Using Pairwise Difference Features to Measure Temporal Changes in the Microbial Ecology
The exponential affordability of DNA sequencing technologies has enabled not only the accessible and rapid sequencing of the human genome, but the opportunity to sequence vast numbers of multi-cellular organism and the tiniest microbes.
Larry Smarr on Solving the Big Data Challenge in HPC – HPC Wire
September 25, 2015 - Internet pioneer Larry Smarr once had a vision of bringing connected computers out of academia and into the consumer world. Today, he envisions a second virtual highway, one capable of delivering on the promise of big data by leveraging fiber optic networks to transmit data at speeds of 10 gigabits to 100 gigabits per second.NCSA Colloquium | The Pacific Research Platform: a Science-Driven Big-Data Freeway System
