The Debian Med Sprint Weekend 2014 [1] was hosted in Stonehaven near
Aberdeen. The meeting was mainly about hacking on Bioinformatics software
that is of interest to the DebianMed [2] community. The attendants worked in
groups toward specific goals and a lot of progress was made in improving
existing and adding new software packages.
The talk on Qlustar by Tony Travis from Minke Informatics [3] focused on
Qlustar's suitability as a platform for Bio-Linux [4] HPC Clusters. A
cluster
running Qlustar/Bio-Linux was setup on-site for demonstration purposes by
Tony Travis and Luca Clivio from the Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacologic
Research [5]. The event was sponsored by Q-Leap Networks [6].
As a result of this meeting, Q-Leap decided to add general support for the
Debian-Med/Bio-Linux packages to the Qlustar Cluster OS. This will ensure a
smooth user experience when using these package collections on Qlustar
clusters.
