[Genome Biology - Latest Articles] Genome Biology | Full text | Searching for SNPs with cloud computing: The small differences in number of covered sites (<2% higher for Crossbow) and in percentage agreement (<0.1% lower for Crossbow) are likely due to the SOAPsnp study's use of additional filters to remove some SNPs prior to the agreement calculation, and to differences in alignment policies between SOAP and Bowtie. After filtering, Crossbow reports a total of 3,738,786 SNPs across all autosomal chromosomes and chromosome X, whereas the SNP GFF file available from the YanHaung site [23] reports a total of 3,072,564 SNPs across those chromosomes.

[IDC eXchange] IDC eXchange » Blog Archive » IDC Predictions 2010 Webcast Q&A: [from Frank Gens]”¦  ”I was referring to fact that, increasingly, we are seeing enterprise IT vendors create offerings designed, from the beginning, with the ability to scale down and out (in performance, pricing, distribution, etc.) to reach small and medium-sized enterprises, in order to bring those high-growth segments within their addressable market.  Further, many are doing so with the requirements of emerging markets in mind, given the spending growth multiple in those markets.  Some - including me - would argue that for many offerings, it’s becoming more important to scale out further: to compete in the consumer market.  Indeed, it is consumer-oriented cloud players like Google who are creating the greatest competitive stress in the IT market today.  And, obviously, this requirement has already manifested in the PC and mobile devices markets.  This need to conceive an offering with one of the first questions addressed being: “Can this offering reach consumers and SMBs - even in emerging markets?” is in sharp contrast to the IT market of twenty years ago, which was dominated, and driven, by large enterprise spending and requirements.”
